To say that shopping is stressful is like saying that popcorn is made from corn. It’s a no brainer that giving is a gift can be extremely frustrating. Whether it be the perfect Valentine’s Day gift to win over that special someone, a birthday gift for that person that has everything, or the dreaded Christmas Gift that will bring a tear to your girl’s eye, no matter what the situation spending that cash you worked so hard to get is definitely something that shouldn’t be taken lightly. This proves to be even more true when it comes time to buy a new trade show exhibit. That’s why today our gift to you is a list of ways to make your trade show display shopping experience a little less stressful.
Steps To Building A Stress Free Trade Show Exhibit
Have a budget- I listed this before knowing what you want simply because what you want and what you can afford are often completely different two different things. Think about how much you can afford to spend, how much in terms of sales a new display will add to your business, and try to figure out how what you might want fits in to what you can afford.
Have a plan- Once you have an idea of how much you can spend, figure out what you need. An easier way to do this may be to figure out what you don’t need. If you are a vendor that strictly visits indoor events, you clearly don’t need to be looking at outdoor tents and inflatables. Browse our trade show design gallery and see how your idea of what a trade show display should be compares to what is available.
Know how to execute the plan- After you have narrowed down what you are looking for, it’s time to figure out the best way to get the most out of your new display. What configuration works best? What sales approaches work well with the new display? How will you direct traffic in and around your new exhibit? Make sure you know what the layout of your design will look like long before you arrive at that convention center to setup shop for the weekend.

Though not officially starting for another week, frigid temps are taking over the headlines and lives of just about everyone in the country.

Just check a map of your local area and no doubt you will find an outdoor festival designed to melt away those winter blues. With vendors offering hot chocolate, apple cider, chicken stew, and Christmas carolers a plenty this definitely is the season to be jolly.

There are few things in this life that you can depend on. The smell of mom’s pot roast as you walk in from church on Sunday morning. The quick jab from your little brother you haven’t seen in a while. A snowman being built within hours of that first snow fall. When talking business these things we rely on become even rarer; a yearly raise, paid holidays a few times year, a free turkey at Thanksgiving. It’s nice to know that no matter what happens there will always be a cup of coffee waiting for you at the office in the morning.
Godfrey understands the need for those creature comforts we depend on so much, especially during those times when you are on the road attending a trade show. This why we go out of our way to make every display we sell as simple, easy, and of course dependable as possible so that no matter what happens on your way there, you will always know that the last thing you need to worry about is how your exhibit will look.
Whether we are talking about our out of this world Space Station pop-ups which literally come to life in seconds, table top displays that have the ability to turn a simple folding table into an award deserving exhibit, or outdoor tents and kiosks which are sure to turn the heads of all those scores of visitors that will be walking past; Godfrey has exactly what you are looking for.
By the time you deal with all the packing, unpacking, traveling, locating and checking into the hotel, the last thing you want to deal with is a complex display that requires a PHD to assemble. With Godfrey you can set your worries aside and know that just as the sky is blue you will have the best custom designed display up and ready to go in seconds.

If you’re a foodie like me (not to mention a huge pop culture fan) than you are no doubt following along with two of the best cooking shows to hit the airwaves in decades. I’m talking about The Next Food Network Star and Top Chef both taking place on separate networks each and every week. Each show features a group of chefs competing in a variety of cooking contests designed to weed out the best and send home the rest. If you look beyond the competition and focus on the basics of the cooking though, you may be surprised to find lessons that relate directly to trade show success. Below is a recipe for a successful trade show and it starts with knowing what you want your end result to be. Like cooking you need to have a loose idea as to what you are making. What do you want your display to accomplish? Do you have a specific design in mind?
1 Dose of Preparation- What type of display works best for your product? Would a literature display be best or do your needs point more towards a computer kiosk? Indoor or outdoor? Pop up or environmentally friendly? What design best matches the types of events you attend? Who are you marketing to and what gets their attention the most?
1 Dash of Creativity- The use of color is a great way to get a persons attention. Try to be unique while at the same time don’t be too extreme as to alienate yourself from other vendors.
1 lb of Follow Through- Make sure you keep up the relationships you make while at an event. The moment you return from a trade show, shoot out an email or call your new contact just to thank them for taking the time to speak to you.
1 Ounce of Prevention- Know what it is about your product that discourages people and come to an event prepared to offer solutions to their concerns. If a customer is concerned about the cost tell them you understand, that others you spoken to have also felt the same way, and that you were able to help them through the use of a payment plan.
Mix With Special Ingredient- Every great chef knows that to truly be successful you must take the ordinary and turn it into the extraordinary. A kiosk is not a kiosk when it features a custom logo along with your companies name emblazoned in the center. By taking the idea of a trade show display and molding it to fit your idea of what the customer is looking for, you are essentially giving them something they are familiar with yet have never seen before.
Like the perfect recipe, the key to a successful trade show exhibit is repetition. Don’t be afraid to try new things and make changes until you achieve a display that fits your needs and creates buzz amongst customers.

It’s amazing how fast the days fly by. It seems like we just wrapped up the Christmas holidays and yet here we are again exactly one month away from the first official day of summer. All across the country spring is in full bloom and the temps are climbing. With the warm weather comes an endless string of outdoor concerts, fairs, and trade shows. Every weekend brings with it new opportunities to get outside and soak up some local flavor while hanging out at a nearby festival. As much as I like the main attractions at these events, my favorite parts are all the interesting booths and displays to be seen. Whether it be the wide variety of foods ranging from fried Oreos to homemade lemonade or the vendors with all of their freebies or the tents showing off the trendiest cars straight from the local dealership; it’s these types of attractions that give the event the color and flavor that brings a smile to every one’s face.
Outdoor vendors share more than one thing in common with their indoor counterparts but the most important of them all is their need to be noticed by the public. In fact outdoor displays and exhibits may need to be even more spectacular simply because not only are they competing with one another, but they’ve also got to find a way to steal the spotlight away from the main attractions even if it is for only a few brief moments. Godfrey understands the unique challenges outdoor events bring and that’s why they offer more than just ordinary pop-up tents and instead go to great lengths to offer their customers some of the most amazing outdoor displays on the market. From the great look of the mushroom and dome kiosks to spacious tent clusters with optional market umbrella, Godfrey has everything you want in an outdoor display with full customization and amazing graphics to match. Oh and if inflatables are what you have in mind than I’ve got two words for you event pavilions! They’re big, they’re high profile, they’re just the thing you need to make company the center of attention.
This summer don’t let the good times pass you by. Set yourself apart from those other vendors by turning your next outdoor trade show or festival into one for the record books! Call one of our personal project managers today ask them how you can make this a season to remember!!
