Your trade show exhibit could make or break your ability to generate leads and increase your return on investment. Here are some tips for maximizing your display.
Strong trade show displays are essential to highlight what your company has to offer and draw showgoers’ attention—potential clients and consumers. You won’t be able to take advantage of the numerous networking opportunities at trade shows, including generating leads and establishing your brand, without an attractive display. Are you prepared to stand out from the crowd of exhibitors and make a statement? Here are a few design tips to keep in mind.
Make the show interactive
It won’t be as effective to entice visitors with passive activities like watching a video screen as it will be to use interactive features. Attendees enjoy playing the games at trade shows in the hopes of winning a reward. The more time visitors spend at your booth, the more time your representatives have to engage with prospective consumers. To persuade consumers to connect with your material, use touch screen technology, conduct giveaways, or offer interactive product demos.
Try to leave some empty space in your booth
While you don’t want your booth to be empty space, you should be aware of the advantages of doing so. Keep it tidy and welcoming rather than stuffing it full of heavy inventory and awkward furniture. With this additional room, you can make sure that the consumer feels at ease when conversing with your employees.
Similarly, your graphics should have negative space. The general guideline for booth graphics is that there should be 40% empty space in each graphic.
The main message should be brief, large, and at a higher-than-waist height
Place all of your important messages higher than 3 to 4 feet to make sure they can all be seen clearly. To strengthen your brand, affix your company emblem to numerous parts of the exhibit. Keep your message concise and limited to a few powerful headlines that are printed in a large, easy-to-read font for easy distance viewing.
Leverage the element of surprise
Place an object that doesn’t belong in the center of your exhibit space if you really want to catch people’s attention. Whatever you do, attempt to elicit from the consumer a sense of amazement, amusement, or, better yet, a must-know response that compels them to interact with your brand.
When planning your trade show booth, there are a lot of design alternatives to take into account. Try some of these suggestions at your next event to leave visitors with a positive impression.
