Exhibitions are a waste of time?

Like most middle aged grumpy men I hate shopping. So on those very rare occasions when my wife manages to drag me out to purchase an item that needs a “joint decision”, I want to make it quick and easy. I’m very busy so I haven’t got the time or patience to go into shop after shop looking at televisions or laptops. I want to speak to an expert who knows the products inside out, someone who understands my requirement and somebody who can explain the options available to help me make my purchasing decisions.

But how often do we get the customer service, sales skills and product knowledge we deserve in the high street?

Isn’t it time you had a Double Decker Exhibition Stand?

Many of our clients need a specific area within their exhibition stand to entertain visitors or have private meetings away from the busy exhibition floor where product demonstrations and general enquiries are taking place. One of the ways of doing this is by adding additional floor levels.

Double Decker or even Triple Decker exhibition stands can increase floor space dramatically. There are obviously budget implications as well as numerous technical issues to over come; in fact some exhibition venues or show organisers won’t even allow this type of exhibition design.

The smarter way to improved efficiency and better value

At the recent 2011 ESSA (Exhibition Stand Suppliers Association) G50+ conference, keynote speaker, Tony Wallis of Toyota Material Handling UK, delighted delegates with his presentation of business practices (as defined by the Toyota Production System), as part of a continuous improvement programme.

The inspirational presentation struck an important chord with long time ESSA member, Peter Bowen, CEO of exhibition specialists Access Displays. Peter explains, “The information coming across formalised some of the ideas we were trying to implement at Access Displays and I felt that we needed to know more.”
Access Displays expanded its relationship with Toyota, subsequently, when Production Director, Emma Thatcher, accepted a place at a TPS master class.

Lindt choose Access Displays Ltd as their exhibition stand contractor

Case Study – Lindt

Client : Lindt & Sprungli UK

First Show : P & H Pro Retail – 9^th May, Telford International Centre

Space : 4m x 3m

Background :

In March 2011, Access Displays received an enquiry, on its web site, from Andrew Lightowler, Lindt’s Trade Sector Manager. The enquiry was in relation to two exhibitions that the company was attending. Following receipt of a detailed brief, an initial meeting was set up to pitch some basic concepts and to investigate further, the balance between Lindt, the corporate brand and Lindt, the product, that can often end up in the corner shop.

Access Displays Ltd donate office equipment to 1244 Squadron (Swindon) ATC

1244 Squadron ATC is based in Swindon and part funded by its own charity work. They raise their own funds to pay for their equipment such as their mini bus and activity kits and also raise money for several local charities through assisting local organisations with events and sponsored activities.

For a few years the squadron has been running on 2 very old computers and has considered taking components out of 4 older PC’s in an attempt to create another usable computer.

The computers donated by Access Displays Ltd include 4 desktop computers and 2 office printers. This donation will enable the Commanding Officer to have his own computer for the first time in the squadrons history. The remaining computers will allow the cadets to create a corporate communications section while the younger personnel can help create the squadron website, write newsletters and create posters/banners to help raise future funds. The photocopier and printer will be incredibly useful for this.
