We Can Help Your Company’s First Impression

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

When you first walk into a company’s office the first thing you probably see it their reception area.  The receptionist, if they have one is the first person you meet.  It is very important that you stress the imporatance of the first impression to this person.  Likewise, the way your office appears is also very important.  If your office is unprofessional looking, you will leave that impression or your guests, colleagues and others.  You want to leave the best first impression possible.  We can help you with your needs by simple things like wrapping that unseemly desk with a desk wrap.

We provide many other products for your business besides the event or trade show display. We mention the outdoor displays before and now we have other things.  Don’t forget we also have the best of the best in convention, trade show or event displays.  Not only can our professionals help you with those needs, we can also help you with your other needs.

As Summer Approaches Outdoor Displays Heat Up

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

Summer is on its way.  We are starting to see the seasons change and the heat start warming us from our long winter naps.  With the summer sun and the heat that comes with that, many companies are beginning to see a need to get that outdoor display. They are thinking outdoor barbecues, that parade on the 4th of July or other things we do while outdoors.

Outdoor displays can be used for company picnics, or any outdoor functions. They are simple and easy and most importantly they are memorable.  If you give someone some shade, they will remember it, and if your company has branded the display correctly it will be a good way to have your company stand out from the crowd.  Let us help you get your display designed.  Be it a dome shape a mushroom shape or otherwise, check out our displays.  We can help you provide some shade on a hot summer day.

Trade Show Booths: It’s All About The Brand

Tuesday, April 7th, 2009

Think back to the last time you were at an event or at a convention, meeting or trade show.  Can you remember the company that stood out in your mind?  What was their trade show booth like and how did it look?  If you can remember it, why?  They took the time to make it stand out and it represented their brand well.  This is the same thing you should consider when making a choice about the trade show booth or display you are going to use for your event.  We all remember what the saying is about proper planning.  It is no different when making your trade show display represent your brand well.  Take the time to consider all of the things you want your display to have and how it should look as the customer or person attending the event sees it for the first time.  These are things you should consider:

  • Does the exhibit booth represent your brand well?
  • Does the company logo stand out and look memorable?
  • Does the color and textures give it a memorable style?
  • Does the trade show display have the proper lighting?
  • Does it represent your mission and your message?

You may consider some of these questions when making a decision on how your trade show booth or exhibit display looks as a final product.  It takes a little planning and a little nbit of strategy but you should be memorable.  You want your customer or the other attendees to remember your company.  Sometimes it is as simple as thinking about your branding.

Trade Show Displays and Economic Stimulus

Tuesday, April 7th, 2009
With the economy taking its downturn, and with places like the Las Vegas Convention Center Authority reporting the cancellation of 340 conventions and trade shows, Event planners and their peers are beginning to look for ways to cut corners on their booth and display costs in the trade show and convention industry. This is especially true for planners or exhibitors that do many shows but are cutting back to only a single show that they do in a year. What do they use as their trade show display?

Some of the exhibitors are turning to renting their exhibit booths and displays. this way they don’t have to worry about paying for a booth or display that they may only use a single time in a year. They don’t have to store it and worry about its upkeep. Many exhibitors are also turning to rental displays as this is a better way to have multiple displays when they have shows at opposite ends of the country at the same time. They don’t have to purchase more than one display or booth.

Look into renting your trade show booth or display? You can save money and reduce the overall cost of your convention budget. In today’s economy every little bit counts. Let Godfrey Group help you.
