Do you find your trade show budget cut in half or worse? Are you exhibiting at less shows this year than ever before? Maybe where it didn't make sense to rent before it does now!
General rule of thumb was that if you go to three or more shows a year it was more cost effective to buy rather than rent. This year has changed. It may very well be that you are only going to two or three shows. Considered the cost to refurbish your exhibit, add new graphics vs. renting a cost efficient exhibit from a rental exhibit house.
The nice thing about renting is that that exhibit house should know exactly how much it should cost for you to exhibit with their booth in your exhibiting city because odds are they have sent that booth there before. So not only do you update your look and up the professionalism of your company while working with the exhibit house to target your marketing goals. But you have also most likely saved cash and in today's economy, CASH IS KING!

Keep your exhibit up with the times
Don't throw your old exhibit away until you have looked into refurbishment. Keep your exhibit up with the times by consulting your exhibit house to try and lighten up your exhibit and make it more cutting edge.
It doesn't take a lot of money to repair / refurbish your old exhibit if it does not represent you well respectively. Often times I have seen the folks at Exhibe Corporation take a 14 create heavy exhibit and turn it into a professional looking exhibit up with the times using half the creates and cutting the weight significantly. How!?
First off, no one builds or packs or fits exhibit creates like Exhibe Corporation does. They have been building creates for over 25 years and have some of their rental creates that are over 20 years old. They are build lighter, stronger and designed to fit more than most competitors creates.
Step two is to element any and all unnecessary parts and add any components to speed up the setup time of the display. Then they will build all additional parts according to the design that would have been presented, reviewed, estimated and approved by you ahead of time all at a fraction of the cost to rebuild the same exhibit.

Trade show attendance is down. Good or Bad?
Trade show attendance is down across the board expect for a few industries. Is this a good or bad thing?
Less attendance is a bad sign and you should cut back on the shows this year. Logic would say this but many would argue that while less people are attending shows, the ones that do attend are the decision makers.
Companies are not sending all of the "gofers" or assistance to the shows anymore. They are sending the decision makers to save time, money and unnecessary expenses. With less attendances and less exhibitors you can expect that you will be seen by each and every attendee as well. Especially with other companies cutting back on display expenses, if you have a well put together professional looking display that exhibits your marketing message the best you will have the opportunity to "steal the show."
Bottom line is that trade shows are still the most economical way to put yourself in front of a large qualified group of people meaning your business will be better served cutting back on other expenses prior to your trade show budget. Especially with companies that have a long turn around time; you will be cutting your future sales/leads out of the mix and could be in worst shape than now.
Good luck and we'll see you on the trade show floor.
