Trade Show Exhibit Design & Build

Working with the Director of Brand and a local artist, I assisted in the concept, design, build, and project management for an exhibitor booth at the BOMA International Expo.The two main goals of our participation in BOMA were to showcase our brand (especially since BOMA was based in our founding city of Boston that year) and to generate leads for the sales team in the commercial real estate space.

In a crowded trade show, our bright yellow walls, honey giveaway stand, and observation frame of live bees helped us stand apart and attract visitors to the booth. Once there, folks had an opportunity to talk with our sales team, take home honey and print materials, and enter their information to win a giveaway basket of beeswax products. Our efforts brought in over 100 qualified leads for the sales team, which so far has converted to $172,000 in opportunity value.

Bees & Biodiversity Report

Working with copywriters, researchers, illustrators, and beekeepers, I designed a 50-page downloadable and printable research report with the goal of generating leads, establishing brand trust, and communicating our mission to the general audience.

Once it was designed, we launched the report with a landing page that includes a lead generation form for the downloadable, as well as a pop-up on our website, promotional emails to our newsletter audience, and a series of social media posts that all led to the landing page. We also got a few copies printed to showcase at tradeshows and pitch meetings. So far, 1,200 people have downloaded the report and subscribed to our newsletters, about 10% of our current newsletter audience.
