Exhibition Stand Productivity Tip:
No.1 - Smile, Smile, Smile
An exhibition hall is a great platform for gaining new business for many companies. Making a lasting impression on prospects and existing clients is critical.
Part of that lasting impression will be how you act on the exhibition stand. Enjoy it and smile! Smiling is contagious and you will be remembered for having a happy stand staff too. If your stand staff mood is upbeat, more people are likely to stop by.
To keep that happy mood throughout the show have a back up plan for anything technical in case it goes wrong and build a price into the budget for cushioning the floor. It is hard enough working the stand all day without having to stand on hard concrete for 8 hours.
Eating and drinking on a stand is a no go area! It is extremely unprofessional and puts people off. The only the exception is if you are holding a guest event on the stand where you offer drinks and nibbles after hours. Make sure the break rota is worked out for the daytime to beat fatigue and to have the opportunity to get a snack off the stand.
