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.

Have you ever been at a trade show and wished for the one thing that only an insane person would expect to have with hundreds of people walking past at any given time. Today we are talking about privacy which is something that you are ensured never to get during a trade show. Given you are there to sell sell sell and the whole purpose of a trade show is to get your name out by talking to as many people as possible, but still there are always those times when you can’t help but think that if you could just have a few moments of privacy with an individual it would surely lead to a sale. After all a little one on one time goes a long way to establishing that all important relationship that is essentially the foundation of any sale not to mention any reoccurring sale.
For all of those ghosts, goblins, and gargoyles this is the weekend they’ve all been waiting for. Halloween officially kicks off the holiday season and that means that there are less than 60 days left to Christmas. As this Halloween creeps upon us the only thing scarier than the recent down turn in the economy are the predictions by many that this holiday season may be witness to a drastic drop in consumer spending. While mom and dad prepare to cut back on their Christmas spending, retailers all across the country are looking for a way to increase sales while decreasing expenses. Thankfully this year Godfrey has a couple of tricks that just might allow your company to treat their customers to a few lower prices.
