Why Your Custom Trade Show Booth in Germany Needs Better Giveaways

You planned the layout of your booth and rented it. Everything was shipped on time. Finally, you put some branded pens into a bowl, and you figured the giveaway campaign was also done.

This happens all too often at trade shows. A free pen, free keyring, or a candy hurts the brand more than anything.

1. The Cheap Giveaway Expels the Crowd

Generic items like branded key chains and cheap tote bags attract people looking for freebies. They take what’s being handed out to them but never stop for a meaningful conversation.

The booth is crowded. The staff is busy. And after a long day, you review your leads and find yourself with a list of prospects that have no interest in buying anything.

At a custom trade show booth Germany, which demands that brands earn their prospects, a cheap giveaway does worse than nothing. In fact, it sends a very clear message that your brand is cutting corners. This perception won’t go away easily.



2. Prize Games Pose the Same Issue

Spin-the-wheel games and prize draws appear to be logical strategies to add. They attract crowds and generate excitement. 

But consider individuals who join a prize draw. Everyone joins it, whether it’s a purchaser who requires your services, a student who just passes by, or a person attending merely because of the iPad mentioned as a prize. You spend your entire show with individuals who will never be your customers.

The consistent feedback from our exhibition booth contractors Las Vegas has been that booths utilizing prizes in giveaways receive lots of traffic but poor leads. It is a way to disaster when following up with the potential customer.

3. What Really Works

Forget volume; think value. This is how you really turn booth traffic into sales leads:

  • Branded items of high quality – A premium product that people will use keeps your brand top of mind for weeks. A fine notebook, a nice leather card holder, or an excellent piece of luggage will keep your brand in mind during meetings and other business events.
  • Unique digital products – Offer a free audit, industry reports, or invite them to join an exclusive webinar. It will bring only the serious leads to your booth because everyone will have something personal to talk about.
  • Experience-driven offers – Invite them for a private demonstration, a sponsored lunch, or a one-on-one consultation. At AllSpac Group, our exhibition stand contractors Las Vegas can help you design a separate consultation room within your booth.

Conclusion
