Exhibiting Tips for HD Expo + Conference 2023

Open to notable and qualified buyers in the hospitality industry, everyone browsing the expo floor is there to find the next big thing for 2023. Enticing them to visit your exhibit isn’t just about the exhibit itself. You need to take advantage of the full show in order to maximize your results and bring home every possible lead.

Here are three tips that’ll help be dynamic, bold, and inspiring at HD Expo + Conference 2023.

#1 Know your audience.

Not all hospitality professionals are the same. And that goes double for the attendees at HD Expo + Conference. Their careers span the gamut, from nationally and internationally known hotels, restaurants, bars/lounges, spas, casinos, hybrids, nightclubs, golf/country/social clubs, and cruise ships. Many carefully curate their brand’s products and services to meet their unique aesthetic and clients’ particular tastes.

Knowing what your target audience wants – from their style and aesthetic to how much value they place on functionality and convenience – will help you craft the perfect exhibit message.

#2 Attend other events at HD Expo + Conference 2023

There’s more than one way to catch someone’s eye. Attending events, special sessions, and social hour fun at HD Expo + Conference 2023 will give you a more casual, relaxed atmosphere in which to meet and greet your potential customers. Just think about it – if you’ve met someone outside an expo show, you’re far more likely to visit their exhibit, right? Same goes for your potential customers.

You’ll find the full show agenda here.

#3 Plan your time well.

Create an itinerary or schedule for yourself and your staff working the exhibit. Include events, education sessions, social gatherings, and anything else that you’ll be attending. This way you and your team will always know who will be at the exhibit at any given time, and where to reach people if they need them.

Of course, all this meeting and greeting won’t help if you don’t have a stellar exhibit with which to wow your new friends!

An Exhibit Exhibit Checklist

Luckily, creating a stellar exhibit is easy for experienced exhibit exhibit builders like us. We’ve decided to share a bit of our knowledge in this checklist. Trust us: we know a few things about building the best exhibit exhibit!

1. Pick the focal point, and product/service.
   1. Which of your products best fit attendees needs?
   2. Do you have any new products, services or technologies that offer solutions to the attendee?
   3. How can you let attendees experience these new things?
   4. Design a marketing/content campaign around what’s relevant and what’s new.
2. Choose the right exhibit size for your message.
   1. 10’ x 10’: ideal for a single product or service, or a small line of products. You have room for multiple display cases, 3D graphic wall, custom light display and flooring, and one seating configuration.
   2. 10 x 20: good solution for those showing a variety of products in the exhibit. It has 20 feet of graphic back wall, multiple seating configurations for demonstrations and education, in addition to custom light and flooring that come standard with our exhibit rentals.
   3. 20 x 20: Exhibit Experience usually recommends 20’ x 20’ exhibits, as these offer demonstration space, enclosures for private viewing, and dozens of other configuration options. However, we understand that many companies have limited budgets this year.
3. Decide if you will rent or DIY your exhibit.
   1. Experience is key when it comes to standing out at large-scale tradeshows.
   2. Local tradeshow exhibit rentals for the upcoming HD Expo + Conference 2023 will help you go that extra mile.
4. Design a memorable in-exhibit experience.
   1. No matter the size, your exhibit should tell a seamless brand story.
   2. Pro Tip: include an interactive experience for your exhibit visitors.
5. Build and train the right team.
   1. Having the right exhibit staff is just as important as having the right design.
   2. Include a mix of people from sales, technical, customer service and management.
6. Ditch the hard sell.
   1. Instead of trying to get sales, focus instead on how your products or services solve a problem.
7. Create an itinerary with the networking and social events, educational sessions, and other activities you want to attend. This way you and your team will know when you’ll be at the exhibit.
8. Follow up. Use the travel time home to send follow-up emails to thank visitors for their time and remind them about your company.
