Tips On Exhibition Booth Design

By Randy Murphy

Trade exhibitions are very useful for marketing your products and services as they allow participating firms to create the much desired visibility and build their customer base. The designing and management aspects of booths in the exhibitions must be meticulously planned as they have a huge role to play in drawing consumers to your booth.

The relative locations of exhibition booths must be carefully studied as a comprehensive knowledge of the set up of the trade exhibition can help you in coming up with the perfect exhibition design. In addition, your chosen booth must be strong and spacious enough to accommodate a good crowd.

Exhibition booths are important for creating a good visual impact on the consumers, which can be successfully done by exhibiting attractive banners about the company as well as the company's goods. Trade show experts believe that a particular exhibition booth does not have more than three seconds to draw the attention of a visitor and you should try to make the most of this limited time.

This is why the booth should have catchy messages that are impactful and readable from a distance and a colour scheme with maximum two to three striking colours to make it stand out from competing booths. Open booths as opposed to closed ones always work better, and you should also ensure that the lighting arrangements are adequate.

Interactive multimedia tools are an important part of exhibition designs, as they assist in engaging the visitors, giving you some extra time to attract them. You can use audio, visual display or even interactive touch screen monitors to achieve this. Another way of drawing the customers towards the booth is to prominently highlight some freebies, which the visitors can take with them.

Lastly, when working on exhibition designs, you should make sure that you are using lightweight and modular displays that fit into your budget and are easy to manage. This will reduce both material and shipping costs, and will enhance your return on investment.
