Exhibition signage solutions - you only get one opportunity
That is why so many entrepreneurs allocate large amounts of capital towards digital signage solutions, stands and billboard advertising during these occasions. In the world of public exhibitions he who shouts loudest is most often heard.
Lacking content
Regrettably, the content businesses choose to display at these events is habitually lacking or misrepresentative of the product offering. Without a clear communication and marketing strategy, many entities find themselves investing significant funding into the platform without spending enough time on crafting the message.
The result is often disappointing. Poorly formatted presentation decks featuring grainy imagery, uninteresting video content strung together just days before the event on a mobile phone, are unintuitive and often complex. Leaving behind information are commonplace in these environments.
To get the right message across, business owners should ensure that they allocate budget towards the full spectrum of public communication. This means creating content that is interesting, professional and effective.
Interactive approach
A touch based approach is an interactive response to this challenge. Today there are many platforms available to business owners that allow for a bespoke gesture based solution at an affordable price point.
Omnitapps, a business centric multi touch development hub, is one such offering.
Equipping the business owner with a comprehensive yet easy to use interface, this solution allows businesses to create their own touch portals swiftly and professionally. Coupled with a commercial grade display, this can often mean the difference between lack of interest in a corporate exhibition stand and becoming the life of the party - so to speak.
Vast resources
With so many efficient and affordable tools at our disposal there, there is simply no excuse for entrepreneurs to allow their organisation to be poorly represented at an exhibition or trade show.
In these settings content and communication method are equally important. Instead of equipping large format displays with poor messaging, rather scale down and focus on sharing information that is interactive and entertaining.
