Why Benedict Designs

Benedict Designs has been in the business of designing trade show exhibits for 30 years. We have never had a contract design rejected ( and there have been surprisingly few revisions). We use a combination of industrial problem solving techniques to establish the functions and purpose of the booth and to resolve internal conflicts. This always results in a uniquely successful exhibit based on accurate, detailed information.

We provide senior level marketing assistance and direct design involvement as opposed to exhibit builders who will assign an A.E. who is neither a designer nor an engineer. He will get in line for the Design Director who will pass on what he can remember to a staff designer who will definitely not be expert in structural engineering or carpentry nor will he have been to your show or even knowledgeable about your industry.

1.  Our professional engineering will reduce your field costs. This will save more in field services over the life of the exhibit than its original construction cost. exhibit houses do not benefit from reduced field costs so they are not concerned or they try to increase them to benefit their service division
      .
2. Your job will be personally supervised by a senior level designer/engineer throughout its construction and installation. It will be coordinated through our national network of high-level service contacts. Thirty years of good work builds many friends among service contractors as well as with our clients. These will be at your disposal to make your job easier.

3. The best place to build an exhibit is not in your backyard but where you can get the best price for the best quality work and reduce your shipping costs. The savings are very dramatic. A few airplane tickets to somewhere for a preview are trivial in comparison to the savings. A recent example is a 30x30 custom exhibit for an electronics company - the price from one of the high profile, national exhibit companies was $152,000. The other prices from less prestigious shops that do excellent work were : $125,000 ; $110,000 ; and $90,000. All are well-established companies with a long history of doing quality work. The typical savings in construction costs for all projects is 40% and that comes with superior design and service and dramatically increases your show results.
  
4. This is an expensive marketing tool. - It should be done by an expert who is on your side! It will cost less and be much more successful.
