Trade shows are a prime opportunity to showcase your brand, attract potential customers, and create lasting impressions. With hundreds of exhibitors competing for attention, your signage plays a crucial role in drawing visitors to your booth. A well-designed trade show sign can set you apart from the competition by amplifying your brand visibility. Here’s how we design trade show signage to ensure that our clients truly stand out.
We keep it clear and concise
Your trade show signage needs to communicate your message quickly and effectively. Most attendees will glance at a sign for just a few seconds before deciding whether to engage. We focus on using concise, compelling language that highlights what your business offers in a way that is easy to read and understand. By using large, bold fonts, we achieve readability from a distance. We know that by keeping text minimal, sticking to your company name, tagline and with a strong call to action, we limit excessive information that can overwhelm viewers of your stand.
We use eye-catching colours
Colour psychology plays a major role in how your brand is perceived. The right colour scheme can attract attention, create emotions, and reinforce brand recognition. We guide you to choose colours that align with your brand identity while ensuring high visibility. By using contrasting colours for text and background, we ensure that readability is as enhanced as possible. Our team achieves brand consistency and recognition for you through correct usage of your brand colours, and by avoiding overly bright or clashing colours that may otherwise be distracting.
We recommend only high-quality graphics
Low-resolution images and pixelated graphics can make your brand appear unprofessional. High-quality visuals not only capture attention but also convey a sense of credibility and trustworthiness. By using professional photography, clean illustrations, and modern design elements, we can enhance the impact of your signage. We ensure that your vector graphics are rendered to ensure sharp visuals at any size, that designs are clean and uncluttered to avoid visual overload, and that your logo is prominently incorporated to enhance brand recall.
We guide you in choosing the right signage materials
The material of your signage affects its durability, portability, and overall impact. Trade shows can be fast-paced environments, so choosing sturdy yet lightweight materials will ensure your signage remains in great condition while being easy to set up and transport. We have a supplier footprint to ensure your signage is constructed from materials that deliver a signage product that is durable, cost-effective, easy to install, lightweight and lasting.
We incorporate smart signage elements
Static signs are great, but interactive signage can elevate your trade show booth experience. By adding modern elements like QR codes to your signage, or other promotional touchpoints, we ensure that you engage attendees and make your booth more memorable. With the simple addition of a QR code, your exhibit visitor leaves connected to your brand story, produce demos, catalogues or other special promotions.
We ensure strategic placement
Even the best-designed signage won’t be effective if it’s not visible. Proper placement is key to maximizing exposure and attracting foot traffic to your booth. We understand the importance of sightlines and working with the flow of attendees, when deciding where to position your signs and the elements within the signage. We ensure that large banners are placed above eye level for maximum visibility from a distance, that your directional signage guides visitors toward your booth, and that all table-top signs and promotional materials are at eye level.
We know how to reinforce your brand identity
Your trade show signage should be a seamless extension of your brand. Consistency in fonts, colours, logos, and messaging helps build recognition and trust. When attendees see familiar branding elements across different platforms, they are more likely to remember and engage with your business. Our team ensures consistency with your website of logo, fonts, colours and other marketing materials. We maintain a consistent brand voice across all signage text and ensure signage that is aligned with your company’s core values and offerings.
We know how to add a strong call to action
Signarama’s enduring objective is to encourage attendees to act after seeing your signage. Whether it’s visiting your booth, scanning a QR code, signing up for a demo, or following your social media, a clear call to action (CTA) will drive engagement and conversions. We ensure that a call to action is included in your signage materials to deliver maximum ROI from your signage investment.
Trade show signage is a powerful marketing tool that can attract, engage, and convert potential customers. By working with our experienced signage team, you will have total peace of mind that your trade show presence is supported by compelling signage that makes a lasting impact and helps your brand stand out in a crowded trade show environment.
