This week we talking about the one thing on everyone’s mind and that’s New Year’s resolutions. Whether you are planning on quitting smoking, joining a gym, or answering the phone when your mom calls every day, no doubt you have something special in mind that if you could just stick to it might change your entire life. New Year’s resolutions aren’t just for individuals though. In fact setting a list of goals for the coming business year is always a good practice to maintain and could end up making you a ton of profits. On Monday we discussed a type of resolution that is sure to be at the top of everyone’s list, going green with the help of Godfrey’s PodForum series of environmentally friendly trade show displays. Today we want to focus on another way to save, but this time we want to target your wallet with the help of our trade show rental program.
One question we get time and time again about display renting is “How can it help my business?” The answer is “How can it not?” Regardless of whether you operate a retail store, a mail order company, or even a mall kiosk, renting a display is not only a smart decision it may just be the key to opening up doors you never knew existed.
How renting a display can help your business
1) Allows you to be in two places at the same time. We understand you can’t always control other people’s schedules and that at times it seems almost impossible to be at all the places that you would like to at the same time. So what do you do on those days you need to be at the big trade show in Chicago, at the local union meeting near your headquarters in New York, and still keep someone at your flagship store? Whether it’s a onetime thing or you find yourself continuously pulled in multiple directions, a rental display can help by easily giving you a presence where the help is needed.
2)Testing out new ideas becomes easier. Got an idea that just might change the way you market your company? Want to test out the waters of the trade show market without having to risk losing a ton of cash? Thinking about expanding but not sure if now is the best time? Renting a display takes care of all of these problems without causing you to over extend your budget
With the New Year quickly approaching now is the time make those changes and take those chances you have been chewing over for months. Thanks to Godfrey’s display rental program you are one click away from gaining access to a display that includes such options as: a standard portable display with graphics creating a custom look; a combination of our systems configured for a custom look; a customized TechForm or Truss beam system; a complete custom PodForum system.
Don’t hesitate contact us today online or at 1-800-789-9394!!!!!

This week the White House commission in charge of handling the current deficit situation released their initial proposal which includes drastic cuts in all areas of government spending. According to a report from CNN” Their package touched every aspect of government, combining deep spending cuts with tax increases to eventually bring both expenditures and revenue to 21 percent of gross domestic product.” In a lot of ways a trade show is microcosm for what is happening with our current economy. Large trade shows are like cities in that you have a main strip containing food and novelty vendors, a mix of popular companies that rank high in terms of name recognition, and then you have all these smaller lesser known start-ups with hopes of getting a boost from the attention that bigger events bring. All are there for one reason and that’s to grow their business. Like all the industries and corporations that make up this country’s economy though, expenses start to get in the way of this growth. Travel costs for both employees and materials, food costs, expenses associated with securing a spot at the event, hotel costs, wages….all of these subtract from any revenue that is gained as a result of attending.
With tons of expenses eating at the bottom line, in order to make sure your next trade show event is profitable you might want to consider renting one of Godfrey’s custom trade show exhibits. Don’t let the name fool you, the Godfrey Display Rental Program allows your company to receive a top of the line exhibit with options that include custom graphics, a wide variety of configurations, easy portability, and includes variations of our best selling TechForm, Trussbeam, and PodForum systems. All at an affordable price guaranteed not to take a chunk out your trade show budget.
Perfect for those looking for an amazing displayexhibit but want to test the waters first or for anyone who finds themselves double booked and in need of a temporary fix to get them through the busy season, the Godfrey Display Rental Program is one way to cut your trade show spending in half without taking anything away from the quality of your presentation. Contact us today at 1-800-789-9394 to speak to a personal project manager and get on the path to larger profits.

Believe it or not the holidays are just about here and for retailers that depend on these last three months to make up for the loses experienced during the last nine, it’s now or never. While hopes may be high for big sales, according to some forecasters the reality is that the economy has simply made it too tough for consumers who otherwise spend loads of cash on gifts. In a recent report from CNBC “A record high 43 percent of American shoppers plan to spend less during the last quarter of the year than they did in 2009, while only 11.0 percent expect to spend more this Christmas” So what are smaller retailers supposed to do in order to get an edge this Christmas? Simply put they have to go where the consumers are.
This year Toys R Us who in years past have themselves filed bankruptcy will be opening up 600 express stores in malls and retail outlets all across the country. These temporary stores are projected to hire some 10,000 employees and if all goes well many stores may stick around long after the holidays are over. While the toy store giant may be larger than your average mom and pop store, the strategy they are employing is something that can be done by just about anyone.
Portable kiosks are easy to install, simple to transport, and could be the key to making this Christmas season the best yet. Godfrey has everything your company needs to get you to where the people are. Whether you prefer something elaborate such as a Grand Format Fabric Graphic Structure complete with fabric panels that are designed to define your space while reinforcing your brand or something more along the lines of an information display with optional video/audio features and custom pedestals, setting up a portable store front is easy. Featuring amazing graphics, custom logos, and a team of designers all focused on giving you the best display possible, Godfrey is your one stop shop for all your display needs. Plus don’t forget our display rental program which allows you to test out a display while saving you money!

It was just last month that we brought the story about growing concerns that the economy was going to take a step back from its current growth trend. At the time some experts were saying that due to an unexpected slow down they “were expecting, raising concern about growth – or even another recession – in the months ahead.” Adding that “People are continuing to cut back, and that could mean that third-quarter growth will be the worst since the end of the recession. The slowing growth path leaves the possibility of a double-dip recession on the table.” Well now comes a report from American Express that not only contradicts this report, but it appears that Corporate America may just be looking once again at putting more money into the trade show market. According to Gunther Bright, VP of the credit card giants Global Client Group, “We’re seeing a significant shift to a more positive outlook among finance executives as companies have moved from simply surviving the present to investing in growth for the future. At the same time, the experience of the recession set the stage for a newfound and long-term focus on financial discipline and management rigor”
Regardless of which report you believe is the most realistic view of what is about to happen to the economy, it’s hard to deny the fact that the only way to know for sure is to get in there and test things out for yourself. In the past this may have meant spending thousands of dollars on a custom trade show display and accepting the consequences win, lose, or draw, but with Godfrey’s display rental program figuring out which style of exhibit will generate the most sales for your company has never been easier.
Godfrey’s rental program offers customers a chance to see for themselves just what a custom designed trade show exhibit can do. Featuring a combination of custom built options including the use of the proven Truss and PodForum systems, rental displays are heavy on the eyes and light on the budget with most costing under 50-60% the price of regular display.
In today’s tough economic times, companies can’t always afford to take a chance on something new. Godfrey understands these difficulties and that’s why they are offering vendors a chance to see their amazing designs in action at a reduced cost. If your company is thinking about getting back on the road or is simply in need of a new trade show exhibit guaranteed to turn heads, think of Godfrey and think of our display rental program!

A recent report concerning the country’s slagging economyjust came out this week and while it’s not bad, it definitely leaves a lot to be desired. According to the report from CNN “ The U.S. economy continued to grow during the second quarter, the government reported Friday. But the pace slowed more than economists were expecting, raising concern about growth – or even another recession – in the months ahead. Gross domestic product, the broadest measure of the nation’s economic activity, rose at a 2.4% annual rate during the three months ended June 30, the Commerce Department said. The sluggish pace was down from the upwardly revised 3.7% growth rate in the first quarter, and missed economists’ forecast for a 2.5% increase.” As part of the same story one of the country’s tope economic analysts goes on to say that “People are continuing to cut back, and that could mean that third-quarter growth will be the worst since the end of the recession. The slowing growth path leaves the possibility of a double-dip recession on the table.”
If you are one of the thousands of companies out there they make their living by traveling from trade show to trade show, the thought of an even further slowing of consumer spending has got to send shivers down your spine. If your current display is aging quickly or you are looking for a more creative way to spark interest in your products, than this latest news has to hit you equally hard because we all know that you need money to make money. Well you may be able to get some relief thanks to Godfrey’s display rental program.
Priced 50-60% less than if purchased all at once, rental displays not only help you get a better feel of what works, but they are also a great alternative to purchasing two displays if you only need more than one for a short period of time. Available in many styles, rental display options include:
A standard portable display with graphics creating a custom look.
A combination of our systems configured for a custom look.
A customized TechForm or Truss beam.
A complete custom PodForum.
In these tough economic times when people are becoming more and more selective with how they spend their money, it’s more important than ever that your investments reap great returns. Godfrey understands that when you are attending a trade show you need to be able to position yourself with a unique display that is sure to attract attention for your target customers. Unfortunately purchasing a display you’ve never seen in action before is more of a risk than some are willing to commit to and that’s why we are happy to help with multiple rental options that are specifically designed to spark interest in your company. For more information on display rentals contact one of our personal project managers today.

Last week in a post titled “The Right Person For The Job” I talked about how something as tantalizing as Fillet Mignon would appear to be plain trash if it were to be served to you on a garbage can lid. Now in that post I was using this example as way to make sure you are employing people who have a certain degree of charm and personality, but the same can be said about how you choose to show off your product as well. You could essentially have one of those products that becomes synonymous with a entire line of products from any number of manufacturers (Coke, TiVo, and Matchbox Cars are examples of this), but because you did not choose the best way to promote your idea nobody ever takes notice. It’s those early decisions about how you will choose to bring your product to the consumer that make all the difference in the world.
Understandably this isn’t an easy process and not something to jump into. You want to start with a very broad idea of what you want and then begin to eliminate choices. Is your event outside? Do you need something like a large tent or would a smaller Mushroom style kiosk do the trick? Are you looking for something that can easily be packed up and taken to the next location or does portability not matter? Maybe you are just looking to spice up your office front. Will there be some type of attendant with a desk stationed there? Is privacy going to be a concern? How about signage? Were you thinking about something that may possibly hang from the ceiling or maybe you’d rather just have a stand that would allow people to pick up literature as they pass by?
All of these questions and we haven’t even considered graphics yet. Are you looking for something with bright colors or is something more professional what you had in mind? Do you have a specific logo that needs to be included or are you looking to come up with a new theme unlike anything you have done before? Are considering renting a booth to start out or are you ready to fully customize a display of your own?
Finding what is right for you and your products can be time consuming process, but one that is fulfilling and often very profitable. Knowing what works best for you and what you want makes all the difference in the world. The Godfrey Group understands this and that’s why we’ve created a Design Library that lets you start narrowing your ideas down and even save them so that you can come back later after you’ve researched what you want a little further. Don’t hesitate. Login in today!!

Even if you don’t watch the stock market as closely as others, if you have any interest at all chances are you caught wind of Thursday’s 1,000 point plunge. While the dramatic drop was nothing to laugh at (especially for those who would like to retire and live off their 401k someday) what makes the situation even more scary is the fact that the country’s top experts really don’t have a clear idea as to why it happened or if it will again. According to one expert in an interview with USA Today this past Sunday “The fact we don’t know (what happened) makes us lose confidence in the system”. This may come as some harsh words to hear for a country that has been struggling to claw its way out of the recent recession. Regardless of what it’s in, investing is always a risky and worrisome thing to do. Still the only way to grow is to take that risk, cross those fingers, and dive into that latest venture. That isn’t to say that you have to jump blindly though. In terms of the tradeshows and conventions, renting a booth may be a smart way to test the murky waters before committing loads of cash.
This is exactly what The Godfrey Group is doing when offering its fantastic and wide spread line of products to its customers on a rental basis. Whether you’re just planning on attending one event or if your schedule has you criss-crossing the country every weekend, forget about simple fold out tables and a few chairs, Godfrey can cut your costs without cutting the quality you receive. Imagine a portable display with amazing graphics, a unique combination of several looks all rolled into one, or one of our best looking PodForum’s at 50-60% less than what you would typically pay.
Perfect for those that are considering venturing into new markets or wanting to test a new product, The Godfrey Group has just what you need to get through these trouble times. If you’ve been thinking about making a new investment and wish you had way to look before you leap, consider one of our many trade show display rental options.
Just another way The Godfrey Group is helping to make your next trade show or convention the most successful one yet!

Your main trade show booth or kiosk should be instantly recognizable by your customers and clients; your company’s colors, emblems, logo, etc. should be clearly visible from across a large area.
Many businesses are having their most frequently used, sturdiest trade show booth custom-made, therefore giving it the most personalized, individual look possible.
However, there will be times when a trade show is so far away it makes packing 
such a display impractical. There might also be a trade show with a universal theme, etc, making it advisable to add something to join in the “fun.” Plus, there are many times an add-on or two will make your usual, standard display stand out even more! That’s where Godfrey Group’s pop-up displays will be a welcome addition!
Remember: you want your customers and clients to recognize your display, and you want potential customers and clients to spot your display and find it intriguing enough to check out!
Whatever your trade show booth, kiosk, or display needs, we guarantee that you will find exactly what you need at Godfrey Group; and if you need something custom-made, we’ll make it EXACTLY as you wish.
