Elements of a Trade Show Display

Just like any good advertising, an effective trade show display can make or break your event sales or conversions. The right display size, configuration (inline, peninsula or island exhibit), booth type (pop up display, modular panel system, or custom exhibit), graphics, furniture, and accessories, can have a dramatic impact on the number of people who visit your booth and express interest in your services.

With the wide variety of choice and options for exhibition displays, you can easily accommodate nearly every trade show budget and event sales requirement.

For example, along with your booth, you might need a display counter or table -- and a place to put all of your display materials.

Table top displays, pop displays and banner stands can be used within your exhibit to convey more detailed information about your product or service.

If you are distributing a variety of brochures or other collateral, you may find a literature rack beneficial your exhibiting efforts. A literature rack can make your materials more presentable and easier for you to organize and keep track of them. A better organized display area will appear more professional and create more appeal for potential prospects.

Banner stands are a key marketing element for exhibits. Banner stands can be used as large ads placed around your trade show display that draw attention to your exhibit. An impressive banner stand can greatly increase the amount of traffic visiting your booth by providing initial information that will interest attendees and cause them to seek more information.

The lighting of your exhibit can also be a significant factor in your ability to attract visitors to your display area. The level and positioning of lights can bring focus to your entire booth.

Interlocking display flooring can make your exhibit seem more professional, more comfortable, and more inviting. Trade show display flooring comes in many forms, from hardwood flooring to soft carpet flooring.


Graphics are also key to effective exhibiting.. A powerful graphics design can spark interest in passers by, cause them to take your literature, or inspire them to ask more questions and possible convert into a sale or contact.

The right setup, trade show booths, pop up displays, graphics, and literature or literature racks, can have a dramatic effect on the number of people who take your literature, sign up for your services, or just walk by hardly noticing you.
