"I think you did a great job on the video. The story flow was well done and the essential
elements of the strategic plan were communicated well. As for me, I hope to keep my day job
because a TV career looks doubtful." – President and CEO,
a major U.S. equipment manufacturer
I've done outdoor advertising in many markets such as Las Vegas, Anaheim, Munich, Lancaster PA and elsewhere.
I don't just buy a billboard or sign, I check traffic flows, vehicle counts, neighborhood demographics, nighttime
lighting – even sun angles!
I also sleuth around and learn if your sign neighbors are reputable, because if not, your brand's reputation will diminish fast.
Integrate eye-catching outdoor ads into your overall
marketing strategy!
Sometimes duty calls overseas. It's not just a trade event, it's an opportunity to sell in new markets. Our efforts included signage and literature in local language, translation of technical information and a pre-event analysis of specifiers coming to the show.
On-shore and off-shore: custom fabrications, large complex exhibit stands, video walls, and staging and rigging. That's show business!

Don't Forget the Video!
Lots and lots of video: whether for booths, stand-alone kiosks, email or digital marketing, or for your sales staff or product support.

Event and Trade Show Strategy: Be Cost-Effective and Smart!
Do you have a well-defined, pre-show strategy in place to handle the trade media, your visitors, sales staff and post-show lead followup?
If not, your total exhibit plan needs to be re-vamped so your events budget becomes an investment – not an expense.
We've planned and managed events, exhibits, conferences and major product launches throughout the U.S. – at high-profile venues in Anaheim, Scottsdale, Las Vegas, Chicago, Orlando and more. Directing the multi-day freight, logistics and custom Installation & Dismantle (I&D) of exhibits up to 65,000 sq. ft (6,039 m2).
In places as diverse as Mexico, Germany, Hungary, Brazil, Singapore and China. More than 250 times. For more than 55,000 guests at once. While managing individual event budgets ranging up to four million dollars.
Our savvy hands-on experience encompasses ordering and planning on-site show services, working alongside the proud and skilled trade members of the Teamsters (IBT), Operating Engineers (IUOE), International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and those
fearless stagehands and riggers of IATSE. The same with creative
teams such as Convention AV Services and major exhibit houses
like Freeman, Kingsmen LTD and my good friends at GES.
Today, my partners and I can create portable displays, touch-screen custom interactive kiosks, backwalls and free-standing displays using everything from bamboo sticks to innovative, inexpensive, even lightweight dye-sublimated graphics.
The Creative Department? Yeah, we've got one of those
It took more than "One Small Step" to plan and host a private cocktail party with legendary Astronaut Neil Armstrong as the keynote speaker for 800 sales executives and guests in 22,000 sq. ft. of party space. It required extensive contract negotiations, production of a custom video introduction package and much more at Studio 54 in Las Vegas.
A new China sales office needed launched in Shanghai. I utilized 600+ media outlets for press exposure. My overall plan included a new Chinese portal for corporate's web site, an in-country marketing partnership to get appointments for our sales staff, and major trade show participation (with Chinese media exposure, signage and literature).
A new product launch was needed for a major national trade show. Orlando's Orange County Convention Center became home to the Florida State Citrus Queen handing out crates of fresh oranges, while guests enjoyed a relaxing custom Tiki Bar – amid a grove of live
orange trees. This 'Big Orange Rollout' on green AstroTurf was perfect to bring attention to several new models of big orange aerial lifts!
A custom-tailored "Invitation Only" product launch party was hosted at an upside-down science center. Welcoming our VIP guests were mimes, standing on their heads, and showing off an upside-down product - to tout the fact this new product was about to turn the industry 'upside-down!' The event featured live feeds pumping new product videos throughout the three-floor complex. The event gave senior staff the opportunity to really deliver a big bang for the buck!
