Experiential Event Marketing Displays Increase Engagement and ROI

New Display Trends and Technology

Fortune 1000 companies cite three metrics as the most important criteria for measuring the success of a Trade Show or Event:

  1. Attendance/Participation (display visits)
  2.  Social Interaction (likes, shares, views)
  3.  Leads/Sales

Today’s consumers and decision makers, especially in our lightning fast and personalized digital landscape, expect to be wowed and “enveloped” by event experiences. Whether at a trade show, a music festival or in the mall the ability to have your display stand out in a crowded marketplace while accomplishing marketing goals takes creativity and a savvy understanding of new technologies and design trends. This does not necessarily mean flashing lights and aggressive aesthetics. The art of the display emphasizes and strengthens your brand while drawing in and engaging your target audience.

An effective display is not merely visually appealing. In addition to simply getting their attention, new experiential event concepts encourage customer interaction with your staff and products. If executed properly a modern display will influence attendees to engage, gather valuable demographic data from these visitors, create business opportunities and boost your event ROI.
