Beat the Budget Crunch with a Modular Display
Unfortunately not today, and probably not tomorrow either, but make no mistake, in-person trade shows will be back in 2021. Almost 1000 live events are listed on the 2021 Trade Show Calendar published by Exhibit City News.
And with many exhibiting budgets reduced or re-assigned this year, the best way forward is to spend money wisely.
Modular displays are the smartest investment you can make for your trade show program. Why??
More economic than custom displays
Can be installed by your own staff
Easy to store and transport
Can be grown and reconfigured to meet the evolving needs of your trade show schedule.
Here are three types of modular displays for you to consider for your next project:
Connected Banners
Connected Banners combine the ease of retractable banner stands with the elegance of a mural backdrop. Using hidden hardware, multiple units can be joined to form one seamless back wall. This allows you to use the same display for events both large and small.
Pillowcase
Pillowcase displays are a lightweight and durable solution for building back walls. The frames are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, allowing you to create a backdrop that is as unique as your brand. Pillowcase frames can also support back-lighting for an extra layer of impact.
Magnetic Quad
A Magnetic Quad display offers the upscale appearance of a custom display, with flexible design options, reconfigurable components, and a wide array of accessories. Magnetic Quad frames support monitors, showcases, shelving, canopy lighting, and more.
