Tips from the Pros

  1. Plan Ahead: Start planning 3-6 months before the event. Create an action plan, designate roles, and read the show manual thoroughly to understand rules, deadlines, and services.

  2. Set Clear Goals: Align your event objectives with your organization's goals. Define your target audience and tailor your booth experience to their interests.

  3. Design a Memorable Booth: Incorporate interactive elements like virtual reality or kiosks to engage visitors. Consider sponsorship opportunities to extend your brand's reach.

  4. Train Your Team: Assemble a diverse booth team that includes salespeople and customer service representatives. Ensure they are well-trained to represent your brand.

  5. Use High-Quality Images: Ensure your graphics are high-resolution and optimized for large-format printing. Vector images are ideal as they maintain quality when resized.

  6. Choose the Right File Formats: Use formats like EPS, AI, or PDF for vector graphics. Convert RGB colors to CMYK for accurate printing.

  7. Consider Viewing Distance: Adjust DPI based on how close or far your audience will be from the display. Higher DPI is better for close-up viewing.

  8. Optimize Logistics: Plan for shipping and storage of your booth materials. Coordinate with your printer to ensure timely delivery and setup.
