If you are looking to request a quote
on a trade show display, there is some information you should definitely
include so that you can get the most from the trade show display company
you are working with.
You should include the following:
Detailed contact information. Your name, company name, address,
phone number, e-mail address, website address, and fax number are all
important.
Information regarding what size booth you are registered for. There
is an enormous price difference between tabletop displays and massive
island displays, so be sure to let the company know where you fit into
the sliding scale.
Let them know some idea of your budget. Many customers are uncomfortable
with making their budget public knowledge, but this is one of the best
things you can do for the sake of receiving a good price. The trade
show display industry is so competitive that you will always receive
the most for your money if you put in a bit of effort.
The address where the booth will be shipped. This is crucial in estimating
your shipping cost.
Will you need graphic design? If so, be sure to let the company know
up front.
When is your show? Many smaller, less experienced trade show display
companies include outrageous rush charges, which may cost you thousands
of dollars if you need your booth to be turned around quickly.
If possible, include examples of displays you like (especially if
you have found them on the website of the display company).
In general, you should be as specific
as possible when requesting a trade show display quote. Most display
companies are not out to swindle you. At Tradeshowdirect, we provide
a quote request form (which can be found on our home page) that will
help to guide you through the process of figuring out what type of
display you want.
