If you missed our previous blog post about nailing your exhibition marketing before the event takes place, make sure to read it before you read this post in order to get the full picture.
Once you’re already at the exhibition a lot of your marketing should have already taken place and you should have a strong plan in place for your marketing on the day.
Your exhibition marketing is key throughout every single stage of the exhibition process – without it, you could see your stand flop, or your follow up methods fail.
In this mini blog series, we are going to take you through the musts of exhibition marketing before, during and after your event or exhibition to make sure you get the most out of the event as possible.
Planning an exhibition and acquiring a stand can take a huge chunk of your time, not to mention the time then spent on exhibition and graphic design for your stand.
Luckily, there are providers out there who can do this for you – from creating your corporate branding to your banners and graphics, to your carpets, furniture and electricity needs.
Outsourcing and hiring these exhibition stand designers can have a huge impact on the preparation of your exhibition.
Knowing how to use your brand to appeal to an exhibition audience could make the difference between coming back with many leads and coming back with none. Here we look at how best to use your brand in the right way to appeal to the exhibition attendees.
Exhibitions can have many benefits when you’re attending those in
your industry.
They’re great for selling and making connections within your own industry, but did you know there are also many benefits for going to exhibitions that are outside of your industry?
"4 Cancer Group is a cancer respite charity with a sporting focus. Consequently, we have a wide range of exhibition and event needs across a large number of different sports. 200m2 has helped us to obtain value in an area where we were being overcharged in the past. With an an adaptable stand and replaceable graphics, our events are now easy to manage."
Andrew Hayward, Trustee, 4 Cancer Group
"We have worked with 200m² Exhibitions on a number of occasions and always found them to be very helpful, professional and great value for money. At our Volunteer conference in Oxford the guys loaned us some fantastic banner display stands that really set off the conference. As well as providing the stands and banners they also gave up their free time to assist with the build and breakdown. Great work, thank you!"
Communications Co-ordinator, Make-A-Wish
"FIS is the world’s largest global provider of banking and payments technologies. Consequently, global exhibitions and conferences are a major part of our marketing strategy. We contacted 200m2 to assist us with an exhibition in the Middle East. It was clear to us that these guys knew what we were looking for. Since the show in the Middle East, 200m2 has taken responsibility for our other exhibitions around the world. As exhibition stand contractors, we have found 200m2′s service, products, customer care and value for money to be of the highest order"
Richard Cooper, VP International Marketing Strategy, FIS
"From project scope to final design outcome, the process could not have been more professional. At many events we are a ‘platinum sponsor’ where the level of expectation from the event organiser is exceptionally high. On each occasion the stand has been in use, we have received very positive feedback and requests to re-exhibit at future events. From our perspective, we have nothing but praise for 200m2 and look forward to many more successful exhibitions."
Richard Mose, Managing Director, Interact Medical
"As part of a conference at Canary Wharf in London, 200m2 delivered a full blown stage and seven separate exhibition stands where various OEM’s could display their products. 200m² Exhibitions played a critical role working with us to develop a solution and handled the ever changing dynamics with true professionalism. I would estimate that we had over 30 different layouts which were all drawn up and laid out in CAD for approval. Great job 200m² – we will be using you again!"
Peter Jackson, Commercial Director, Red e2
"Portrait Photography is highly competitive. It is vital for us to show our products in the best possible light. The CROSSwire system definitely meets our requirements and together we managed to develop a bespoke hanging system for our portfolio. This was a challenging objective which could not be met by a straightforward off the shelf product. All in all I am very satisfied with the product but also the professional approach of 200m² Exhibitions."
Lionel Cherruault, Director, Nousha Photography
“when searching for a highly versatile solution that would lift our brand at shows and events we came across the X10 CROSSWIRE from 200m2. The versatility of the units, their weight, ease of set up and multiple arrangements was just what we needed. Having bought a 6 panel configuration we have given ourselves the opportunity to have a large single display or even break it down to 3 x 2 panels displays. Having costed other options the X10 CROSSWIRE with its flight case is very competitive. Highly recommended”
Conor Swift - RYA Membership Development Manager
“At Upgrade Bikes Ltd we attend two or three major exhibitions a year where we use the X10 CROSSwire system as the framework for our self-built stand designs.
We love the fact that its easy to store and transport, fast to build and breakdown and looks professional every time. Combined with high quality printed banners, X10 CROSSwire allows us new designs each time and affords enormous savings over contracted stand builds. We regularly recommend 200m2 Exhibition Ltd to others and are very happy to do so here too.”
