Captivating The Audience Through Outstanding Exhibition Displays

By Carl Campbell


Many people who attend trade events participate this kind of occasion on a regular basis. These veteran attendees make for the best unofficial consultants as to how exhibition displays can be effective in drawing in the spectators and captivating their attention for several minutes, which is sufficient for a firm to promote its products. Some trade show old timers could name several things that they like to see more of in exhibition displays, and some of these are given in the following.

Most veteran trade show goers wish or expect to witness more exhibits that are fresh, innovative, and new, as revealed by marketing researches. Business firms that always showcase old products and use old exhibition displays in every trade show tend to lose followers and regular clients.

If your firm can't think of any other display for this year's trade event, how about temporarily retiring the product displays and instead focus on exhibiting the key work ethics that makes your company stand out from the competition, or you can do an exhibit featuring the executives of your company - allowing the spectators to really understand what the driving force behind your will to succeed is. Old-timers in the trade show circuit would really appreciate a move like this, considering that not many people really know what the company is all about; attendees just take it for granted that these firms are trying to sell them something.

Many business firms think that those attending trade shows are already happy if they are given some corporate tokens as keepsakes and souvenirs from the company. After all, the best things in life are free; but trade event goers actually get disappointed with the companies because the giveaways of corporate pens, mugs, pencils, shirts, stickers, and badges are really quite useless. In order for attendees to appreciate your company's exhibition displays more, offer tokens of real value. And in this day and age, it would usually be information. For this, you could offer an interactive product demonstration, give out booklets on pressing social concerns, or you could sponsor a short seminar on current trends.

Veteran trade show attendees quickly tire of firms who fail to stand out from the competition. This copycat approach is a really big turnoff. Veterans are quick to spot what is following what trend. Always make sure that your concepts are original and memorable.
