Selling lab products with science, smiles and great graphics

Posted by BCI Staff on Thu, Apr 19, 2012

Are you looking for a little more attention for your lab products?  Strong visual aids and great graphics can dramatically impact the outcome while exhibiting at an event.  The image below is from one of our Biotechnology Vendor Showcase™ events, presents a great example of how using strong visuals can draw researchers to an exhibit space.  Notice the eyes on the poster are positioned at approximate eye level to the viewer.  In addition to this, the company builds on the trust theme with the over-head title.  Knowing your audience always helps.  Take a moment to think about  who might stop to look twice at a young child's face... What would make your target audience stop in their tracks?

Scientific Sales Twitter Feed Helps Vendors Save and Reach New Markets

For those of you who don't know us well, we are a small family owned business with a drive to help those in the research industry get ahead. Like other small family owed businesses, our resources are often more limited than our vision, and like other entrepreneuriall businesses,  that doesn't stop us from trying to make things work better, faster, and easier whenever we can.  In this business, technology is our friend. 

Having said that, I must admit that sometimes the usefulness of new technologies is not immediately apparent. When my sister-in-law first mentioned Twitter at a family gathering a few years ago, I remember thinking " What a colossal waste of time that would be... "Who in the world cares if you are out drinking coffee with a Sally or are watching the latest Alien film?"   The usefulness of having easily, accessible, simpler info did not really strike me until weeks later when I was having a conversation with friends who live on a narrow mountain road that was under construction.  The workmen would tweet when the road was open and when it was blocked, so residents could get in an out with minimal car waiting time.  And if the residents needed to leave they could give the workmen a heads up.  This proved to be very useful.
