Stop wasting money on displays that aren’t effective!
Inside this guide, you’ll discover how to avoid the most common – and not always obvious – mistakes in exhibit design. Create a multisensory experience that exceeds expectations and connects with attendees.
Thanks. Multisensory marketing is something that I had forgotten about. An experience has always been much better when all five of my senses were fully engaged. I need to think about the type of sensory experience am am providing my clients. If I only use one method of communication, I will not be as memorable. My goal should probably be to go beyond single sense marketing in order to create a fuller, more vibrant experience for my clients, customers, and prospects–engage their senses more fully.

It’s ironic, isn’t it … we can all think back to multisensory experiences that stick with us, yet so often forget to create those types of experiences for our clients. Simon shared so many wonderful ideas!
