Recorded Version of the Exhibit Design Search Webinar

June 27th, 2014 Mel White COMMENTS

Capture_EDSTwice a year, we conduct an Exhibit Design Search webinar. The title always changes, but it’s always a “Tips, Tricks and Techniques” session on how to use EDS more effectively. Typically, I don’t record it because, well, I forget. I’d love to give you a better excuse, but I can’t. This time I remembered.

The session is 45 minutes, about normal for a webinar. If you struggle with how to navigate EDS like a rock star, then I would suggest watching it. You may already be the Mick Jagger of EDS. Who am I to judge. Me? I’ve dominated the EDS rock and roll charts for eight straight years, and I still uncover lotsa new stuff each time.

The webinar is book-ended with a slide show. The first half is a quick overview of EDS.  The second half (which everyone seems to love) summarizes the differences between all the Classic Exhibits Hybrid lines. If you have ever struggled to explain what makes a “Sacagawea” different from a “Magellan,” then this is the perfect cheat sheet of all cheat sheets.

The webinar is first (in YouTube). The slide show is below that (in Slideshare). Share your thoughts, good or bad, in the comments.

There are no cats, no one gets hurt, and there are no celebrities. Sorry.

RECENT Exhibit Design Search Updates (see the GIFs)

Your Branded Exhibit Design Search

Nearly every month, we push functional or visual changes to your branded Exhibit Design Search website. Some you may notice. Some you may not.

Do you want to know a secret? I’m a obsessed with EDS (OK, that may be the world’s worst kept secret). And I force Tony, Glenna, and everyone else at Classic Exhibits to share that obsession. If only there was a 10 step program for an EDS addict?

It’s been a while since we blogged about EDS updates. Here are the major changes.

  1. My Gallery.
    • "" style="width: 300px;"

      My Gallery

      Faster: Tony revised the code so clicking on “Add to My Gallery” is faster.

    • Cooler: There’s now a URL option. This one is a little hard to explain until you try it, but copy the URL in the “Send My Selections” tab. Send it in a normal email. When the recipient receives it, it will add the kits to their My Gallery. Perfect for building a gallery between two, three, or 14,561 people.
    • Try It — http://www.classicexhibits.com/trade-show-exhibit-design-search/my-gallery/view/6012300/
    • Smarter: You can now send Trade Show Tips via the My Gallery tool.
  2. Product Gallery Headers. We’ve made them much prettier. Larger graphics and a cleaner layout. See Island Designs for example.
  3. Side Menu. On sites with a side menu, there is now a context aware menu for sizes. The Visionary Designs gallery shows it well.
  4. Descriptive Images. This one is brand spanking new. Soon there will be descriptive images showing “Backlighting,” “Reconfigures,” “Portable,” etc. Go to the Tablet Kiosk/Stand gallery where you’ll see the Apple and Windows logos on the thumbnails.
  5. Price Slider. Now you can choose your Low and High when search for prices. Start with the Advanced Search option.

Price Slider

I’m planning an Exhibit Design Search Tips and Tricks webinar this summer to cover this and other new features. Watch for the email in June.

We Need Your Help with a Testimonial

October 22nd, 2013 Mel White 7 COMMENTS

We need your help. And it will only take a few minutes.

Every year at EDPA ACCESS, the annual conference and showcase, there’s an award program. One of those awards is the EDDIE Award, the only one open to submissions from both EDPA members and non-members.

EDPA EDDIE AWARD 

“The EDDIE Award is an award judged solely on the self-promotion of your company not on the promotion of a client.”

Here’s where you can help. We plan to submit Exhibit Design Search (EDS) for the award. We’ve written the submission but would like to enhance it with your testimonials. If you believe, as we do, that Exhibit Design Search has benefited your company and benefited Classic Exhibits, we would love to include your heartfelt testimonial. Nothing long . . . 3-4 sentences would be terrific.

Now, if you read the guidelines above, EDS may not at first glance seem to fit. After all, Classic Exhibits brands EDS for each distributor. You’re our client and it’s for your benefit. But let’s not kid ourselves. We brand it for our benefit as well, since we want your business to flow our direction. So, while it may not be “self-promotion” in the “See Me, See Me” sense, it’s still self-promotion.

If you are not shy, use the Comments section of the blog. If you are shy, send your testimonial to Mel White (mel@classicexhibits.com) — October 31 deadline. We have to submit it by Nov. 4.

Thank you very much! We sincerely appreciate it.

Trade Show Displays Under $3K to $24K

August 19th, 2013 Mel White COMMENTS

When you shop for a car, you know your budget. You’ll look at other models, some higher, some lower, just to see the differences. While we may all want seat warmers or blind spot indicators, our budgets don’t always allow for those extras. Nevertheless, you still want to get the best value, the highest quality, and the most options for your money.

The 11 page “Displays Under . . . .“ brochure makes it easy to take a quick tour of the display parking lot. The displays are arranged in groups starting under $3000 and stair step to groups under $24,000. Take a moment to try it. We hope you’ll discover that it’s a convenient tool to compare the differences between popular trade show displays. From there, you can explore details in Exhibit Design Search.

Download the 11-page brochure by clicking on the image below.
