Make a Great Impression Affordable

You only have one chance to make a great 1st impression! And that 1st impression is crucial to marketing your company at tradeshows. You may be among many hundreds of exhibitors that potential new buyers will see on the show floor. What will draw them into your booth? Products, people, pre-show marketing, or name recognition? Hopefully all of those factors will help to bring them by, but then you've still got to make that first impression. Visually, that's your exhibit's job.

Make your exhibit attractive and compelling. Keep it open and inviting. Highlight your brand and company image. Show off your products with the best display you can afford. Yes, a tradeshow exhibit can be a major investment for any business. And it should be an integral part of your overall marketing plan. But you can probably afford a nicer display than you realize.

Your exhibit is a capital investment like any other piece of business equipment, so treat it like one. Leverage your exhibit budget by leasing the exhibit you really want to make that critical 1st impression. Not sure how much to budget for your exhibit? Read Budgeting for Tradeshow Exhibitors.

Some Advantages of Leasing Your New Exhibit:

  • 100% Financing
    Banks may require as much as 20% down. Leasing covers 100% of the equipment cost.
  • Flexibility
    Lease payments can be structured into longer terms and lower payments to fit your budget.
  • Tax Advantages
    Payments on leases are pre-tax and fully deductible as operating expenses. This reduces current taxable income.
  • Fixed Payments
    Lease payments are locked in, unlike bank lines of credit with variable rates. This helps with planning for other financial requirements.
  • Open Credit
    Current lines of credit are conserved and kept separate from equipment purchases.
  • Purchase Option
    Leasing provides you with end-of-lease flexibility to purchase, upgrade or return the equipment.

Affordable exhibit leasing is now available for any exhibit priced $5,000 and above. When you're ready to order, we will send you a simple 1-page application, and answer any questions you may have.
