'Create Maximum Visual Impact In Your Show Booths'
The content of this seminar
is geared to meet the needs of those who sell products at shows.
This popular seminar is loaded with helpful information for vintage & antique dealers
who sell at street markets and vintage shows,
though the information also applies to wholesalers with temporary booths at shows,
gift show vendors, and artisans/craftspeople who sell at fairs and street markets.
Deb will present the principles of use of booth space, layout, fixture & furniture placement,
scale, color, and basic display techniques.
Utilizing these principles as you select products and props, and then plan and set up your booth,
will help you to make a huge visual impact amid close competition on the show floor.
* Find out how to get big effects for little money (and weight and setup time).
* Get the scoop on where to find cheap materials and props.
* Learn how to plan ahead to display your products effectively,
and to provide inspiring design ideas along with merchandise to draw in customers.
* See how easy it is to create stories and themes with the merchandise you sell -
even if there aren't multiples of any items.
* Discover how easy it is to create 'photo ops' in your booths at shows -
because you DO want your booth to show up on social media!
* Hear why it is important to create a 'brand image' and use it at a show.
* Understand why using space wisely & effectively will help you
get more people entering and shopping your booth.
* Leave with a slew of ideas, inspiration, information, and a written outline
that will help you remember everything you just learned!
