Booth Design Idea’s Tips For Beginners

Is this your first time exhibiting at a trade show in Miami? Not sure where to even start? We can help! We’ve put together this list of some key areas to focus on when planning for your event in Miami, Florida:

Budget

Make sure you have defined a budget that is aligned with your needs.  If you plan on exhibiting at multiple shows, then purchasing a full booth or display may be the best option.  If this is the first and only show you plan on attending, then the more affordable option of renting a trade show booth may be better.  It’s important to weigh these options and decide what is best for your company.  There are numerous different routes that can be taken depending on your budget.  And at Booth Design Ideas we work hard to try to meet your needs and stay within budget!

Timeline

Creating a set timeline for your event is an important aspect for anyone who plans to exhibit at a trade show.  However, it is especially crucial for first-timers.  Usually, anywhere from 6-8 months out from your event date is an ideal time to start planning your first step to your goal of getting your booth or display built.  What is not ideal is waiting until the last minute, especially if this is your first time exhibiting at a show.  Having more time will allow for a more complete and comprehensive end result.  In addition to your pre-show timeline, it’s also important to allow additional time for any unforeseen complications that may be introduced.

Show Size

Many first time exhibitors often believe that the bigger the show the better.  While this may be true in some cases, it does not always work in your favor.  You want to make sure that you do the proper research before choosing any event.  This ensures that you will stand out from any potential competitors.  For example, if you know that one of your top competitors has a 90 x 90 booth locked down, your plans for a 10 x 20 spot might be overshadowed by such a large display.  Be careful that you are not exhibiting at shows that are “out of your league.” While they may be tempting, if you are just starting out, it is best to start at a level where you are comfortable and work your way up to meet those high-end competitors.

Placement

Proper location of your booth is often overlooked but could be the most critical aspect as to whether your booth is a success or a flop.  Going back to our tip about timelines, starting the process early can also ensure that you have first-pick at where you would like your booth to be located.  We call these highly desired areas “sweet spots.”  An example of a “sweet spot” is typically on the corners of a row. This location offers two entrance points for clients and extraordinary walk-by traffic.  Other “sweet spots” include the entrance to the trade show itself, which offers a point of high traffic and passersby.  The type of booth space that you book at your show is also something to take into consideration.  Inline, Island, and Peninsula booths are the common names for the type of spot that you reserve at a trade show.  Peninsula booths lie at the end of a row of inline booths, making them ideal because this is usually where consumers first look before heading down the next aisle of displays.  Although the placement and type of booth are both important, its how you use your space to display your brand that really matters.
