Exhibition Graphics – 5 Ideas for Exhibition Signage

Posted on June 5th, 2009

With the graphics, signage and printing industries adopting new hardware and adapting new software all the time, there are many different ways you can use signage on your exhibition stand to help you ‘stand out’. Because of all the advancements in the industry , making production of high quality printing and graphics easier, prices are coming down too.

Here are some ideas you might wish to think about for your next exhibition or trade show stand;

1. Pull up banner stands

Pull up banners come in a few different sizes – usually 2100mm high. You can get different quality stands depending on budget and intended use. These can be a great option if you are planning to re-use your stand at different venues, or even if you want to use your banner stand alone after the show, maybe in your reception area of your office. You can also change the graphic without needing to buy a new stand so they can be a good investment.

2. Hanging Banners

Whenever you visit an exhibition hall, you will see banners of all shapes and sizes hanging from the truss. This is an ideal way to advertise your whereabouts in a busy exhibition hall. Also to attract attention before visitors even get close to your stand. Again, because of advancements in technology, these can be produced fairly cheaply. Obviously price will depend on quality of materials used but for a one, two or three day show you may only want something short term anyway.

Five Reasons to Custom Design Your Exhibition Stand

Posted on April 14th, 2009

Exhibition stands at trade shows or expos are an investment by businesses and if you are marketing your company at a trade show, you want to be sure the costs are not wasted. Custom designed exhibition stands will attract more attention and will give you better returns for your marketing expenditure dollar.

Custom Design Your Exhibition Stand for More Space
A modular exhibition stand may not have all the space you really need to display your products to the best effect. Sometimes, a modular exhibition stand can limit your design because you may not be able to show signs where you want to or to have the banner stands at the corners of the stand to attract attention. A custom designed exhibition stand can create an open space in your allocated area in the trade show.

Custom Design Your Exhibition Stand to Attract Attention
When you create a custom designed exhibition stand, you have more options available to you on how you will attract consumer attention at the trade show. This means you can use attention grabbing devices, such as pop up displays, banner stands, pull up banners, and display stands, to the best effect to attract the most attention to your exhibition stand.

Designing Your Exhibition Stand

Posted on January 20th, 2009

If you are planning to attend a trade show or exhibition as part of your company’s 2009 marketing strategy, you will need to ensure you design your exhibition stand for maximum impact. Remember that most people will walk around the entire convention centre and will see many exhibition stands. Good design will encourage people to remember your company’s stand.

An attractive exhibition stand will entice customers to the stand to find out more about your product. You need to be able to grab the attention of the people wandering past, and encourage the customers to stop at your stand. Combining the elements of good exhibition stand design below, will help you to create a centre of attention at your stand.

Design Element 1 – Signage
Well-designed exhibition stands use signs to draw customers to the stand, and to provide product information and brand recognition to customers who walk past. There are many different options for signs, and it is best to consider which sorts of signs you will use several weeks in advance.

Exhibition hire companies can provide pull up banners, banner displays, and promotional displays or banner stands for your signs. Consider how many signs you need, and how much information you propose to put on each sign. Sometimes simple signs have more impact than complicated banners with lots of information that no one will bother reading. When designing your exhibition stand, allow for the signage you have selected.

Design Element 2 – Product Display
A major part of the exhibition stand design is to display your products to your customers. Design elements to consider include how big your product is, whether you need to hire shelves or exhibition furniture to raise the products to eye height to passers by, whether you want pop up displays, a portable display, or demonstration space.

Making the Most of Trade Show Signage and Graphics

Posted on January 5th, 2009

Signage and graphics can be the key to a successful exhibition, if used well. Taking some time to plan your promotional displays can really boost sales and interest in your exhibition stand. There are so many options to create a truly eye-catching and professional looking exhibition booth using signage and graphics that sometimes the choice can feel overwhelming. It doesn’t have to be difficult to select the right signage options for your stand and these tips will help you.

Firstly, consider the message you want to send to prospective customers. A good three to four word slogan that is memorable will often help customers retain the image of your exhibition booth in their mind. Signage works in three ways: it attracts attention, aids customer’s memory of your stand, and presents a professional image of your company.

Graphics and pictures will help to attract attention to your stand. If you have a graphic of your company logo, ensure it is hanging in a visible location on your exhibition stand. This will enable customers to associate your stand with your company, and the brochure they take with them.

Remember that the customers will likely pass many other exhibition stands in the day, and will collect promotional materials from those stands too. When reviewing the catalogues or brochures, they need to be able to associate the materials with the right stand, and good graphics and signs on the stand help to do this.
