Consider the purpose of the modular displays before you buy

Obviously, you are trying to attract customers. Determine if your main focus is new customers or repeat business. Next, decide if you can achieve your goals with a tabletop display or if you need a freestanding modular display or kiosk to accomplish your objectives. Once you decide on your purpose, you can set up your modular display to meet your goal.

I recommend: A company like SD Modular can work with you to create a custom design that best fits your needs. First Trade Show is another company well known for their customized modular displays.

Find expo displays you can take from one trade show to the next

Even though amount and shape of your floor space may vary from one trade show to the next, purchase the prefab trade show booths that you know you can consistently use from one trade show to the next. Remember, the beauty of modular display designs lies in your ability to change pieces as needed.

I recommend: Modular Display Systems offers a wide range of products that can be set up in a linear manner, or in any configuration you like. Smart Exhibits offers products that can convert from a tabletop display to a full-sized wall unit.

Look for lightweight, portable trade show booths

Your modular trade show booth components should be easy to set up and take down. Look for structural materials made from aluminum. Try to find modular display units that come with their own carrying cases to make it even easier to set up your expo displays.

I recommend: Aluminum frames and graphics made from fabric are specialties of Displays2Go. Nomadic Display also offers lightweight modular display solutions for your business.
