Ideas on How to Display Booking Slide at Booth

[elizabethfox]

Any ideas on how to set up or display the bookings slide at a vendor show?

I have a 8 ft table and a bookings slide all ready ( covered in plastic sleeves) but I have no clue how to set it up.

I thought maybe taping each card to the front of the table, but then with people coming up to the table and looking at stuff (A) they would probably knock them off and (B) if people are standing in front of them they won't be seen.

So then I have this cute little bakers rack I bought from a Home Interiors gal, and I thought about maybe setting that up and having a display board on it with the cards all over like sort of a collage.

I want this to be eye catching and something that stands out to people. I have each benefit one a different bright colored paper, and am hoping to get some bookings for the next coming months...so far I have had no luck getting March or April shows...so I need to get some from this vendor show or I am stuck!

Any ideas??

I'm sorry Elizabeth, I don't have an idea...I've been wondering the same thing myself. I have a Women's Night Out at a Design Center on Thursday, and I'm trying to figure out how to maximize the bookings slide idea at my station...

Has anyone done this at a booth or vendor fair?

I have a fair on the 21st of March. I'm thinking of hanging it from the shade canopy that I will have, I'm still inthe wondering how I'm going to do it stage...

I had printed the slides out on colorful paper and was able to tape to the wall behind my booth.

try to request a wall behind you and tape it up .

AH HA! My husband just mentioned taking a 2x4 and making a base for it...cutting it down to like my height.... Then I can attach the booking slide at the top of the stand and it will hang down nicely...then i can set it beside my table....who hoo!!

I love it when a plan comes together!

if you have a mini dvd player save them on a presentation in windows and do as a mini slide show should be short or put 4 to page and do a mini flip chart in a 4x6 photo album

I would definitely keep the pages together and have it all open - for the WOW effect! Sounds like you found a way to do it. I have a booth in April and I'll have it coming down from my canopy to the ground.

I went to Michaels and got a 'presenation' thing - think Science Fair... It's on page 3 of this attachment (sorry - I've been building word documents with a bunch of notes - to look at later - rather then surf the web at work..) anyways, I think this is going to be a good thing...

I put info in word - and am going to scrapbook style post them onto the board.

I hope this all makes sense!!!

My booth buddy Liz and I saw this board at an event in Canton. We were so impressed with the board that we went right out and made ourselves one. Well actually, we made 2, one for each of us because sometime we do get separated and do a booth without the other one!

I am bringing mine to a fundraiser on Sat and will take a pic of what we used in ours. If you make one of these for yourself, do not forget to put something on the back. I made a sign for the middle of the back with the PC logo, our names and phone number on it so we get advertising from all directions. I usually put mine on an tripod thing so that it stands besides my table.

I have had several other DS company reps ask me about it and how I did it.

I've been trying to figure out how to display mine for a vendor show in march. I LOVE your idea... and I think my husband will like the project.

imagine a flagpole in a metal base - the pole is the 2x4, the base is whatever. Then just tape the booking slide on the flagpole.

yes does anyone have a picture I have a business fair on Tuesday Night and I was wondering how to display mine!

 

[easytoprepare]

I was at a business event 2 weeks ago, and got a GREAT idea. Take 2 corkboards and hinge them together...you can tack up whatever you want instead of having flyers all over. I did it (cost $20.94 for 2 cork board and 2 hinges) for a vendor fair I had last weekend and it worked out GREAT! I have other vendors comment that they were going to copy it.

 

[cewcooks]

sounds good but this is silly, what is cork board?
