Proper Partnership: Tips For The Business Registration and Operation

When my best friend approached me with this new business opportunity, I decided that it might be fun to work together as partners. What I didn't realize was how complex partnerships could be. Not only was there the daily task distribution and conversations, there was a lot of paperwork to be filed for the business to be legal, and partnerships need to be registered specifically. I created this blog afterward to help illustrate the process and offer tips for others who are considering their own business. If you're looking to be an entrepreneur or start a partnership, I hope the posts here help you get things started.

Tips For Making Your Next Trade Show Booth Amazing

If you are a business owner looking to grow your sales, then it's vital you have a presence at your industry's yearly trade show. Not only do you need a booth that's strategically located at the venue, but you also need to draw people in so your sales representatives can wow them with their presentations.

If you have been struggling to create trade show booths that bring in buyers, then these tips will help:

Tip: You Must Use Cutting-Edge Displays 

Gone are the days when you could attend a trade show with tables and some large signage as the backdrop for your product displays. Today, buyers expect to see multi-media displays, 360-degree videos, and virtual reality experiences. If your booth lacks the luster of others, then your sales force will struggle to bring in new business.

Additionally, if your business will have a booth at a robotics or virtual reality type of trade show, then your multimedia experience absolutely must be cutting-edge if you want to stand out from the pack.

The best displays have a strong impact, give an amazing first impression, and bring people in because of:

  • the emotions they evoke
  • their curiosity
  • their imagination

If your multi-media displays don't tug at emotions, inspire the imagination, or spark curiosity, then you need to keep working on them until they do.

Tip: Use Scent Marketing to Give Your Booth a Subliminal Edge

Just as essential oils are all the rage for home use, so too are they finding their way onto the trade show scene. There are certain scents people's noses find pleasing, and you can easily use them to give your booth a subliminal edge.

Some of the best scents to draw people in include:

  • lavender
  • chamomile
  • leather
  • popcorn
  • baked goods

In addition, you can also use a scent related to the products you sell. For example, if you sell swimwear, then a scent that smells like coconut suntan lotion works really well. Just the scent alone brings customers back to their last beach vacation or the day they spent with their kids at the local lake.

Tip: Not Everything in Your Booth Has to Be Innovative

Finally, it's important to mention that trade show attendees are frequently worn out from walking on hard trade show venue concrete floors all day. All they really want to do is sit down and recharge their phones.

You can meet this need by creating a lounge area where your potential future customers can do just that. Ultimately, a comfy chair and a charging station are all you need to give you more customers for your sales folks to pitch.
