PLAN YOUR NEXT TRADE SHOW STRESS-FREE
It’s never too late or too early to get organized for your next trade show or event. And no matter where you’re at in your event planning process, we’re here to help. Like anything in life, a strong foundation is vital to success.
And when it comes to the trade show industry, thoroughly planning your event will undoubtedly position you ahead of the curve.
Read on to learn how you can prepare and how we can help streamline the process for a trade show planning experience that is smooth sailing.
CREATE A MASTER CALENDAR
Part of getting organized is writing down or establishing your most important dates and pending activities. Doing so, especially if you’re a visual person, works magic and keeps you and your team accountable. Start by creating a master calendar with priority deadlines and commitments.
As you may or may not know, 2020 Exhibits also specializes in planning and managing global-scale trade shows and events. That includes creating master calendars for our clients. Together, we incorporate essential information, such as event day and location, and input critical deadlines like project start day, production start day, client preview day, target ship day and return day, move-in days, and installation and dismantle days.
We can also set up your calendar to showcase multiple events. Keeping a single calendar will help you see if you have key action items due simultaneously or on the same weekend that you’re traveling for a different show or event. Managing all your commitments in one place can give you a sense of control and help you manage your time more efficiently.
SHARE YOUR CALENDAR
Once we create your master calendar, sharing it with your team and colleagues is important so everyone is on the same page.
Through ExhibitForce’s advanced project management platform, our experienced account management team will help you design a calendar that is visible and accessible to all with all your important dates and upcoming deadlines. You’ll have an organized calendar and essential tasks set up, along with project-specific information, such as budget, inventory, event staffing, travel details, itinerary, and more. Best part? Anyone on your team can access ExhibitForce from multiple devices, in real time, and from anywhere in the world, providing you with seamless communication to help streamline your project.
SET MILESTONES
Breaking deadlines down into smaller tasks will keep you from feeling overwhelmed. By setting milestones within your project’s calendar, you’ll keep the project moving by giving your teams a sense of progress and fulfillment that gives them a natural impulse to move on to the following pending task, thereby expediting the process. ExhibitForce allows you to set up individual or team tasks for your project and see exactly what stage of completion they’re in.
Trade show planning can be stressful, so it shouldn’t be tackled alone but with the help of experts. With more than thirty-six years of experience in the trade show industry, we have mastered the art of not only creating award-winning exhibits and environments but also planning and managing extraordinary global events that motivate, inspire, and engage.
