Stand Out with the Right Trade Show Displays

May 29, 2009 By 21 Comments

For those of you participating in a Trade Show for the first time you will want to look into banner stands, canvas printing, floor stands, lighting, table tops and of course flyers and business cards. Trade show displays can make or break your presentation. I have also used trade show displays for backdrops for my product. Of course table top displays work well to use for your pictures or display needs.

If you are planning on doing several trade shows you might like to use mobile graphics, which will allow you to carry them around in cylinders or travel bags. I know that a few years ago, the World Market Center in Las Vegas had many vendors in tents outside. That’s right, outside in the 110 degree heat. Amazingly we made it through. It was my first show in Vegas and I was glad that we had a table top display that allowed us to fold and pack away easily. If you happen to be outdoors you can also add graphics to your car or company truck.

I find that it helps to check out what your competition is doing. Look at the colors, style and sizes. Get an idea on what would work best for you and do not forget those business cards. Business cards are a lot more creative now; add your Social Network sites and display them on your table.

Participating in a trade show is exhausting, fun and a great opportunity for your business. What tips can you share with others participating in their first trade show? Here is one, always smile for that camera. There are usually Media Agencies covering for the local news and a crew representing the venue for future promotions.

Card Printing for Business and Homeschool

May 23, 2009 By 9 Comments

Recently I attended a trade show where you are required to present your business card, company ID and verification of Membership. This is more than the usual form of ID requested at other Trade Shows. Having card printers do come in handy for both your business and surprisingly homeschool ID card printing needs. Aside from the obvious reasons you may need to have a company ID for yourself; think about the potential growth of your company. If you plan to hire Sales People, Drivers, or send company representatives to trade shows on your behalf ID card printers definitely come in handy. Keep in mind attending Blog World Expo. For the Blog Show you would also want to have nifty business cards.

What surprised me this month is that I had to provide school ID for my kids to participate in certain events taking place this summer. Also, in order to obtain a Teachers’ discount at stores like Lakeshore Learning a school ID is required. I am sure now that I am actively attending trade shows and do plan to hire additional Team Members the card printer will be of great use. If I get that Purchase Order approved with a certain school, I know I will need an ID for my driver(s).

Do you have a need for company ID’s? Have you been required to produce a company ID at an unsual function?
