Tips for Easing Trade Show Set Up

Here are some tips for your morning trade show set up that should help make things go smoothly. Yes, some things will sound obvious. Just consider them gentle reminders.

Arrive Early

Getting there early allows you the freedom to comfortably set-up and fix any potential errors. Things always can and always go wrong. Being rushed is awful, so get there early and feel relax and at ease.

Get the Necessities

Find the registration area and gather your staff badges, show map, exhibitor directory, maps, and all other necessary materials.

Check Your Area

Check your area for set-up errors. These happen. Don’t get too upset, though. There are a lot of exhibitors jammed into a small room and sometimes there are only a few people to do the work. There’s a lot to do and only a little bit of time. Everyone really does put forth their best. But, sometimes booth measurements are incorrect, electrical outputs are wrong, there isn’t enough event furniture, the carpets aren’t situated correctly, deliveries aren’t there, supplies go missing, etc. Getting there early gives you the time to find the errors and make corrections.

Scope the Surroundings

Look around. Locate the contractors’ desks (electrician, laborers, etc.) and introduce yourself. If you’re working with an exhibitor-appointed contractor (EAC), find out through the local city manager plan on having a desk at the show floor. A token gift, such as a box of cookies or some kind of treat goes a long way.

Pinpoint the public vending machines and food truck drivers. Food trucks are oftentimes pretty good and very reasonable. Locate taxis, Ubers, etc., so you can respond to questions from staff and potential clients. Do the same for restrooms, coat checks, and other areas important to the public.

Walk around the center and take note of places to eat, drink coffee, get a snack, charge phones, get cash, office supplies, and rest. This may be important to you, as well as the public. You’ll certainly need a break at some point, too.
