Keep your customers / staff happy and engaged
Staff
There are many ways to improve staff morale from corporate days out to bonuses and merits.
However awarding them with trophies / awards personalised with their own name and championing them around your colleagues is longer lasting.
Desktop items work better and can be kept in the office as a constant reminder of acheivement.
Customers
Providing a good service at competitive prices is not always enough these days and many times we forget to thank our clients for the orders they have placed.
It is considered good manners to send out thank you cards along with a small gift such as a complimentary chocolate or even a travel mug with the recipients name on it.
Create more awareness for your brand
Now that your staff and customers are happier and morale is at an all time high. Why not look into ways you can really make your logo stand out.
Tradesman put their designs on big banners or right across their vans but you do not have to be quite this loud. A simple embroidered logo on a polo shirt makes a statement to your professionalism.
Why not purchase purchase pens in all the colours of your brand this is inexpensive and attracts people to wherever you may be exhibiting.
Promote your event
There has never been more ways to communicate when an event is taking place.
From social media ie Facebook and Twitter to banners on homepages and radio advertising, potential customers/ existing clients really shouldn't miss a thing.
Getting noticed in a room / hall filled with like minded companies is the tricky bit.
The human eye responds better to colour and shape more than text so make sure exhibition stands are unique and the points of sale material bright and clear.
Buying exhibition space can be expensive and we are working very hard to come up with starter packs including a simple banner, table cloth, t-shirt and promo item all branded for very low costs.
