To buy or to rent – how to decide the best exhibition stand solution

By | Exhibition Stand Rental | No Comments

Choosing whether you buy your exhibition stand or rent it is an important decision and needs to be based on your exhibition programme and overall marketing strategy.

GForce has considerable knowledge and experience of advising exhibitors on the best solution for their needs. Read our case studies to see how the interplay of consultancy, project management, design, specification and supply brought together the best solution for each featured client.

We have in rental stock a range of portable displays, pop-up displays and modular stand components.

Renting an exhibition stand is often the right decision when:

  • You have two exhibitions at the same time but only one exhibition stand.
  • Renting an exhibition stand or portable display stand is a perfect solution
  • Your budget won’t stretch to buying an exhibition stand but you don’t want to compromise on design or impact – an exhibition stand rental provides the perfect cost-effective solution
  • You have a one-off event or you want to try exhibiting but you don’t want to commit to the purchase of an exhibition stand or portable display system – renting a modular exhibition stand is the cost-effective solution
  • You’re exhibiting internationally – a rental exhibition stand from GForce and installed by one of our global service partners makes international exhibiting easy, trouble-free and cost-effective

“As exhibitors at the Southern and Royal Agricultural Shows, we wanted a professional display system to showcase our property details – but would realistically only use it for 4 days in the year due to our online status. We were reluctant to purchase on this basis but found out we could hire exactly what we needed locally for a very reasonable daily rate. Delivery was free and Greg took the time to demonstrate how quickly and easily the assembly process was, he even visited us at the shows to make sure everything was set up correctly. After the events he called to collect – saving us precious time.

Needless to say we have next years’ dates booked in advance and look forward to seeing which display Greg has lined up for us this time.”

Exhibition graphics are your silent salesperson

Exhibiting is a tough environment. Designing and creating your exhibition stand is only part of the process. Without exhibition graphics your stand is just a shell.

You’ve invested time and money in your brand and corporate identity. Now is the time to make it work hard for you.

Your exhibition graphics need to be considered at the same time as the exhibition stand design. Don’t leave it as an after-thought. Your exhibition graphics are an integral part of your show objectives, marketing strategy, key exhibition message and exhibition stand design.

Visitor communication with you starts 20 feet from your exhibition stand. Visitors look at the stand, your stand staff and your exhibition graphics to help them decide to stop or keep on walking. Graphics are a crucial part of this process.

GForce understands the importance of designing your exhibition graphics at the same time as your stand. Our graphic designers specialise in designing and producing graphics for exhibition stands and portable displays. Our project management experience means we understand the complexities of pulling together all elements of your exhibition stand on time and to budget.
