What is it about this time of year that inspires us to want to begin a new? To strip down all that old wall paper, throw out that couch that is long past its prime, and inject some color back into our lives. There’s something about late winter and early spring that makes us want to get past all the garbage in life and get back to basics. Spring cleaning fever is a very real thing that affects us all in different ways. For some it may mean giving that house a scrubbing the likes of which it has never seen before. For others it may mean getting those weeds out of the garden, tilling up the soil, and planting the seeds for this year’s harvest. It could mean the end of a relationship that has simply run its course. In business terms though getting back to basics is more than an infuse of color or a change in your presentation. To the business minded getting back to basics means getting rid of the hype and getting back to what made them successful to begin with.
This isn’t to say that a trade show display with tons of flashing lights, video motors at every turn of the head, and custom logos is a bad thing (standing out is never a bad thing), but there’s definitely something to be said for a simple fold out table covered in a professionally designed table skirt featuring your company’s name and logo, and a table top display that gets to the facts of who you are. When looking to purchase a new product more than anything else today’s consumers want honesty. They want to be able to trust that what you are presenting them will do what is promised, will last as long as it should, and won’t leave them feeling as if they wasted their money the moment they exchange their hard earned money. While large scale displays and exhibits are sure to impress and are sure to be crowd pleasers, stripping away all the layers of hype and simply giving consumers an honest representation of who you are can also be an extremely satisfying approach to marketing your product.
If you feel that your approach to trade show marketing has gotten stale and are looking for a fresh new approach, maybe instead of more the answer is less. A custom designed table top display with table skirt combined with an honest heartfelt presentation could be the very thing that sends your sales skyrocketing!

We’ve talked a lot about first impressions lately specifically how to execute the perfect handshake and the importance of remembering first names, both of which are extremely important when attempting to build a relationship with a customer. If you are salesman who travels all across the country bouncing from one meeting after another, then probably more than anyone else you know how important it is to be prepared when meeting a new client for the first time. A good salesman has to somehow find a way to put all that stress from the hours they were delayed at the airport, the horrible taxi cab ride over, not to mention the busted elevator, and present themselves with confidence to the customer.
The last thing a salesman has time for is to fiddle around with a display that requires a degree from M.I.T. to setup. Instead they need something that takes little effort and time, yet looks like it cost a million bucks. The ShowMax Table Top Display does all of this without sacrificing the quality that people have come to expect from Godfrey. What makes the ShowMax simply the best portable table top display on the market isn’t the fact that it gets one or two things right, but that it succeeds on several levels including:
- Portability- The ShowMax is extremely lightweight and features two in-line skate wheels allowing for easy transport. Plus it folds up into a convenient size complete with a handle at the top.
- Setup- Simply unfold the case, attach a custom designed header, a couple halogen lights at the top, and in seconds your presentation is ready to commence
- Quality- Like all of Godfrey’s displays and exhibits, the ShowMax is custom built to the customer specifications. This means that the customer decides just how much detail they want the display to have and which of the Velcro ready fabrics work best for their particular needs.
Available with optional transport bag, the ShowMax Table Top Display is the perfect display for anyone who finds themselves having to give presentations repeatedly and is in need of a quick and easy display made from the highest quality materials.

We talk a lot here about grand exhibits, large fabric walls, and eco-friendly displays, but not all trade show displays are what they seem. In fact you might be surprised at what can be accomplished with the use of a simple folding table. Whether you bring your own or rely on the event organizer to provide one, a folding table combined with a few simple touches from Godfrey might just be the thing you’ve been looking for to turn you next show into something special.
The first thing you need to do is answer the question, when is a folding table not a folding table? Have you seen one these tables after they’ve been shipped, stored, and slid all over the place? They are dirty. They quickly start to show every dent, ding, and scuff. Soon they become so unappealing that you just can’t be expected to give a worthwhile presentation. Not to mention they limit your display space and feature nothing in the realm of customized graphics. So when is a folding table not a folding table? When it’s covered up by a brightly colored table throw. Covering all sides of the table and featuring a customized logo made to your specifications, a wrinkle-resistant table throw covers all those unpleasant looking blemishes and gives your table a professional appearance.
As great as a table throw can be though, it’s basically just the foundation for what could be an even greater sales experience. What you need next is a structure that easily folds out, provides tons of shelf space, and literally takes that Plain Jane table to the next level. One great thing about table top displays are that there are a ton of different styles to choose from. From the simple fold out variety, to the Space Station Popup, to the Roll N’ Go, to the Brief Case style; table top displays are portable, light weight, fully customizable, and are sure to give you a show room quality display perfect for large events or one-on-one customer meetings.
The next time you are looking for a quick and easy display that is full of options and can be customized to feature your company logo, remember that simple folding table and just what can be accomplished with a bit of creativity.

Over the course of researching what I want to share on this blog over the course of a week, I continuously catch myself thinking that I’ve seen everything that Godfrey can do only to be surprised yet again by something amazing that I never knew about. This week alone I’ve shared with you the perfect tent for outdoor events and gone over some of the benefits of offering your trade show visitors a chance to sit and take a break in a set of classic looking scoop-back seats. I’m always bragging about our pop-up displays and grand fabric structures. From poster frames, to table wraps, to LED displays, to inflatable props; Godfrey just never seems to run out of designs to meet your needs. What you may not know is that my latest discovery of what Godfrey offers just might change the way you plan your next trade show event.
Before I share my new find I want to discuss just how easy it is to start working on your custom display. The first thing you need of course is an idea. Do you want something large and elaborate or are you looking for something small that can quickly be taken down to carry with you? Once you have a basic idea of what you want it’s time to meet your personal project manager. This is the person who will help you take your idea and turn it into a fully customized display. Together you will work out the basics, come up with a concept, and from there everything is sent to our design team. The design staff takes what you and your project manager have done so far and turns those ideas into something tangible that will be submitted to you for approval. Once this is complete it’s just a matter of time before your custom display is built. During this process you will be notified regularly about what progress is being made and you will even receive pictures of how everything is coming together.
Next comes that amazing discovery I mentioned above that just proves that Godfrey is the best at what they do. Along with your display you will have access to a support manager that will actually accompany you to the tradeshow and help you setup your booth. That’s right! Godfrey actually has a team of job managers that will show up and make sure everything is installed just as you ordered. And it doesn’t stop there! In b
etween shows you can even ship us back the display where we can then service, refresh the graphics, or even upgrade your design!
From start to finish and long after the show is over, Godfrey is here to give you the tools you need to make your next event the largest ever! Call us now and get your project manager working on a new design today!!

Literature displays, portable kiosks, and table wraps are great tools to have with you when showing off your ideas and products to the public, but all three pose the same problem for those that sell items that are considered hands-off……they give the customer too much room to touch, feel, and possibly damage the item being displayed. I once knew a guy that worked for a publishing house. One of their bestsellers was a book that described and priced rare coins. As part of the promotion for the book, my friend would visit several trade shows and use a couple of rare coins he had purchased over the years to show people how easy it was to use the book. He kept running into the problem of people wanting to touch the coin that he had paid so much for. Since the money added value to the books he was trying to sell, he had to find a way to display the items without making them so easily accessible.
The body’s natural oils have always been known to breakdown and cause damage to antiques or rare items whether it be books, metals, or fabrics; that’s why it’s important to limit contact with these types of things. Plus anything of value can easily be stolen hence vendors who sell these types of items need some security to avoid loose hands taking something that can’t be replaced. Thankfully for those that prefer their exhibit items to been seen and not touched, there are Merchandise displays available. Similar to what you would see in a jewelry or retail store, merchandise displays feature a clear see through case with a sliding door in the back and optional shelf perfect for rare coins, jewelry, artifacts, or anything else that you want to show off the public. Each display comes with a base available in a wide variety of colors and even the option of a door in order to give you some secure storage space underneath. Portable, lightweight, and easy to break down, like all things offered from Godfrey each display can be customized to feature your company logo.
If you have been searching for a better way to show off your products or simply want some extra security, than look no further! Easy to transport and featuring multiple designs to choose from, these Merchandise displays are just what you have been waiting for. Call us today at 800-789-9394!

As we’ve shown over the past few weeks specifically in talking about such products as our inflatables and rubber floor tiles; Godfrey sells more than just a wide range of kiosks and pop-up displays. In fact no matter how big or small the event, our products are proven to increase sales and give our customers the edge they need to stand out from the crowd. Today I want to highlight one of these products that while a definite asset to anyone planning to attend a trade show, is the perfect fit for smaller venues where it’s just you and handful of people present. Believe it or not I’m talking about Table Throws and how you can turn an ordinary table into a professional looking display with the Godfrey touch.
Even as I write this on college campuses, in shopping malls and retail stores, in conference rooms and break rooms, all across the country presentations are being given on anything and everything imaginable. Corporations are laying out their new insurance benefits to their employees. Credit card companies are attempting to reach out to students on their way to class. Banks are offering their latest rates in hopes of setting up tons of new checking and savings accounts. Each of these are being done with little fan fair or much in the way of elaborate setups. Most of the time the entire presentation is given in front of a simple fold out table with a few brochures laying about. Well why not take that Plain Jane table add a professional looking custom made full length Table Throw and turn that presentation into something guaranteed to catch every one’s eye.
Far more than just an ordinary table cloth, these Table Throws are one-piece table covers made of fabric that covers all sides of the display table, are made of wrinkle-resistant polyester twill, and are available blank with no imprint or with one, two or full-color graphic prints. In addition to Table Throws, Godfrey also offers the TranZibit Portable Trade Show Table with optional table skirt. Together these two amazing products can be easily transported, require little room in terms of storing between presentations, and will help you avoid those risky situations where you arrive to find that setup materials have not been provided.
If you’re someone who is continuously giving presentations at smaller single company events or if you’re a trade show regular looking to add an extra touch to your display, Table Throws are just what you need to turn that ordinary table into on extraordinary display.

I’m a NO person. Regardless of the question, forget the circumstances; I don’t care what the product is….my first answer is always NO. That two word response is my first line of defense. It saves me money. It keeps me from getting ripped off. It may stop some good times from coming my way, but it also has saved my life a few times. NO gives me time to think. Time for my sub-concious to chew on things and figure out the Pro’s Vs Con’s. I come from a long line of No people. My father and his father are no people. My brother is a Yes person. He’s the black sheep of the family. Never met a gimmick or opportunity he didn’t dive head first into.
Although I’m a self proclaimed NO what I really am is a closet MAYBE person. I can be convinced that the latest must have product or idea is the real deal, I just need to do it on my own time without somebody being in my face. I like pamphlets, literature, even DVD’s that I can take with me to watch later when I don’t feel pressured. YES and NO people are vocal about their opinions. MAYBE consumers are too busy doing our research to say how we feel right a way. You can grab our attention with custom graphics, made to order designs, and interactive displays, but it’s the literature that gets us in a mood to spend our money. We love information booths that allow us to pick up a couple brochures so we can read up on a new idea in the safety of our own homes. Forget the clowns, flashing lights, and give-aways; what we want is a video or audio demonstration that we can catch from the sidelines.
This in not to say that MAYBE’s can’t be turned into YES people if the moment or pitch is just right. The first time I saw my wife was a YES moment. The first time I heard my favorite band was a YES moment. Just the idea of a tablet computer has me screaming YES as loud as I can. All it takes is for someone or something to hit that button that I didn’t even know existed for me to devote my entire existence to obtaining the latest object of my affection. Whether it be an iPod, a 3-D television, or bagel maker, I may say NO on the outside, but I’m already talking MAYBE on the inside.
What kind of response does your display elicit? Is your design one that has the ability to turn even the most rigid of NO’s into YES consumers? Are you giving the MAYBE’s the facts they need to feel educated? If you’re ready to turn all your potential customers in YES consumers, contact Godfrey now and let us show you how the experts do it!!
