Thompson/Kerr Displays is proud to present the fourth in a series of informative article summaries from Nomadic Displays, makers of portable trade show displays.

"Techniques For Creating Show-Stopping Graphics" provides 10 tips about how eye-catching graphic displays create interest, focus attention and tell visitors about your product or service.

With just three to five seconds to grab a visitors attention, graphics should communicate who you are, what you do and how customers can benefit.

The article also discusses:

  • Consider what your show goals are and how to convey them graphically
  • Project the right image. This will dictate your choices in typefaces, artwork, color, etc.
  • Design your graphics to your target audience. Focus on customer benefits
  • Pull in your audience with graphics coupled with other special effects; lights and movement attract attention
  • Things to avoid in your graphic designs, including cliches and overused metaphors, and periods at the end of headlines as they stop the reader from reading any further
  • And more!
