Top Considerations When Making Custom Trade Show Exhibit Design

By Ida Dorsey


Competition calls for more creative measures. But creativity in business is a challenge. It is not just about you after all. It is about them. There is a difference. Unless you manage to combine your creativity to the wants of your market, then you will not be that visible. The competition at present demands a business to outstand, and not just to be visible.

The good news is, you can be as visible as you want. We are now on the digital age and the possibilities of promotion is almost limitless. As long as you have something to offer and an idea to begin with then things will follow. Custom trade show exhibit design is one good way to start your venture.

Now that we have established its potential, it is time to see what are the factors that it should carry. Planning is a must. It helps you create a blueprint on the things that is necessary for the success of the event. Let us take a quick look at the top things you should not miss.

First is the branding. You as the owner or the manager should have a clear understanding of the identity of the product or service that you are selling. This is where you pattern the design for your exhibit. For instance, if your brand color is blue, then a dominant blue on the exhibit should be reflected.

Target niche. As mentioned, this exhibit is for them and not just for you. You do the organizing, preparation and the like but at the end of the day, the effectiveness of all you have done is measured by the response of your market. If your niche are male, adult, businessmen but found a lot of teen girls on the event, then maybe something about it had piqued their interest. And maybe, you did not do well enough in impressing your real target.

Three, the location. A great design will still not be effective in the absence of a good location. In order to optimize the great benefit of an exhibit, you need to situate it at a strategic location. This means that the place has to be accessible most especially to your main market. If you target the teens, you would not want to place your exhibit somewhere near the nursery school.

Money allocation. Now we have the issue of money. The general rule is, you spend according to your original budget. Going beyond it might yield some problems later on. Also you have a lot of choices. For instance, you can look for services online that caters to making trade show designs. There are several services available. You can compare their price offers.

Display of products. Do not underestimate what a good packaging can do to your products. They are the main stars of the event. Make sure they take the limelight. Also, do not forget to include product features on your display. Some of the customers may want to read a short background of it.

After taking a look at these factors, you are now ready to act. Be bold and ask suggestions from your business partners, family members or closes friends. This will be a big event for you and your business. Make it special.
