19 Aug How to Design an Engaging Trade Show Booth
An engaging trade show booth design can turn the curious into customers—the hard part is catching the eye of people passing by. Not only does your exhibit need to stand out enough to attract visitors, it also has to encourage them to stay and learn more about your business.
Mousegraphics is experienced in producing a wide range of compelling trade show displays. We’ll help you deliver an engaging exhibit by creating and printing high quality displays that are easy to set up. Read on to discover more about how to design a successful trade show booth.
Address Customer Needs
In order to turn visitors into customers, your booth’s message should directly address their needs. If a trade show attendee sees that your business can solve their problems, they’ll be more interested in engaging with you. For instance, signage that features your value proposition or an image of your product lets attendees know immediately if your business could have what they’re looking for.
Display Effective Signage
Since your booth needs to literally stand out in a crowd, it’s important to make the most of your signage. Your signage can only attract attention from passing attendees if they can see it. Trade show booth messaging is easier to read when you display it eye-level in a large enough font to read from a distance.
You should also keep any large format messaging on your booth brief—attendees won’t see much benefit in visiting your booth if they assume they can learn everything they need to know from a sign. However, that doesn’t mean your entire display should be vague. Make sure attendees can tell who you are and what you do just by looking at your booth.
Use Consistent Branding
A professional, unified expo booth design requires consistent branding. The theme of your trade show booth design should be consistent with the theme of your brand. This includes the colors and fonts of your signage, as well as any sample items or swag you have to give away.
Balancing your design from top to bottom will also make your booth more visually appealing to attendees. Use balance to reinforce your branding by tactfully displaying your logo in different areas of your booth, such as on pens, banners, walls, and your staff’s clothing.
Offer Interactive Elements
Giving attendees the opportunity to participate in your trade booth will make your business more memorable. Plus, interactive booths encourage attendees to stick around longer, allowing your staff more time to talk with interested visitors about your business. Just make sure your interactive elements fit with your brand.
A few examples of interactive elements include:
- Product demonstrations that allow attendees to try out your products
- Touch screens that display videos, catalogues, or virtual tours
- Giveaways and games with prizes such as trivia, raffles, wheel spins, etc.
- Photo booths with props that feature your logo
- Inviting attendees to interact with your business on social media
