Why to Hire your Exhibition Furniture

Posted on July 27th, 2010

If you want your exhibition stand at the trade show or industry expo to be a success, you need the design of the stand to attract potential customers. Hiring exhibition furniture is a great way to ensure your stand design works well.

Exhibition stand space is usually small, and since you pay for the space your company is using, you need to be sure you are using the space wisely. Exhibition furniture for hire is designed specifically for exhibitions and hiring furniture means you can design your exhibition stand properly.

Hiring exhibition furniture will give your exhibition stand a professional appearance. Many companies, especially small businesses, make the mistake of bringing in a hodge-podge of eclectic furniture to fill the stand. Unfortunately, this just makes the expense of the exhibition stand more costly, as you are likely to drive customers away because of the unprofessional appearance.

You have many options to make your stand as professional as possible, and the cost of hiring the exhibition furniture is minimal, compared to purchasing furniture you may never use again.

Good Exhibition Stand Design

Posted on July 21st, 2010

Lantus&Apidra_2009_Photos-1If you have ever had an interior designer visit your house or office, you will know that good design doesn’t just happen. Designers will plan right down to the last detail. If you want an exhibition stand that attracts the crowd and generates business for your company from the trade show or exhibition, you need to plan the stand design carefully.

As with any design of a space, the use of space must be practical. Think carefully about where people will stand, both your staff manning the stand, and the customers visiting the stand. Good exhibition stands make the most of the space and the designer will create a space that is both useful and attractive to passers by.

If your budget allows, a custom designed exhibition stand allows greater flexibility for portable displays and different signage options such as pull up banners, pop up displays, and product displays. Continue Reading.

Using Social Media to Improve your Trade Show Experience

Posted on July 8th, 2010

Sony_Screens_3DTaking part in a trade show is not something you will take on lightly. It can be expensive both in monetary terms and your time to organise everything.  You will however reap huge rewards if done properly. To get the most out of your exhibition or trade show experience, you need to publicise the event and your involvement in it, so that your prospective customers will know how, when and where to find you.
Whether you’re up to date with social media trends or not there is no denying that used correctly, it can be a very powerful marketing tool…… and it’s free!

Here are some things you can do using social media to attract and inform your potential customers;

  1. Create a ‘Facebook’ page for your business then email your customers or prospective customers and invite them to become a ‘fan’. You can then post updates directly on to your page and reach several people at once. You could even post some kind of special offer to be claimed at the show if people sign up as ‘fans’.

Things to consider when choosing your Exhibition Stand Package.

Posted on July 1st, 2010

McAfeeGood Design
Although you are hiring a pre-designed exhibition stand package, good design is still important. A good exhibition stand designer will make a packaged stand just as noticeable as a custom designed stand. Let your exhibition company know your budget and get some different options from them. Ask them to move things around if necessary to fit your own requirements and product.

Easy Assembly
If you plan to travel with your exhibition stand and want to be able to save on install and pack down fees at different venues, you will need to take into account the versatility and easy assembly of your chosen stand package. A well designed stand should be easy and quick to install, saving you on-site labour costs.

Light Weight
Perhaps not the most obvious of considerations but you will save money on transportation if your stand is light weight. Also, install will be made easier if the actual components are lighter to move around. You could save on forklift costs if your stand can be erected by manpower alone.
