The Key Elements to a Standout Trade Show Booth

Choose a banner that will complement the main setup. 

Is your booth at the far corner with a wall as your backdrop? You can hang vinyl or fabric banners that announce your company name and logo. Those with limited space can maximize a table banner. 

Mark your territory with a large background. 

Trade show booths with virtually no wall or backdrop can create their own with the straight or curved pop-up display. These can be ordered either as a graphic display only or with a frame for a fast setup. 

Step and repeat banners are a great way to engage guests and visitors. These entice them to take a photo that they’ll post on their social media feeds. You get a free advertisement with your logo repeating in the image’s background.  

If you have limited space or need a front-facing display, X-banner stands and retractable banners are easy to display. You can also use these to promote specific services or aspects of your business.  

Showcase your business with promotional essentials such as booklets, rack cards, and brochures.  

Keep potential customers engaged with brochures or booklets they can use in the future for reference. You can also display or give away rack cards for a more succinct summary of your products or services. 

Don’t forget to introduce yourself with a business card and add a freebie through a postcard. Don’t forget to attach your business card when you give away the lengthier marketing tools. This gives a name and face to your business, maintaining the connection and impression made during the trade show. You could also hand out postcards with special discounts or promo codes they could use.  

Your Guide to Creating Unforgettable Trade Show Booth Designs

Display short and straightforward messages. Keep the messages on your largest banners and signs short and sweet. Reinforce your brand with a logo and other visual elements that customers can associate with your business. Remember trade show attendees are constantly on the move and need to see your point in one glance. 

Create an interactive display. Give customers a reason to visit your booth. Set up an interactive game throughout certain times of the day or mount a demo that guests can participate in.  

Keep every detail consistent, across all signs, banners, and other promotional tools. Everything from your logo, the colors, and fonts used, to the common shapes and other visual elements must be consistent across all marketing materials. Both your large and medium displays will be viewed at once in the booth. The smaller promotional tools will continue to boost your brand recall efforts with the colors, shapes, and elements used.  

Make one point of your trade show booth a focal point. Draw customers into your booth with one main focal point on your background or back wall. This will create the illusion of more space in a smaller or medium sizes area. You also maximize the time customers spend in your booth and ensure they get the main message of your promotions.
