Every display needs one, every vendor could use one, and every lover of free samples desperately seeks one; today we are talking trade show pedestals. Believe it or not, all trade show pedestals are not created equally. Some are tall, some are short, some are wide, some are narrow, some even turn into their own shipping case. Regardless of whether we are talking about outdoor displays, hanging headers, or game displays, Godfrey doesn’t do anything halfway and that includes offering you the best looking pedestals on the market today. Check out these awesome designs!
Customer Built Trade Show Pedestals
The Oval Pedestal- Need a standard pedestal with tons of options? We’ve got it. Sizes range from a top of 18″x36″ and 40″ tall to 30″x60″ top at a height of 40″.
Kidney Shaped Pedestals- A pedestal with tons of style and functionality, the Kidney shaped design is a fan favorite with an optional fabric stripe inlay and some extra storage cabinet below.
Rectangular and Square Shape Pedestals- It’s hip to be square with these pedestals that give a new spin to something old. Available in a wide variety of colors including the ability to mix and match tops and bottoms, this is the perfect addition to any trade show exhibit.
Round Pedestals- Other than the fact that these pedestals are round, something else that makes them uber cool is the ability to stack them on top of one another. The Multi-level round pedestal offers you a bottom level that measures 16″w X 40″h, a second level measuring 30″w X 33″h, and a top level at 48″w X 26″h

The display went up in seconds with no problems. Within minutes you were able to unload everything, find your assigned spot at the convention center, and assemble that custom designed trade show exhibit made especially for you. Complete with a couple pedestals, an information display, a couple video monitors, and of course your logo featured prominently in several locations, it’s hard to argue that you’ve got one of the best looking exhibits at the event. Knowing it’s not all about the look of the display though, you have made sure to cover all the bases. Weeks were spent going over every fine detail of the product line you will be presenting, calls and emails were sent in advance to generate some early buzz about where you will be, you’ve even placed a couple banners out front to let those coming know where to find you.
Suddenly you hit a string of bad luck. You get nudged on the way back from getting coffee and spill it all over your pants. You run out to the truck to find something to clean up with only to realize you have a flat tire. On your way back you notice someone has stolen one of your better priced items and of course nobody saw anything. Needless to say before the day even starts going good your attitude is far less than positive. As the day progresses you begin speaking to a lot of potential customers. The convention center is full, but for some reason you are barely able to squeak out more than five minutes of anyone’s time. In frustration you begin to look around at your exhibit for what the problem could be….only the problem isn’t the display it’s your attitude.
We all have bad days and tribulations we must go through, but the best looking display in the world will only do so much good if the attitude it is presented with stinks. It’s extremely important to set aside all those bad vibes and focus on the customer when those doors open and people start piling in. Another thing to remember is that a positive attitude shouldn’t be confined to the area of your exhibit. People notice more than we tend to give them credit for and it’s not unreasonable to say that potential customers were nearby when that cup of hot coffee got spilled on you, when you screamed because of that flat tire, and when you feverishly attempted to hunt down a would be thief. All that planning you did weeks before the event and that custom designed display will only go so far if you present them to the customer in a sarcastic or unfriendly manner.
The next time you get ready to start your day dealing with potential customers, think about your attitude and make sure to be positive!

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.

The first official day of college football is less than a month away and where I’m from that means tailgate season is upon us. In the south college football doesn’t just last 5-6 months of the year, in Alabama it’s a 365 day discussion that never stops. On any given Saturday from September through the first of January malls are deserted, parks are left abandoned and empty, and the only people on the streets are those trying desperately to get home in time to catch the second half. If you’re a retailer or any type of event planner than the only way you can guarantee that people will show is the promise that they won’t have to miss the big game. I’ve been to both weddings and funerals where somewhere tucked in the corner of a room you could find a dozen men and women alike applauding a completed touchdown pass.
If you’re a trade show vendor and you know that your target market is full of die-hard football fanatics, then one sure fire way to get them to show up in droves is to contact them in advance and promise them a tailgate party with all the fix’ins. In order to throw a successful tailgate party the most important thing you need to focus on is atmosphere. With a few clicks of a button you can be on your way to creating a Grand Fabric structure that resembles a football stadium with your company’s logo emblazoned all around. The next thing you need is food. Think hot-wings, burgers, hot-dogs, and tons of potato chips complete with enough soda to drown an elephant. For special VIP customers throw a juicy steak on your portable grill and serve it all under the appropriately named Mushroom Kiosk that will give you plenty of counter space.
Now all you got to do give the people what they came to see and that’s the game itself. The Truss Me system with its monitor mount option and a dependable WiFi connection will give you the ability to blast the game all across the conference room floor. Throw a literature stand in the mix so everyone has a chance to learn about who sponsored the awesome party, a pedestal for all to leave their contact info, and what you have is tailgate party that gets the people out of their recliners and into your custom built trade show exhibit!!

It’s the perfect day. The sun is out and a cool breeze blows in your face as you jump on up on your board ready to charge the next available wave. The sounds of Jimmy Buffet and Jack Johnson can be heard just off in the distance. You see your chance. That perfect wave just begging to be tamed. You jump up, get in your stance, and a quick click-flash-print from a nearby camera records the triumphant moment. You’ve got a memory to last a lifetime and if you wish you don’t even have to tell anyone that you never actually went to the beach this year. In fact you were at trade show somewhere in the middle of the country and the entire
surfing experience took place as part of your company’s brand new
trade show exhibit.
While there is a lot to be said about getting your point across, burning the name of your company into someone’s brain will take you a long way. Everyone needs to let loose from time to time and have some fun. Why not be the company at the otherwise boring trade show that brings the party to the people? There’s nothing that people like better than laughing it up with their friends and family just as there are some games that never get old. Imagine a line of people all waiting to take a turn on your
Putt-Putt Golf course or a chance to win a few freebies by stepping up to the
football toss. Why not turn the entire trade show into your own personal event? With the help of a few well placed
posters, a
overhead banner, and a couple
flag stands each featuring your company’s name and logo all pointing in your direction, you can easily create a buzz through the crowd that will send them flocking to see what all the fuss is about. While they’re in line surround them with a
literature display featuring everything they need to know about who you are and before they can play ask visitors to fill out a contact sheet located on a
pedestal at the starting point of the game.
Regardless of who you are or what your product is, by connecting your company’s name and image to a prop or game you are creating a memory in a person’s mind all based around the fun they had at your booth. By making a point to get their contact info before they step up to the plate you are
generating tons of leads sure to last you for months and years to come.
