Multi-media / Presentation:
Product Display
•Plan Product Display:The larger the new product introduced,the longer lead time to order the product for display at a trade show
•Plan display expenses:-Cost of displaying versus selling-Custom mounting expense -Set-up and dismantle expense-Shipping expense to and from show-Drayage expense on the show floor-Booth staffing expense for demo
Plan Product Display and Related Expenses
What can you do when the new product is not available for display?
Use of a model-Can be easily shipped to multiple shows-Construction cost spread over events-Less expensive than shipping large item-Hidden product attributes can be shown-Easy to gather around at shows
Large equipment-Expensive to ship-Expensive to set-up -Takes up too much floor space-Difficult to have 1 to spare for shows-Can be damaged in shipment, I&D
