Trade show booth?
 
I am seriously considering of getting one, either buying one or having a custom one built. I am not set on a design yet so I'd like to see as many of them as possible. I am looking for some companies that do this kinda stuff. Suggestions?

This is my dad's company...let me know and he can set you up with anything from a 10x10 to a complete show floor.

We have an 2 story booth, that has been used a couple times. Would cost you $150k+ to build it. Not sure if you are looking for something that bad.

I would say 'you are way behind the curve, if you are thinking of putting a lot of money in one. Go for whatever will actually help you sell your product/service and forget about 'keeping up with the Joneses...... The Joneses aren't what they used to be anyway.

The shipping and drayage will kill ya - so keep it simple. They have some pretty nice popups nowdays.

Don't buy...rent. Hit me up...this is my family biz.

candyflip: Thanks, I am looking at the site trying to get an idea.

On the side note, mouse overs on the site aren't cached and even on a DSL the site is a retard, the menus take 2 seconds to load and pop-up. I suggest you talk to the designer and have that fixed. I can not even imagine what happens on a dial-up.

They're obviously not webmasters :winkwink:

I would rent

This allows you to change up a little everytime

Jeff Pursley would be a strong suggestion he does very good work.

Wanna explain how a 2 story booth can cost more than a 2 story house? Sounds like BS to me.

Thanks...though I only lend a hand when it gets extra busy. I'm good at building crates if anyone needs one. :1orglaugh Maybe I can parlay this into a sales position.

They put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into the whole operation. Clients see that and remain loyal. Does wonders for business...even in the tough times.

Even the Major companies are renting portions of the exhibits. Rental really is the way to go for the consumer. You're able to change your layout from show to show. You're not shelling out big bucks for something you'll get little use out of.

Offices and warehouses convenient to our industries major events...is another nice point to mention.

Different industry...lots of different things involved.

I would probably guess that they're two story at $150k was a good deal. They're starting on one next week for Sharp that's basically a house loaded with Sharp's products...it's easily and $500k show.

Obviously you have never delt in tradeshow booths, shit is expensive. You can spend $100k easy. Not to mention set-up, shipping, etc.

There are tax reasons to own, and not rent. Talk to your cpa.
