The Ultimate Tradeshow Checklist

Don't be like these guys. Make sure you have what you need with our trade show guide!

The Obvious but Vital Stuff:

  • Booth Number and Location
    • Booth Number: Write it down, memorize it, tattoo it on your arm—just make sure you know where you're going. 
    • Location Map: Print a map of the tradeshow floor. Trust us, navigating a tradeshow can be tricky.

Essential Products for a Well-Designed Booth:

  • Eye-catching Banners
    • Vibrant, professionally designed banners from Purple Frog Graphics. These banners come in various sizes and styles, including retractable banners, fabric banners, and vinyl banners, all tailored to grab attention and convey your brand message effectively.
  • Booth Signage
    • Clear, concise signs to guide visitors and showcase your offerings. Purple Frog Graphics offers customizable signs that ensure your booth is easily found amidst the tradeshow hustle.
  • Custom Backdrops
    • Stunning backdrops that tell your brand story and grab attention. Whether you need a seamless fabric backdrop or a tension fabric display, Purple Frog Graphics provides high-quality options that make your booth stand out.
  • Brochure Stands
    • Keep brochures, flyers, and other literature neatly displayed. Purple Frog Graphics offers portable and durable brochure stands that not only organize your materials but also add a professional touch to your booth.
  • Product Samples and Promotional Items
    • Plenty of samples to hand out—people love freebies! Make sure to keep the good stuff out of reach of those tire kickers – keep the good stuff reserved for high end prospects!

Commonly Forgotten Items:

  • Business Cards
    • Bring more than you think you’ll need. Seriously, double it. Purple Frog Graphics can design and print high-quality business cards that reflect your brand's identity.
  • Extension Cords and Power Strips
    • Ensure your booth stays powered with plenty of outlets.
  • Pens and Notepads
    • For jotting down notes, contacts, and possibly doodling during lulls. Get custom-branded pens and notepads from Purple Frog Graphics to reinforce your brand even in the small details.

Things That Could Be Overlooked but Are Handy:

  • Tape and Scissors
    • Essential tools for last-minute fixes and adjustments.
  • Portable Phone Charger
    • Keep your phone charged and ready with a portable charger.
  • Comfortable Shoes
    • You’ll be on your feet all day; your feet will thank you.

Bonus Tips:

  • Pre-Show Checklist
    • Review this checklist a week before the show to ensure nothing is missed.
  • Team Coordination
    • Make sure everyone knows their roles and responsibilities.
  • Have Fun
    • Enjoy the tradeshow, meet new people, explore other booths, and have a blast.

With this checklist, you're not just prepared—you’re tradeshow ready! Remember, preparation is key to a successful show, and a well-prepared booth is a memorable one. So, pack up, double-check everything, and go rock that tradeshow!
