Your marketing plans have finally been carefully crafted and one of your efforts for this year is to exhibition in the upcoming Gitex Technology Week. Gitex, afterall, is the largest gadget and technology trading events in the Middle East. You would want to leave a good impression to everyone who visits your booth.
Whether it is your first time or nth time to exhibit in this show, a guide on how to plan your event is always helpful. We’ve also made a different post on that, so feel free to check it out >> http://boundless.ae/event-planning-for-your-stand-in-qatar-trade-shows-2016/.
This post would focus on your goal few months prior to the show – choosing the right contractor for your booth.
1. Look for experienced exhibition stand contractors.
You may ask for referral from people in your industry. If this is your first time, you can do a quick search on Google as most experienced companies have their own websites.
2. Check the company’s portfolio.
Ask for their company profile and have a look whether they’ve made some impressive designs. Request for photos of stands that they’ve built in the previous editions of Gitex Technology Week.
3. Have a look at client’s testimonials.
In their websites, contractors usually have a list of the testimonials that clients have sent them. These will help you assess whether they would be a good partner to work with. You would want someone responsive, attentive, and someone experienced in the field.
4. Confirm if these contractors can meet your timing and budget requirements.
If you can provide them your budget, it would be better so they’ll have an idea on what materials and furniture they can use in your stand. Do you want a high-end stand, a mid-range one, or an economical one?
After these steps, you should be able to narrow down your options to two or three, for easier selection. You may now request for a preliminary design from the shortlisted contractors and from there, make your final decision.
