Bright ideas in exhibition stall design

As we come close to the end of 2018, it’s time to gear up for a busy season of trade shows. In India, winter is a popular time of year and there are a number of expos and trade shows in the offing.

It’s time to plan how to make the most of your exhibition budget. You’ve probably already decided and booked your space at the exhibitions of your choice, so now it’s time to partner with a creative and reliable exhibition stall design & construction agency that can deliver best designs and ROI. 

Here are some of the current trends in exhibition design that you should be aware of. 

Less wood, more aluminium

Earlier, modular stands were created out of wood, but recent developments in the industry have changed that. The latest trend is lightweight aluminium panels which can be joined together easily and can be assembled in half (or even less) of the time it takes to build a wooden stand. What’s more, these aluminium frames can feature easy-change fabric graphics or graphics on a rigid substrate such as foam board which means you can have custom branding at a fraction of the cost compared to a wooden stand.

Things are getting curvy

The days of square layouts and boxy construction are gone. From shell schemes to the gantry rigs, stand designers are experimenting with curves that will help create a point of difference at the trade show. Curved stands mean your branding can be seen from every angle, and can be used creatively for different objectives. For example, for displaying company history or a timeline of innovation, curved surfaces offer a creative flow. In larger exhibition stands, curves are being used to create little booths for private interaction with select visitors.

Best of all, curved stands are no longer as expensive as they used to be, so more and more exhibitors can use them in their creative exhibition stand design.

Focus on lights

Lighting has always been an important element of exhibition stand design and now, with the advancements in lighting technology, creative exhibition stall designers have a large and exciting range of options to work with. Designers will focus on creating the right lighting accent for the custom exhibition stands, so that it compliments and enhances the branding and colour palette chosen for the stand.

LED light walls, backlit displays, LED-illuminated portable displays and backlit accessories such as light box counters and center towers can be used to fantastic effect for award winning exhibition stand design. Not only does backlighting take display graphics to the next level, it creates brand visibility from afar, attracting attention and footfalls for your stand.

Complimentary offerings

These days, almost everyone carries multiple devices which need charging. That’s why in more and more public places, we see more and more charging stations. Offering such a service is a good way to attract visitors to your exhibition stand, as is providing refreshments. Visitors spend hours at trade shows, and so a cool drink or small snack is always welcome. You can use digital technology to publicise your offering – and drive traffic to your stall. Then, while visitors wait for their device to charge or sip on your complimentary drink, your sales staff will have a good chance to initiate conversation and engage in some meaningful sales talk. 

Interactive technology

Exhibitors are increasingly using interactive technology such as Virtual Reality to engage the audience in a trade show setting.  It helps to attract visitors, keep them occupied if the staff is busy, and conduct some experiential marketing. By including a virtual reality headset or game, you can demonstrate your company’s offerings in a memorable way, and add an element of fun to the experience. 

For a successful trade show booth experience, it pays to collaborate with an exhibition stand design company that has the experience, skills and creativity to deliver maximum impact. SEED (Smart Exhibition & Environment Display) can assist with complete Exhibition Design solutions from concept to commissioning.

Space Management in effective Exhibition Stall Design

Exhibitions and trade shows are now an important part of the corporate marketing mix. They are an opportunity to interface with customers and the industry. With expert designers, innovative space planning and creative branding, exhibitors can maximize on the opportunity and garner the returns they desire.

Smart utilization of space is crucial to effective exhibition stall designing. Space planning and usage will make your booth stand out and attract footfalls. In the given space, the designer has to use his/her designing innovativeness and create a strategic floor plan that provides for product placement, branding, live activities, customer interactions, storage and more.

If the exhibition stall is small, the number of exhibits needs to be limited, leaving enough space for visitors to move around. Visibility is also an important consideration, and the exhibition booth displays and signage must be clear and welcoming.

For companies, every expo they participate in is a big investment – of money, time, manpower, inventory and energy. Needless to state, exhibitors expect returns on their investment. Only an experienced agency with expert command over the entire architecture, artistic skills and fabrication knowhow can deliver effective and impactful designs that optimize usage of space and maximize return on investment.

CHECKLIST FOR EFFECTIVE EXHIBITION STAND DESIGN

For players in the B2B segment, exhibitions offer a unique platform to present their brand and showcase their strengths and offerings. Trade shows are generally targeted at an industry and people involved or interested in that industry. So participating in a trade show can be a great way to reach a target market and create brand awareness – that too, face-to-face. Here, product and market testing can be carried out to gain industry or general opinion about your offering – even as you find out what your competition and other industry players are doing.

Exhibitions also attract a large and sometimes diverse range of audiences (usually the general public). This provides you with a platform to promote your product or service to a broader group that may have little or no knowledge of your products and services.

However, trade shows can be costly. Besides stall charges, there is the cost of travel, display and product literature. They can also be hectic and stressful, with so many big and little things to take care of. So it makes sense to be fully prepared and follow some basic thumb rules to make the most of the opportunity and optimize ROI.

2. -          Develop a creative stand with a strong key message
3. -          Ensure proper presentation of your brand
4. -          Train staff to man the stall
5. -          Inform customers & prospects about your participation

DURING THE SHOW

1. -          Ensure your staff is greeting visitors warmly and providing required information
2. -          Offer refreshments and/or giveaways to attract visitors
3. -          Distribute relevant sales collaterals
4. -           Scan attendees' badges or collect business cards to create a record of people you meet

AFTER THE SHOW

1. -          Follow-up with leads captured during the trade show
2. -          Help your prospects move to the next level

Enhance the effectiveness of your Trade Show Stand with the ‘personal’ touch

Trade shows remain one of the most popular and effective marketing tools available to B2B enterprises.  In fact, research has shown that B2B exhibitions account for more than 40% of all B2B budgets.

Eye-catching trade show booth displays

According to a report by The Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR) 'Changing Environment of Exhibitions', the exhibition channel continues to prove it is an important channel for driving business. It claims that a staggering 99% of marketers believe that trade shows offer unique value, which cannot be achieved through other mediums.

So what makes trade show marketing so valuable? Why do B2B industries favour exhibitions for marketing?

The major advantage is the opportunity to meet new prospects up-close-and-personal. Trade shows offer a unique platform for relevant lead generation by casting a wider net and delivering in-person contact. Businesses get to meet prospects face-to-face and to personally demonstrate and communicate the company’s offerings. Exhibitions allow companies to engage in meaningful two-way dialogue, where both the prospect and the company can exchange contact information, discuss requirements, and compare solutions – one-on-one. Businesses can also properly gauge the value of the leads, and by qualifying strong leads, shorten the sales cycle.

There is something intensely trust building in shaking someone’s hand and looking them in the eye. Knowing that there are actual humans behind all the technology & stats is innately reassuring. This type of connection cannot be recreated digitally, or with even the most compelling advertising. Because of the personal nature of face-to-face interaction at expo booths, connections established here often yield fruitful results.

There are some tips to enhance the ‘personal’ touch at your exhibition stall. While creating a bespoke exhibition stand design goes a long way, the ‘human interaction’ can be augmented by: 

1. Sending out personalized invites on social media or by email.
2. Appointing well-trained staff to interact with visitors – people who are pleasant mannered, cordial and informative, able to engage with prospects with sound knowledge of your products and brand.
3. SWAG or giveaways that are attractive and of value to visitors.
4. Informal lounge areas where prospects can sit and chat in comfort. A cup of coffee with the discussion would certainly help – considering how large most trade shows are; visitors are usually tired and thirsty!.
5. Posting a thank you note to visitors – telling them how much you enjoyed meeting them, and inviting them to your office or offering the next Call-To-Action for taking the lead forward.

HOW TO BE THE TALK OF THE TRADE SHOW

Although a creative and compelling exhibition stall design is vital for a successful trade show stand, there are many other factors that can be contributing factors for your exhibition stall’s success and your ROI. 

Creative Exhibition Stall Design

Some important tips include:

- Avoid over enthusiasm to display ALL your products. It can make the stall too crowded and bringing focus on flag ship products can be difficult.

- Ensure your stall design reflects and enhances your brand value. Eye-catching gimmicks, innovative displays, creative panels & modern technology are all warranted to attract crowds but not at the cost of compromising your brand value. Your design agency should understand and uphold your brand values in the bespoke design.

- Plan it well in advance and avoid last minute changes as it hampers your stall construction and adversely affects the finish.

- Content creation is the most important part of your stall display and the hook to attract your customers. Sometimes exhibition stall design agencies get carried away with design of the stall and forget that content creation is the most compelling and meaningful part of the stall design.

- Finding an agency that is prompt in service and very vigilant is important. A successful trade show booth needs detailed planning, painstaking coordination & supervision, and meticulous attention to detail – to avoid snags and ensure flawless execution of the stand design.

Exhibitions Reach the Right People at the Right Time
