How Trade Show Exhibit Designs Can Develop Your Brand

By Alta Alexander


Staging your brand in a trade show is something that requires proper planning and management. You do not want your plan to be a flop and therefore, you will do anything to outshine your rivals. Pre-show promotions, post show follow ups, and on site activities, are things you have to strategize. But one important element you should get it correct is your booth. Having trade show exhibit designs for your trade show event gives you exactly what you want.

It is an opportunity where a company showcases its products and describes its services while also being able to create that important first impression. Information from Simmons Market Research Bureau indicated that 91 percent of people who appeared in trade show events expressed their observation as an extremely useful source for products purchasing information higher than other sources such as on site visits from representatives.

Almost half of the respondents from the research indicated that they had purchased a service or product at the event. The number of people you get in a expo event may be big than you get from sales calls. However, it is the way you engage and approach the prospects that determines how they are going to turn to be customers.

It can determine between success and failure. You have just been given the mandate to plan for the next expo and you do not know where to begin, then you need to look at a number of things. The audience, what you need to achieve, the design of your booth, and how you will handle the crowd, are things you would have to put in the list.

It is not a time for jumping with your speech and approaching the prospects unprofessionally. It is not a time to sit on the chair under the booth but stand upright and in front. You do not want prospects to meet you seated. While you will have a seat reserved, it should only be there for use occasionally.

Having properly crafted marketing material will boost your event. The materials are intended to inform the prospects of the brand, products, and services. You may have things like product sheets, promotional items, sales literature, and follow up information packets, needless to mention business cards.

The booth and the display stands are also critical. The good thing with the booth displays is that they can be seen from a distance. People can see them from far and they will make their way right into your booth. The size, weight, and material for the display will matter a lot. If you can get minimal weight while also having a highly visible display, it will help in cutting down on the cost of transport. Budget is an important element you have to work on.

But these are not only the factors to consider. You want to check on the space and dimensions of your booth so that you have displays which will fit perfectly. In most cases, you have limited space to use when setting up displays. Think of incorporating layers of information such as portable display in the middle area to provide brochures and sign ups sheets. Have a big pay off at the back of your booth.
