Trade Show Booth Ideas That Turn Interest Into Meaningful Engagement
Exponents handles custom trade show booth design for exhibitors across the USA. As your trade show booth designer, builder, manufacturer, and partner – we offer over 700+ exhibit design ideas that balance creativity with practical function. Work with a team that brings decades of hands-on experience in delivering custom designed, turnkey booths across the USA.
Depending on the show location, all booth manufacturing and production is handled in-house, assembled at our strategically located facilities in San Diego, Orlando, Las Vegas, and Dallas. This gives us complete control over quality, timelines, and execution.
Our exhibit design process is straightforward: we start with a discovery call, move into concept development and deliver a no-obligation design proposal, usually in 2-3 working days. Post your review and approval, we initiate graphics production, fabrication followed by a pre-show trial run, prior shipping to the venue/advanced warehouse.
Our Trade Show Booth Design Process: Brief to Build
Step 1: Briefing
Every project starts with a discovery call. We define the exhibitor’s goal, whether it is brand visibility, product launches, or customer conversations and work accordingly.
Step 2: Designing & Estimate
After the brief, we send a 3D design proposal with a quote.Once approved, it becomes an itemized fixed-price contract covering design, build, shipping, and installation.
Step 3: Graphics Production
Once the design is approved, graphics production and organizer coordination begin. Booth components are created or ordered in parallel to keep the timeline moving.
Step 4: Pre-show Trial Run
The booth is fully assembled at our warehouse before shipping. Exhibitors can review it in person or through photos and videos. Nothing ships without approval.
Step 5: Shipping
After sign-off, the booth is shipped to the venue or advance warehouse. We manage freight, organizer coordination, and checkpoint updates.
Step 6: Installation & Dismantle
Our on-site crew installs the booth and hands it over show-ready. After the event, we dismantle, pack, and return everything to the warehouse.

From the very beginning, working with “Jenny from the block” on the sales side was seamless. Clara’s leadership on the project management side was equally impressive. The booth itself was exceptional. The design was so strong that we moved forward with your mockups with confidence, and the final result exceeded expectations. Many people said we by far had the best booth! What truly set your team apart was the execution at every step. Your team operated like a well-oiled machine, with professionalism and efficiency at every step. I cannot thank you enough for delivering such a high-quality experience.

I would like to express my gratitude for your support during the event. We had a great experience working with the Exponents team. The entire process towards executing the project was aimed at giving us the desired outcome, which made it worthwhile. Though we had a few hiccups, I guess this approach led to a successful execution of the project. We ultimately had a great show!
