How to Optimize a Small Exhibit Booth
Don’t let a tiny booth at a trade show convince you that your display can’t have a powerful presence. To take full advantage of a small booth, companies must think strategically about their small space and utilize every nook and cranny. All the while, they must ensure that their booth’s appearance follows the current aesthetic trends of appearing accessible, minimal, and roomy.
