Exhibition stands – key considerations
The first step in exhibition stand success is to set your goals. Before you get into the nitty gritty of design and build, you first need to ascertain your reasons for exhibiting in the first place as this will dictate your strategy on the day. Do you want to boost sales, for example, or launch a new product?
Next, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with the exhibition site and envision how your stand will fit in with its surroundings. Once you have this picture in your mind, you can move on to the design aspects of your exhibition stand.
Exhibition stands come in all shapes and sizes, so there is plenty to consider when it comes to design. As well as considering the impact certain shapes and colors can have on your audience – red is often seen as authoritative, and blue evocative and aspirational, for example – you’ll also need to keep in mind practical aspects such as how you plan to store your exhibition stands and how easy they are to set up.
Finally, as your stand will likely be side-by-side with hundreds of other exhibition stands, you’ll need a strategy to attract and keep visitors at yours. Again there is much to consider. Exhibition stands must be much more than just visually compelling – they should wow every sense of your audience and include interactive elements to catch the eye and engage visitors. You need to both grab and hold the audience’s attention.
The art of exhibition stands
It’s clear to see that there’s plenty at play when it comes to creating the perfect exhibition stand. While aesthetics are, of course, an essential consideration, they are only part of the puzzle. Exhibition stands must also have purpose, along with a practical link to your product, service, or brand. Keeping all of these factors in mind is vital to ensuring your exhibition is a success and you meet all of your marketing objectives for the day.
Attracting the attention of your visitors is key to this success, but holding it is what really counts. Ultimately, you want your exhibition stand to be a refuge for your potential customers. Somewhere that they want to be among the throngs of other exhibition stands vying for their attention. Get this right, and you’ll get results.
