The Importance Of Professional Trade Show Exhibit Designs

By Young Lindsay


One of the most popular and effective ways in which companies can showcase their products and services is to attend exhibitions. Large exhibitions attract numerous buyers and it provides the exhibitor the rare opportunity to interact with clients and potential clients. It goes without saying that it is vital to put together a professional exhibit. A sloppy display reflects poorly on the exhibiting company. Most companies spend a fair amount of money and time on their trade show exhibit designs.

Effective stands need very careful thought. It is vital that the display, even if it consists of several components should be cohesive and that each component contributes to the central message the display is meant to convey. In most cases a display need to fit into a very specific space and companies that attend various exhibitions may want a display that can be adapted to different environments.

Exhibitors have a wide choice of products that can be used as part of a display. In most cases the space occupied by the display is defined by a backdrop that can consist of custom made wall paper or wall banners. The space itself is then populated with pop up banners, promotional materials and even gifts. Professional designers will make sure that there is a central theme that is repeated with all the various components of the display.

Choosing display products can be difficult. Certain products such as custom made wallpaper can be used only once. Companies that attend exhibitions on a regular basis will probably be better off choosing products that can be used over and over again. Factors such as ease of transport and storage may also play an important role.

Most companies that attend exhibitions have very specific goals that they wish to achieve during the event. Their displays must be designed specifically to help achieve those goals. In most cases it is best to opt for the services of professional designers. They know how to use different display products to complement each other and to develop the theme of the display. Very few companies boast the in house expertise necessary to create professional displays.

When appointing a professional exhibition designer it is best to choose a company that can handle all the work, including the creation of an initial blueprint and the actual production of the various display products. Clients should insist upon references and potential contractors should submit a portfolio of work previously completed. The chosen contractor should be briefed in detail on exactly what it is that the client wishes to accomplish with the display.

Some exhibitors choose not to man their stands at exhibitions. They believe that the various displays can convey their messages adequately. In most cases, however, it is important to have knowledgeable staff at hand to interact with visitors and to answer questions. Exhibitions are excellent for networking purposes and valuable contacts can be made with potential suppliers and clients. Those manning the exhibition should be chosen with the utmost care because they will be representative of the company.

Every business needs to take steps to increase their visibility. Exhibitions have proved to be extremely effective in achieving this goal. Choosing a professional designer to create the display will help ensure that the company is presented as professional, serious about its business and uncompromising when it comes to quality and service.
