Branding is key for a cohesive tie-in to your company’s appearance, so ensuring your booth & banner graphics along with all your marketing collateral is branded and current. No time for a new booth, promote your company using 3 stand-up banners positioned side-by-side can equal a 10-foot booth area, additionally, the panels are less costly to replace. Engage your prospects with touch screens. Provide demos of your products and services. On a budget, iPads are also effective and provide the same interaction where multiple prospects can be involved.
