Show yourself

What events are you spending your time at? What currently works the best for your business?

For some people it is sending out mailers, spending money on print ads and for others it is social media. Others well they go to where their audience is at a specialized tradeshows and expos.

What works best?
The very first thing would be to do a bit of research on what works best at a trade show in Los Angeles. Banner stands, leaflets, brochures, souvenirs, signup forms and a number of other items can be a part of your list. However, maximum priority should be given to those without which you simply cannot attract your prospective customers.

Banner stands are a must for trade shows. They not only work to advertise your business, but can easily be placed outside your stall to grab the attention of any passerby. In other words, they are bound to improve the footfall in your stall.

Banner stand designs
To make the most of banner stands in a Los Angeles trade show, you must consider the quality and design elements of the stand. The design should depict your products clearly, and at the same time have that element that draws customers to your stall. The design should match your specific business, and should also match perfectly with the color and structure of the stall you have setup.

Ideally, try to ensure that your stall and the banner stands closely match the colors used in your logo and other branding documents like the leaflets, magazines and brochures you plan to give out.

Sticking to your budget
Whether it is the banner stands or the other elements that you may want to display and distribute in the Los Angeles trade show, make sure you do not overspend. Trade shows are often good for improving your brand recall, but not always the best place to sell your products.

In other words, do not always expect that you are surely going to earn through sales in the trade show more than what you invest. You will see positive results with time, which is why you should decide on a budget before you start spending on advertisements and promotions in the trade show.

Buying banner stands
Finally, try to buy good quality banner stands for the trade show. If your budget does not permit you, do not go for a low quality option. Badly done banner stands may hamper your brand image.

Make sure you look at what works great, use multiple ways to reach your audience. Look for reliable and quality banner stand sellers in Los Angeles, like OverNightDisplays.com. Online sellers can offer you some very good deals and good discounts for good quality products!

A working strategy

Attending a trade show but when budgets are tight, it’s time to carefully examine your trade show strategy. Following these simple year-end planning tips may help you make the most out of your marketing budget.

What Can I Do?
Clean out your storage room.  If you have used product find out if deductions are available, or if the remaining inventory can be sold at a discount at future shows or events to help reduce your inventory tax.
Going with a trade show booth rental will not only save you money now, it will give you more time to solidify the image your company wants to project to the public in the future.  See for yourself what type of display works best for your marketing message before you purchase a brand new booth.
Think about what kind of marketing materials like brochures and tri-folds you’ll need.  Don’t go overboard, remember to leave some of the budget open for upcoming promotions or new products to be introduced or featured.  Select appropriate promotional giveaway items to boost your marketing message or product exposure.
Be open to different travel options like car or van rentals, or taking the train.  You can usually find cheaper deals and travel packages if you start planning your trade show schedule at least six months in advance, and make your reservations several weeks prior to the event.

Stay On Track for Success!
Your strategy for applying these suggestions will depend on your individual business circumstances and accounting methods.  Get creative, and you can plan your event on a manageable budget without missing out on attending and benefiting from the right trade show for you.  Make the most of the tools available to keep costs down, stand out from the crowd and get the most from your trade show experience.

Where Do I Look First?
Focus on targeting any remaining monies allocated for marketing activities that will expire at the end of the year.  Make sure to take advantage of the deals available, as many vendors will offer sales and promotions on trade show displays and accessories to clear up their inventories.
