Whether you’re organizing or attending, barbed elastic cord is an essential element for success at any trade show event. It is one of the basic foundational items behind so many of the aspects of a show, regardless of what role it’s playing. For example:
Name badges—It’s all about networking, so there’s almost no point in a trade show without name badges. Everyone needs one fitted with sturdy, barbed elastic cord. But make your trade show name badges extra smart:
- Name and organization should be in large, easy-to-read print
- Include a QR code for a special offer or freebie
- Print a map of the venue or neighborhood on the back
Welcome packages—Don’t forget the bulk barbed elastic cord for the folders you hand out when everyone arrives. Attendees really appreciate the envelop-type of folders secured with elastic cord so things don’t fall out. Go the extra mile with thick barbed elastic cord loops where they can safely stash their pen or other items as they roam the booths.
Signage and displays—For those designing their booths for the next trade show, you know that barbed and looped cord is essential for any hanging display in your booth. Focus on good layout and don’t over clutter the displays; but don’t go for overly simple either (a trend that is on its way out). Look for ways to incorporate technology in useful ways, even with your display materials.
For example: understand that the smartphone is an essential tool for attendees and organizers. Incorporate QR codes, displays that make good selfies, phone charging stations, touch screens and image projection into your booth this year!
