Advertising sales house
An advertising sales house is the entity that sells a medium's advertising space to advertisers. For a trade show organiser or a venue manager, it is the mechanism that turns visitor traffic into revenue.

A trade show organiser already has an asset: the flow of visitors it has brought together. Ad sales consist of selling exposure to that flow (signage, screens, zone sponsorship) to its own exhibitors and to outside advertisers.
A mobile medium adds inventory that did not exist before: placements that move through the aisles, sellable by time slot and by screen face. Depending on traffic and the number of advertisers, such a set-up can be considered on a revenue-sharing basis rather than as straight hire.
