trade show banner stands, custom retractable banners for Hi Rel Laboratories in Spokane, designed by Signs for Success

Retractable banner stands used as a trade show backdrop

Retractable trade show banner stands are a valuable trade show tool both for their portability and versatility in set up options.  One of our recent projects was for 4 retractable banner stands that came together to make a stunning trade show backdrop for Hi-Rel Laboratories.

Each banner stand comes with the retractable base, full color graphic print, and adjustable support pole that holds the banner open up to 92” high.  Trade show banner stands also come with a travel bag for easy transport and set up.

“The display you created for us was one of the most eye-catching at the show; thank you!” Hi-Rel vice president Roger Devaney said.  Hi-Rel takes photos of failed electrical components and magnifies them 20x or more to troubleshoot electrical failures.  Signs for Success has been doing signage for Hi-Rel for the past 10+ years.  For these trade show banners, we did the design and layout, using his photos.  Then the banners were printed on super smooth banner material and installed on retractable banner stands.

Make an impression at your next trade show with retractable banner stands.  Not only are they easy to transport and set up, but they offer versatile set up options as well.

retractable banner stands can be used over and over again, trade show banner stands

Use trade show banner stands at different events throughout the year

Use trade show banner stands to:

  • Expand the viewing area on either side of your trade show booth
  • Attract interest by placing near the walkway or aisle
  • Create a main backdrop for your booth by placing several in a row

You can even continue to use your retractable banner stands after the trade show in a showroom, office, or at a fundraiser or other special event.

Signs for Success is a locally owned family business in Spokane, and we strive for excellent customer service, perfect color, and quick turnaround on every project.  Our large production facility allows us to design, print and install everything in-house.  Get quality service and a quick turnaround on trade show banner stands; contact us for a free quote today!

Investing in Trade show Displays, especially if you only plan to exhibit once or twice a year, can seem like a costly and unnecessary expense.  If you’ve looked into custom tradeshow displays, you know they can easily run up to thousands of dollars.  That’s fine for larger companies or those who plan on exhibiting several times every year and in different parts of the country.  For those on a smaller budget, we rent trade show displays with custom printed graphics.  You get the professional look you need for shows, and you can keep the custom graphics for later and rent the display just when you need it.

You will need an engaging area to attract visitors and have meaningful conversations with potential clients.  If you have a limited budget, renting display equipment is a much better alternative to skimping on visual impact.  In addition, we’ll make sure your display is in good working condition.  Don’t worry about missing parts or light bulbs blowing out at the last minute.  Your tradeshow display will always be where you expect it to be and in the condition you would expect it to be in for your big event.

Some examples of rentable tradeshow equipment are the Showmax Prezenta Tabletop Display and the Energy Curve Pop Up Display (pictured above).  Compared with just over $1000, you can rent the Showmax Prezenta for $75 per business day, or over one weekend.  The Showmax display comes in a hard case with wheels that folds out to a 74” x 36” display with a header.  It has a Velcro-ready fabric interior that makes setup a breeze.  Down the line, you can update one or just a few elements of your display without replacing all of your graphics.  Two halogen lights above bring clarity as well as professionalism to your display.

Contractors starting up a new business, or just trying to revamp an existing one, should consider their brand positioning.  Whether the business is multi-tier or just a one-person contractor, building a brand goes hand in hand with gaining customers and building a local customer base.

Contractors can find their brand identity by cueing in on anything that defines their company, including products, services, warranties, guarantees, customer service, and ideals.  What can your business offer that others in the area cannot?  What is the customer perception on your product or service?  Once you’ve identified your branding strategy, you’re ready to market it.

There are many ways to advertise your business, but the key is to keep branding consistent no matter what type of marketing or signage you choose to use.  Just one slogan rather than several and the same colors and logos throughout is a must.  These are the three most essential contractor advertising ideas we recommend:

  1. Promotional Products

Contractor promotional products keep advertising for as long as they are useful, which means up to years of promotion.  Nifty items like pens, notepads, Nalgene water bottles, and Frisbees are just a few examples of promotional products customers will come back to again and again.

Mr. Rooter Plumbing’s clever toilet paper promotional item will not be soon forgotten by its users.

In addition to fun and creative promo items that might be specific to your industry, for any type of contractor, we recommend refrigerator magnets.  Whenever you service someone’s home, before you leave, stick your magnet on their fridge with a couple of business cards and a brochure listing all your services.  They’ll know just who to call next time, and they’ll have quick access to your number if they want to recommend you to someone else. Your Signs for Success account representative can help you with selection and pricing or you can browse anytime at our Promotional Products Store.

  1. Professional Business Cards

Business cards are like promotional products – they are the traditional leave-behind tool that many customers have come to expect.  Many people keep them on hand for future reference.  Make your card easily recognizable by keeping colors and graphics consistent with your contractor business branding.  Give a few cards to happy customers so they can pass them on.

  1. Vehicle Wraps

Dodge Ram Vinyl graphics

Prime Pest Control Truck Graphics

You’ve invested in service vehicles, now use them!  A truck wrap for your work truck(s) or van fleet wraps are a great use of space you already own.  All that is required is a one-time investment for a wrap that will last 5-7 years.  According to research, just the fact that your signs are on your vehicle rather than a board or post in the ground generates more interest and recall rate among viewers, and vehicle wraps can generate up to 70,000 impressions per day!  To top off your truck wrap or van wrap, consider business card holders that can be directly attached to either side of the vehicle.  Potential customers can lift the top and take a business card with them.

These 3 contractor advertising ideas will work together to create a positive lasting impression with your target audience.  Let us help you create promotional items, business cards, and vehicle wraps to build your brand and your customer base.  Signs for Success is a locally owned family business in Spokane, and we strive for excellent customer service, perfect color, and quick turnaround on every project.  Our large production facility allows us to design, print and install everything in-house.  Get quality service and a quick turnaround on your contractor signs; contact us for a free quote today!

Foam Board Printing is popular for creating anything from custom posters to unique framed wall art.  Foam board is made with a polystyrene foam core and a smooth white paper backing on either side.  We carry 4’ x 8’ sheets of foam board that can be custom cut to any dimensions or shape.  For example, we can cut out a custom standee whether you need a tabletop display or a life sized display.  For extra-large prints, we can print and install several foam board sheets for a seamless wall display.

This kiosk is decorated with full sized animal standee cutouts that are free standing as well as a folding informational "poster" standee on the table, foam board printing

Animal Shelter standees and table top display

Foam board printing is cost-effective, and the result is a professional, vibrant, full color image for your custom indoor display.

Foam board can be used for temporary signs, seasonal signs, or permanent indoor signs.  The outer paper covering may bend or dent with force, so with permanent displays and artwork, it’s best to either frame them or place them high up out of the way of traffic and accidental bumps.  For temporary signs and prints, foam board printing is great for posters, trade show displays, retail signs, POP signs, window displays, and more!

A few alternatives to foam board printing are:

  • Corrugated Plastic Signs and Standees
  • Paper Posters and Sign Inserts
  • Banner Stands
  • Acrylic Lobby Signs

No matter what your project is, we have a great sign solution for you.  Our experienced, in-house design team will work with you on design, materials and installation methods to make sure you are getting exactly the sign or display you are envisioning.

Foam Core Posters vs. Paper Posters

/in , , , , , /by

Washington Policy Center table posters

Foam Core Posters are a great alternative to paper posters.  Foam board material is lightweight and rigid, and it provides a number of different display options.  For example, foam core posters can be mounted using hanging hardware, stud mounted to a wall, framed, or placed in a stand.  Foam board can be scored and folded.  We can also cut foam board into a custom shape to make unique hanging signs, standees and displays.

The main difference between foam core posters and traditional paper posters is that foam board is rigid.  Over time, paper posters may bend, curl, or tear.  Foam core is lightweight and provides a beautiful matte finish, but most importantly, it is a substantial material that does especially well as a hanging sign or tabletop display.

Foam core posters are great for:

  • Trade show displays
  • Indoor signs
  • Sign display stands
  • POP signs
  • Posters
  • Hanging signs, and more!

YMCA foam core poster for holding brochures

Your artwork is printed directly to the foam board.  Digital printing provides high quality prints with vibrant color, and the smooth matte finish enhances our full color printing.  Foam core posters look professional and polished with or without a frame or decorative mounting hardware.  They can be used in place of a paper poster for a more substantial and longer-lasting sign or hanging display.  Or you can go all out and create a permanent indoor sign display with decorative mounts.  This foam core poster was designed to hold brochures for YMCA.  Our in-house designers can help you create your custom foam core posters and choose a display system that works for you.

With a custom table throw, tablecloth, popup display, and retractable banner stand, Dynamic Decks Spokane is ready for any size trade show or event, trade show table covers

Dynamic Decks trade show display, table cover and retractable banner stand.

We encourage businesses to go all out with their trade show booths when they can, and for good reason – well-designed trade show graphics make a huge statement.  Just like this booth we recently did for Dynamic Decks in Spokane, the PopUp display with matching table throw and retractable banner stand come together to create an amazing look that gives a great first impression.

The design and layout were done by Signs for Success designer Vanessa Bogensberger.  Each product in this three-part tradeshow display encompasses the same clean design.  This is important because not only does it provide the visual impact you want at a tradeshow, but it also gets your message across clearly without a lot of different text, patterns or colors to confuse and distract a viewer.

“The whole effect was awesome, and Matt really loved it,” Vanessa said of the trade show table covers, display and banner.

The 6 ft. EZ Tube Tabletop Display has a slim profile of about 3 inches.  With a lightweight aluminum frame and seamless fabric graphic that stretches over the frame, it’s simple to set up and has a great streamlined look.  A 6 ft. three-sided custom table throw beneath the tabletop display gives the effect of a full free standing booth.  Trade show table covers come in 6-foot or 8-foot lengths, and can be printed with one or two colors (for a simple logo or company name), or in full color to really maximize the visual impact.

The retractable banner stand with a digitally printed super smooth banner completes the look.  It also provides an opportunity to give a little more information.  Dynamic Decks chose to add a single testimonial – a great use of the extra space without overwhelming the viewer with text.

With the design in place, it’s easy to brand other items like signs, brochures, and vehicle wraps for a cohesive look.  Owner of Dynamic Decks Matt looks forward to doing a truck wrap next!  Signs for Success is a locally owned family business in Spokane, and we strive for excellent customer service, perfect color, and quick turnaround on every project.  Our large production facility allows us to design, print and install everything in-house.  Get quality service and a quick turnaround on trade show table covers and other trade show graphics; contact us for a free quote today!

Fabric Banners offer a Charming Twist to the Vinyl Banner Tradition

Canvas banners on pop-up banner stands

When I think “banner,” shiny white plastic material usually comes to mind, but there are actually many materials, including fabrics, that we print on that can be used in lieu of traditional vinyl banner material.  When Ambitions Disability Support Services described the type of banner they were looking for, we knew fabric banners would be just right for their upcoming event.

“This is a unique job because we are using canvas instead of banner material or tyvek. The customer wanted a richer feel to the final product,” Signs for Success designer Will Oakley said.

The weight and warmth of the Picasso canvas fabric gives just the richness the customer was looking for.  When finished, it looks more like artwork than a banner.  In most cases, we use vinyl banner material with banner stands, but in reality, there are a variety of materials we can print on for use with banner stands.  Linen, pack cloth and poplin are a few other popular fabrics we print on.

You can use banner material, anti-curl banner, tyvek, or even canvas for banner stands like these, easily change your banner for new event or promotion

Canvas banners on grasshopper stands

The customer also wanted to make sure we could print color to the edge.  We did print to the edge, then finished the edges with banner tape.  Finally, grommets were placed in all four corners of the banner for easy hanging on grasshopper banner stands. One thing we love about banner stands is that you can change out your message for different events easily by switching out the banner.  The stands themselves are durable and will withstand several years of use.  Banner stands are designed to be easily transportable – they’re lightweight, and they fold down neatly for storage or travel.  They expand out when you need to display your banner and are accommodating for a range of banner sizes.

These canvas fabric banners were used at a business conference in Tahoe, and Ambitions will be able to use them at many future conferences and promotional events as well.  For a unique and classy look, try using fabric banners for tradeshows, office banners, restaurant banners, parade banners, and more.  Signs for Success is a locally owned family business in Spokane, and we strive for excellent customer service, perfect color, and quick turnaround on every project.  Our large production facility allows us to design, print and install everything in-house.  Get quality service and a quick turnaround on fabric banners; contact us for a free quote today!

6 Easily Transportable Trade Show Displays Spokane

EQ1 Wireless tradeshow display

When you’re representing your company on the go, you don’t want to worry about details, especially when traveling to an out-of-state event.  Here are some easily transportable—yet still custom—tradeshow display options:

  1. The Hopup Trade show Booth is a Tension Fabric Display.  Your custom graphics are printed on fabric that pulls tightly around the display, creating a custom backdrop.  This is one of the most dynamic and popular large format graphics displaysdue to its maximum impact with minimal effort.  Hopup Tension Fabric Displays come in a variety of sizes—straight or curved, table-top or full height.  The extruded aluminum frame is lightweight and highly portable, and they pack away as easy as they set up!  Backlighting kits can be purchased separately, and when installed, they literally make your display glow.
  2. The Popup Display is similar to the Hopup in that the lightweight metal frame expands and contracts quickly and easily for easy setup and take-down.  The difference is that the Popup uses magnetic graphics.  We print graphics onto a thin flexible plastic called Styrene, then add magnetic tape to the back that clings to the display.  Overhead lighting illuminates your graphics, and case-to-counter conversion kits and graphics add to the professional look.

The EQ1 display (above) utilizes the curved shape to add graphics -their logo and website – to the sides as well as the main front image.  When it’s time to change the look, you can keep the Popup frame and just update the graphics.  Even though we’ve modified our look or tweaked the verbiage in our own graphics, we’ve been using the same Popup Curve frame for tradeshows and other events for many years.

  1. Folding Displays–Briefcase style tabletop displays are a great choice for promotions on the go.  These tabletop displays have a rigid, thermo formed ABS exterior and a black, Velcro compatible fabric interior.  We print custom graphics on Styrene or PosPro then add Velcro tabs to the back for easy set up and/or changes.  Custom headers increase the visual space, and are easily stowed inside the display case during off seasons or for travel.
  2. Trade Shows are more fun and your booth is more attractive with popup display for background, Signs for Success can help now with your event signage needs

    Spokane Regional Solid Waste System display with retractable banner stands and printed table cover

    Printed Table Skirts– A full color logo table skirt is the perfect complement to your custom tradeshow display.  Full graphics, printed from edge to edge, will make your booth stand out from the rest.  The printed table throw is washable and sized to fit standard 6-ft or 8-ft tables.  When it’s this easy, why not bring together the entire look with a matching table throw?

  3. Retractable Banner Stands – A retractable display is similar to a pop-up but with even more portability. Retractable banners are typically made with a smooth-edged banner material that rolls down into a lightweight aluminum case.  To set up, simply pull the banner out and lock it in place with the telescopic pole.  This marketing tool can survive several marketing events with ease.
  4. Grasshopper Banner Stands are another way to display banners on the go.  The Grasshopper adjustable banner standis made of sturdy aluminum construction. The stand has a gear mechanism that swings high quality graphite poles out on the left and right side of the banner to form an X shape.  It is height and width adjustable, and it has 4 hooks on each end of the X shape of the stand for very easy set up and take-down.  Switching out graphics for different events is a breeze since the stand is stored separately from the banner.

We’ve been to countless tradeshows ourselves, and we’ve seen what works and what doesn’t.  We can recommend each one of these highly portable and simple-to-set-up displays.  They truly give the best look with the least amount of effort!  Signs for Success is a locally owned family business in Spokane, and we strive for excellent customer service, perfect color, and quick turnaround on every project.  Our large production facility allows us to design, print and install everything in-house.  Get quality service and a quick turnaround on trade show displays Spokane; contact us for a free quote today!
