That cold snap that came through the last couple of nights really did a number on your pipes. You got up to take a shower this morning an you immediately noticed the change in water pressure. As that sick feeling began to take over, you slowly made the march towards the basement already aware of what you would find waiting for you at the bottom of those dark stairs….moments later phone in hand you do what must be done and that’s call a plumber for help with the 5 inches of water that is quickly rising.
All that running a around trying to get the plumbing fixed left you exposed to the elements which in turn made you a prime target for the flu. Within days you’re running a fever of a 105, can’t hold anything down, and can’t afford to use any more sick days. As much as you hate it, the only choice is to call the family doctor and get back on the path to good health.
Meanwhile the water that was filling the basement went from 5 inches to 10 by the time the plumber finally made it. The result left a crack in your foundation which won’t easily be fixed. A call to your home insurance agent gets a time setup to meet and a promise that it’s not as bad as you think. As he hangs up the phone the agent promises you that things will be back to normal in no time and the claim should go smoothly.
Just like in the scenarios above, at some point a problem gets so out of hand that we all must seek help from the professionals. For small business owners trying desperately to see the light at the end of that long economic tunnel, The Godfrey Group is here to help when you need us the most. From our expert design team who go out to their way to ensure your satisfaction to our display rental program which makes it easier than ever to try new ideas to our extensive library of designs with tons of concepts to choose from, we understand how tough the market is these days and we’re here to help.

Here we are finally making it to Friday, all set to make every second of the coming weekend count and yet once again most of the country is faced with literally feet of snow ruining everything in its path. The past two months have been nothing but one winter storm after the other, a trend that doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of slowing down despite what that pesky Puxatony Phil says. According to a recent weather report from CNN just this week “Parts of Oklahoma had received up to 12 inches of snow, according to the state Department of Emergency Management. Wind chills were 10 to 30 degrees below zero in some areas, and authorities were urging people to stay off the roads. Some 80 people in Oklahoma had been injured as a result of the storm, the state Department of Health said Wednesday. That total included 63 falls, one carbon monoxide poisoning, 14 injuries in traffic accidents and two “cut/pierce injuries.”
Like it or not more than ever, this year winter is an unmovable force that must be dealt with. A force that demands to be reckoned with. That cannot be overlooked or dismissed with the wave of a hand. If you think about it this is exactly what you want from a trade show display; something that creates buzz around a conference center, makes people stand up and take notice of who you are, that hooks into them and refuses to let go until they check out exactly what you have to offer. A display that WOW’s the crowd and opens their wallets.
We’ve all been to those events where after one walk around the room, you’re left feeling like you’ve seen everything a thousand times before and really wouldn’t have missed anything had you decided to stay home. Godfrey isn’t in the business of creating these types of boring displays. Give us the chance and what you will soon discover is that we have the tools to create for you a custom built trade show exhibit that is guaranteed to stop consumers in their tracks and stand in line to find out what amazing things are being offered.
If you are in the market for a custom built trade show display take a cue from Old Man Winter and let Godfrey design for you a display that will leave the crowd breathless!

Ask any one of the thousands of victims of workplace crime and you are sure to learn that workplace violence is real and happens every day. According to the National Center for Victims of Crime:
*In 2007, 12.7 percent of violent crimes and 14.7 percent of property crimes were committed against victims who were at work or on duty at the time, amounting to 621,450 violent crimes and more than 2.5 million property victimizations.[1][1]
*Of the 621,450 violent crimes committed in the workplace in 2007, 492,790 were simple assaults, 97,830 were aggravated assaults, 23,270 were robberies, and 7,550 were rapes or sexual assaults.[2][2]
*Nearly 80 percent of workplace homicides are committed by criminals otherwise unconnected to the workplace.
For business owners large and small all across the country keeping their employees safe is quickly becoming a major concern and expense. While such things as security officers and high tech alarms certainly work, for those looking for a little extra security Godfrey just might be able to help. It might sound simple but a kiosk with touch screen monitor, printer, and phone line could help you keep your entire facility safe for little expense. A custom designed professional kiosk from Godfrey will greet your visitors as they walk in the door and offer them direction as to how to seek employment, contact individuals inside the facility, and make an appointment if unexpected. What it will ultimately do best though is act as an additional form of security by helping screen individuals and keep them out of the areas where they may possibly harm your employees.
In today’s world you can’t be too careful when it comes to personal safety at home or at work. That’s why it so important to not take safety for granted and take every possible step necessary to ensure the well being of your employees. A custom designed kiosk from Godfrey may just be the thing that stops your office from becoming another statistic.

It may seem kinda silly to be talking about 2011 what with Thanksgiving being tomorrow and all, but the fact is the time to get ready for next year’s trade show is today. A great looking trade show display doesn’t happen overnight, but instead takes time in order to ensure that you are getting exactly what you need to set yourself apart from your competitor. At Godfrey from the very moment you contact a personal project manager a constant dialog is established which allows you to voice your opinion on color, design, style, accessories, and keeps you up to date every step of the way as the display or exhibit is created. The most important decision though is as old as time itself, “What do people want?” In hopes of shedding some light on this continuous dilemma, today we are going to take out the old crystal ball and tell you what we think will be the hottest trade show trends for 2011
*Value over price- It used to be that price was king, but these days with the economy picking up steam consumers are just as interested in the value they will receive by purchasing a product as they are by what they will have to pay for it. Grand fabric exhibits and custom built pop-ups will definitely help you get your point across, but the key for today’s consumer is letting them touch, feel, and taste your product first hand in order to convince them that you are offering a quality product.
*Social Media and the pressures of friendship- Forget phone calls and mail-outs, the trick to getting your target market’s attention is reaching them where they live and that’s on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. These are the places where we find out what our best friends and favorite celebrities are tripping over themselves to get to; where our favorite restaurants are offering special promotions for following along on their sites. At your next event make sure to add a couple of spaces to that ledger you have set up at your information booth to include ways to reach them via social networking sites and email
*Meeting expectations- With so many products flooding the market, in order to separate yourself from the competition one of the most important things that have to be done is you have to meet the expectations of your customers. Not only does every bell and whistle need to be laid out and easy to use, but they must be of high quality. This is where an audio/video display proves invaluable in that you have the ability to showcase every aspect of your product in a eye capturing format.

It appears that
Election Day 2010 is fully upon us as millions of voters will go to the polls tomorrow and choose the leaders that will guide this country for into the coming years. With over 100 House seats and 37 governors up for election, 2010 has been witness to one of the most costly and hard fought political seasons in decades. According to a CNN/Opinion Research survey “
A new national poll released Monday showed the number of Americans who say things are going badly in the country, at 75 percent, is higher than it has been on the eve of any mid-term election since the question was first asked in the mid-1970s.” Needless to say some very tough choices will made on Tuesday, thankfully when it comes to deciding the best company to help you promote your company Godfrey is the clear winner.
Outdoor Banner Stands
Regardless of whether we are talking about large format A-frame stands or flying banners that are guaranteed to catch everyone’s attention, Godfrey has exactly what you need to promote your business during the coming winter months. Featuring collapsible aluminum supports, dual sided graphics, and easy installation we have some of the best quality outdoor banners on the market today. Plus Godfrey now offers window banners for mall and retail outlets!
Pedestals, Kiosks, & Workstations
With plenty to choose from including sample & demo pedestals, computer kiosks, event tents, and information displays, there’s nothing Godfrey can’t do when it comes to designing the display perfect for your company. In addition to this, for those that are looking to add to an existing display, we also offer several display add-ons that are sure to make any exhibit look brand new again.
Video & Audio Displays
Some of the most high tech and innovative audio video displays available can be brought to life at your next trade show with a little help from Godfrey. We have the ability to integrate your video message into a wide variety of displays. Not to mention we offer freestanding video and audio presentation packages proven to create a stir at any event. When it comes to our video presentations no display is too small and no screen is too big!
Tomorrow when you pull back the curtain and begin to pick your choice on who the next set of elected officials will be, remember that not every choice has to be so difficult and think about how easy promoting your company can be with a little bit of help from Godfrey!

We started this week out talking about how the time to get ready for next spring and all of those highly anticipated outdoor events is now. Designing a quality outdoor display with tons of style that is custom made to your specifications takes time. While it may seem as simple as picking up the phone and placing an order, in actuality the design process at Godfrey is such that the customer is involved in every step of the process from start to finish. That’s why if you’re a company that makes the bulk of its sales traveling from one outdoor event to the next, the winter months are the perfect time of the year to get all the prep work out of the way so you can hit the road when the warm weather returns.
So far this week we’ve discussed Godfrey’s line of outdoor signs and banners, in addition to several styles of kiosks and tents all designed to make your display the center of attention at any event. Today we want to wrap things up by talking about our Instant Promo/Sampling Stations which may seem small but in fact make a huge impact.
Perfect for high traffic areas that offer little space, instant promo stands give you maximum exposure at a minimum cost.
Key features include:
*Full color graphic wraps perfect for branding
*Optional Velcro receptive panels that can be changed instantly
*Tons of storage
*Counter Space perfect for offering samples or literature
*A customized canopy top
*Canvas tote bag for easy transport
Plus the instant promo station is also available in the uniquely shaped extra wide version with optional rounded header!
For vendors looking for something even smaller and easier on the budget, Godfrey now offers the Simple Sampler Economy Pedestal. Essentially a knock down plastic pedestal, the economy pedestal is made of aluminum header poles attached to a classic white fold up counter topped off with a custom header board. In addition to this a full color graphic wrap for the base is also offered to help add to the custom look of the station.
If you are the market of the perfect outdoor display, the time to order is today!

Every summer all across the country at fairs and outdoor trade shows, vendors put their best foot forward as they attempt to sell everything from brand new cars to out of this world corndogs. With cold weather just around the corner many of these events will be moving indoors, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to forget about those tents and booths. In fact right now just may be the most important time of the year for outdoor vendors who are looking to change things up and make a huge splash come spring time.
3 Types of Outdoor Displays
Mushroom Kiosk- Complete with a canopy top and tons of counter space, the Mushroom Kiosk is both functional and professional in appearance. A fabric top and counter wrap only add this kiosks unique design.
Dome Kiosk- Similar to the Mushroom, the Dome Kiosk excels in blending the bottom of the structure with the top in a way that is sure to turn heads. Easily transported and folded down into two cases, the Dome Kiosk is available in 6.5′ and 9′ models.
Event Tents- From the standard 10′x10′ canopy style to the amazing Tent Cluster which is actually four canopy tents combined all under a large market umbrella, Godfrey has turned the idea of an event tent and turned it into a unique work of art. Full color printed pole wraps only add to the customized look of these outdoor displays.
Godfrey also offers a wide variety of inflatable displays and props including the humongous AirFlatable Event Pavilion. With a 40′ diameter it’s any wonder this is one of the largest inflatable pavilions on the market today. Featuring 10 arched doorways, fully digital print skin, a variety of different door ways to choose from, and the same quality custom graphics you’ve come to expect from Godfrey; the Airflatiable is exactly what you want on at your next outdoor event.
Before the weather gets warm again and you find yourself struggling to attraction attention to your outdoor booth, contact Godfrey today and be ready to make a splash at your next outdoor event.

We all know that trade show vendors will go to extraordinary lengths to attract attention to their booths. Far beyond custom displays and game props many vendors feel that the best way to attract attention is by putting a pretty face in front of their booths. While an attractive person will definitely get you attention, it may not be the kind you want. In fact scantily clad models bring about three very distinct problems that are hard to get around if you are vendor looking to utilize this type of marketing:
•1. They draw the wrong crowd. The main problem with using a model as the main way to sell your product is that it gets everyone’s attention. Every company has a target market in mind for their product. A segment of the population that they feel is the perfect fit for their product. By placing a model in front of your display, instead of zeroing in on that target market you may find yourself wasting huge amounts of time on people who are just there to see a pretty face and don’t have any interest in what you have to offer.
•2. They ruin your clean image. First impressions mean everything and they are often virtually impossible to reverse because you almost never get a second shot at talking to the customer. If a visitor walks by your booth and sees a model that could be considered inappropriately dressed, that customer could immediately classify you as a company that is less than family friendly. When designing a display for a trade show you want to be as professional as possible at all times. You want custom fabrics, clean lines, and quality video presentations. By putting a less than wholesome face in front of the exhibit you are alienating a large portion of the population.
•3. They distort your message. Once you consider all of the expenses that are involved in getting to, setting up, and promoting yourself at a trade show, the last thing you can afford to do is have people walk away from your booth not knowing what you are all about. Again using a model may get bring the crowd your way, but moments later if asked visitors to your booth might be able to remember what the model looked like, but not what she was there to sell. Models get in the way of what you are there to do and that is burn your company’s name in the minds of hundreds of consumers.
Instead of using a model to promote a product, the best move is to invest in a custom built multicolored trade show display that only Godfrey can provide. With a wide variety of kiosks, hanging headers, and pop-up displays to choose from; Godfrey is the answer to all your trade show woes.
