Attending an exhibition or event comes with many questions and queries to ensure the day runs smoothly. It doesn’t matter if you’re experienced in the exhibition environment or attending for the first time, there’s always room to learn more about the event industry and to get to grips with the basics.
Our most frequently asked questions have been listed below, with the hope to help and advise as you’re getting ready for your upcoming events.
How much will your stand cost?
How much will a stand cost is a very popular question, and one that doesn’t have a straight answer. This depends on many variables. How big is your stand? Which printed accessories would you like? And most importantly, what budget are you working with?
Generally speaking, the cost can range between £400-£3000. There are times when it can be significantly more, but it’s important to know that more cost-effective options are available.
Completing thorough research on the display options available for stand size is a great place to start when it comes to working through your budget limitations.
How long I should leave myself to organise an event?
The answer can change based on experience and if you’ve been to an event before. But on average, looking at your tradeshow requirements 6-8 weeks before should leave you in good stead for planning and receiving deliveries.
Do remember that bespoke or hire stands could take long.
Also, factor in time for design, as you may find this can entail back and forth communication to get the design perfect.
How many members of staff are needed on the day?
If you have a smaller space 2-3 people will suffice, but if you have a larger space, you could be in the region of 5-8 people.
When planning your exhibition stand and organising staff, provide each member with a certain job. This should cover each aspect of the tradeshow stand & provide some guidance for the team throughout an already busy day.
Scheduling the right amount of people will ensure the best customer service can be offered.
What is the best type of exhibition stand?
From Pop Ups to Modular and everything in between, the exhibition stand market has a lot to offer.
Pop ups are a popular choice and can effectively and successfully create an impact. Pop Up Display Stands are easy to use, and can be transported easily.
Modular Exhibition Stands provide a unique and extremely flexible stand solution but are reconfigurable, slim line and simple to assemble.
To choose the right stand for you, look at how many events you’ll be attending, the stand size you normally have and the most important aspect of a stand. Laying these answers out will prove useful when choosing your exhibition stand and making the right investment.
