Unpopular Opinion - having a single source of truth for everything that happens for an event is unrealistic. As humans we are inclined to reinvent the wheel. I've witnessed it countless times onsite at events. No matter how much effort you put into your event specs, there will be someone who wants to put it into "the way they need to see it to be able to understand it". What if the goal was not to force a SINGLE source of truth, but rather make the goal to reduce redundancy and create consistency in how we handle our production schedules, space allocation, av specs, f&b specs, etc.... #eventpros #eventlife #meetingplanner #eventlogistics

What if you could double your impact on the #tradeshow floor?? Double deck booths are not something that you see everyday on the show floor. And for that reason, they really stand out. They provide a ton of functionality, adding additional space, height, pressence and of course the ability to quite literally ride above the noise of the show hall! Here is a peek at one of our rental decks… yes, you don’t need to buy one… you can rent it, and get the benefits without that major investment! *Are you tired of off site meeting rooms where your customers need to Uber there as it’s so far away? *Are you tired of not having enough room in your booth space to do the demos, the meeting and the hospitality? *Are you tired of blending in with a booth that doesn’t stand out? If you answered yes to any of these questions… a double deck might be just what the doctor ordered!! 🩺🎯 #eventprofs #exhibits #experientialmarketing #tradeshows

Part of my pre-conference routine involves sitting in the moderator's chair and seeing myself on screen. This helps me ensure the lighting is just right, the composition is balanced, and our guests have a clear view of the discussion. Who knows one day perhaps I'll even get to contribute to the conversation. #EventManagement #ConferencePlanning #CorporateEvents #EventProfs #BusinessConferences #NetworkingEvent #ProfessionalDevelopment #EventMarketing #IndustryConference #EventTech #EventPlanners

“That one time I got electrocuted setting up a trade show booth . . .” Yes, it really happened! There I was, utility knife in hand, following the labor tech’s (misguided) instructions to “cut the wire.” I did it—then ZAP! Electricity jolted through me, knocking me to the floor. Smoke rose, and my team watched in horror. Determined to meet the exhibit deadline, I got up, took a few steps—and collapsed again. But after some water and a lot of relief that I was still alive, my team and I got back to work. We set up the booth, launched a great product, and made a big impact at that show. What I learned from this (besides avoiding live wires!) is that success isn’t just about ideas—it’s about great partnerships. The magic happens when clients, vendors, and creatives are aligned. In good times or bad, it’s those relationships that make things happen. Here are three key takeaways: • Clear communication is key—set expectations from day one. • Stay agile—things WILL change, especially at events. • Respect expertise—trust in your partners’ skills makes all the difference. Partnerships built on trust and execution deliver results every time. Ready to make your next project “electrifying”?

Tardy for the Party: The Price of Procrastination Are you a "Patty" or a "Larry" when it comes to managing your company's exhibit shows? Linda L Armstrong highlights the cost of procrastination in her timeless #TBT Exhibitor Group article. For new exhibit managers or those who tend to leave things to the last minute, ordering early is key. With budgets tight and costs like labor and shipping soaring, early planning can save you nearly $30,000 on a single show. Remember, in the world of exhibiting, punctuality pays off!
