All designers are different and will charge differently for their products.  It is heavily advised to compare exhibition stand designers to ensure that you can get the best deal.

What Is The Right Exhibition Stand Designer To Use

Choosing the right exhibition stand designer is essential, but there has to be criteria to consider. Price is important, but there are other things that are equally if not more important than being price focused:

  • Experience – do they know your industry, your clients and your market
  • Location – are they local to you, can you visit them to chat through ideas
  • Success – what have they designed before, how successful have they been
  • Price – are they competitive as we all have budgets to work to and saving money is the name of the game

These tend to be the reasons that most companies would want to work with a stand designer (give or take) but you may have additional criteria to selecting the right exhibition designer to work with.  There are lots of them out there, so the best thing to do is to compare quotes and see who looks right for the job (based on the full package they can offer).
