Getting Started
Whether you’re an experienced exhibitor or someone who is just getting started, purchasing a new exhibit can be daunting from so many angles. How much does it cost? Am I working with a company that is able to meet all or our requirements? Where do I start?
Let’s walk through a few of the items.
Are we a fit?
First, let’s find out if we’re a fit for what you’re looking for. TradeshowGuy Exhibits works with clients who are ready for a tradeshow exhibit that better represents their brand, are tired of paying a lot to ship heavy and clunky exhibits or don’t have an overall exhibiting program to get the best return on their tradeshow marketing investment. A recent client described their previous exhibit as a “train wreck!” Yeah, we fixed it. We can go over your exhibit and logistic requirements with a few questions in a brief phone call.
We’d suggest that you simply pick up the phone and call us toll free at 800-654-6946. We won’t try to sell you something you don’t want, and we won’t pressure you in any way. We’ll look to uncover your needs, how you like to work with an exhibit house (do you need logistical support, for example?), and other pertinent items. If we’re a fit, great – we look forward to working with you! If not, perhaps we can recommend a company that may be a better fit.
Design Services
Many of our clients come to us looking for an exhibit that features great design and looks terrific on the show floor. What does it take to provide that? It’s got to represent your brand accurately, it has to have all of the elements you need to function properly at the show such as demo stations or sampling stations, along with sufficient storage for samples and personal items. Achieving the right design is typically a collaborative effort between the client and a 3D exhibit designer.
Search Thousands of Exhibits and Accessories
Our Exhibit Design Search features 100s of exhibits, displays, and accessories, including (but not limited to) banner stands, lights, rental furniture, customized tables, and of course exhibits ranging in size from 10x10s to large islands. Take a look here.
Rent vs. Purchase?
it’s an age-0ld question in the tradeshow world: should you rent or should you buy? There are arguments to be made for both cases, but if you’re still unsure, we’d be glad to walk you through them. In fact, it may be a combination: some of our clients purchase the main items of an exhibit but rent furniture or counters or tables. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer.
Logistical Support
Are you looking for assistance in setting up your exhibit? Many clients like to show up and be a part of the set up. Others prefer to show up, set up their samples in an exhibit that has been set up for them and enjoy the show. There’s no wrong answer, and we are willing to work with you in any way that works for you. Shipping is the same: want to handle it yourself, or have us coordinate shipping of the crates to and from the show site or advanced warehouse? We work in whatever way works best for you.
Looking for What’s Hot?
One of the most popular exhibits is the back lit fabric graphic light box. It’s completely customizable, and can be done in just about any size or configuration. It’s lighter to ship than most typical back walls and exhibit pieces. We can show you lots of examples – just ask!

Capture the Essence of Your Exhibit: Professional Trade Show Photography Services
In the labyrinth of exhibits at a trade show, where every brand vies for a moment in the spotlight, the true essence of your display can be immortalized by the discerning eye of a professional photographer. That’s where I step in.
For nearly two years, my lens has intricately captured the architectural elegance of real estate, revealing the soul of spaces. Now, I pivot this expertise to the bustling world of trade shows, beginning with a successful ‘test run’ at last year’s Natural Products Expo West. The result? A gallery of high-quality images that not only capture the intricate details of the trade show exhibits but also the vibrancy and spirit that animate them.
The precision of this craft is not by chance but by design. I conduct all product and booth photography in the tranquil hours before the show opens, ensuring each image reflects the serene beauty of your exhibit without the chaos of the crowd.
My galleries from last year’s Expo are a testament to this meticulous approach. They’re not just photographs; they’re a narrative of your brand’s presence at the show, waiting to be woven into the tapestry of your marketing materials in any way you see fit.
Understanding the nuances of trade show dynamics, I offer a suite of services tailored to your needs. Beyond the basic package, you can opt-in for add-ons, like group photography scheduled at your convenience or detailed product photography set against the backdrop of your booth.
The window to capture these moments is as fleeting as the event itself. To ensure the utmost quality and attention to detail, I limit my services to twelve clients per day. This exclusivity is not just about managing time; it’s about dedicating my focus to each frame I capture.
Distinguishing our process, we employ techniques like HDR bracketing, meticulously blending several exposures to craft the final high-fidelity image. While we honor the event’s authenticity, our post-processing can subtly cleanse the frame, focusing the viewer’s gaze solely on your exhibit.
In the competitive arena of trade shows, every edge counts. Hiring a professional photographer isn’t just about preserving memories; it’s about elevating your brand’s narrative in a way that resonates long after the exhibition halls have emptied.
Step beyond the standard and let’s capture the true essence of your exhibit, where every detail speaks volumes to your audience.
