Custom trade show display design

For those who have zero experience on marketing and advertising of your products and services in trade show events, this is how you can plan and design  your own trade show booth.

Question: We have never been to a trade show before. What advice do you have for trade show booths and graphics, etc?

Marketing and advertising in trade show conventions can cost a lot of bucks considering the price tags of the printed graphics and displays in today’s time. This is how you can make an impact in trade show conventions, making that investment worth its money.

How valuable are trade show exhibits for companies marketing their products and services?

Question: We’re trying to determine if trade shows are worth attending as an exhibitor. Can you give our company any input?
