This Thanksgiving, don’t miss the opportunity to thank the ‘angels’ of your life. They can be your parents, children, spouse, or friends for always being there to lend you support whenever you needed them the most. Or, they can be your employees who continuously work hard for your company.

For your family and close friends, invite them to a delicious meal at your home or somewhere out. You can also gift them nice, affordable presents that truly shows your appreciation for them. For your employees, you can show your appreciation by organizing an awards banquet at the office.
Here are some inexpensive award and gift ideas for Thanksgiving:

Gifts for Relatives or Friends
Take time to think of a sentimental gift for your family and friends, or you can go with timeless gifts like wine. Gifting wine bottles has never been out of fashion. The best part is you can gift wine on any occasion. A nice bottle of wine to your parents, spouse, or friends is the best way to raise a toast for the love and support they unconditionally extend to you. You can also gift wine accessories or a wine chiller.

HOW VIRTUAL EVENTS CAN HAVE THAT WOW FACTOR

RD Whitney is Co-Founder and Director of the Virtual Events Institute.
The year 2020 has turned the world of virtual events upside down. How can you make connections when you can’t bring people together? With traditional events like fundraisers, workshops and conferences on hold for the foreseeable future, it’s time to get creative.
With so many of us working from home, constant Zoom meetings are the reality. Anyone who’s been on video chats all day long knows that they can get boring and repetitive. But if you can find a way to capture your audience’s attention, and to keep them engaged throughout an event, interactive online events are possible.
The world of community building has gone through changes that are here to stay. Organizations like Virtual Events Institute recognize the potential here and are helping professionals learn about the kind of innovation that’s possible. And companies like Trellis are also tapping into the online market, providing clients with an all-in-one customizable platform and guidance on how to host engaging and successful online fundraisers.
So how can you make your online events captivating and memorable? Try adding an unconventional element. One idea is to have a virtual class of some kind during online meetings and events, as an engaging way to liven up the experience. You could bring a professional to the event to lead a fun activity, like a chef, sommelier or bartender.
For example, ChefTorial enables you, your colleagues, clients or network to prepare meals with a professional chef. Bringing the food and beverage experience online, the chef coaches you while you work from what ChefTorial calls “your Zoom Table.”
Here are some takeaways on how to strategize your virtual event approach:
Make it a party.
The ultimate measure to any in-person event is the quality of the entertainment. An exhibitor who has a sub-par sales effort can still justify the expense of the show if they were able to treat their existing customers and/or mix it up with industry professionals at a fun, “event within an event,” like a theme party, a pub crawl, a golf outing, a ball game or some local attraction. Unfortunately, most of these concepts don’t translate well on a virtual platform, but an activity-driven class that evolves into a virtual party can.
Think like a trade show organizer.
A successful trade show producer has to deliver for both buyers and sellers, as well as experts and professionals needing certifications or credits if there’s a conference component. To use the previous example, ChefTorial delivers the value proposition for the “attendees,” but its active recruitment of freelance chefs to grow their global team is a brilliant stroke of marketplace genius. The surplus of chefs from all over the world have an opportunity to earn significant income anddemonstrate their skills and expertise to a qualified audience of prospective clients, investors and fans.
Think “sky’s the limit” with the virtual platform.
A typical B2B in-person event has to focus on the industry it’s serving and can fail miserably if it tries serving other market segments in the same venue. A virtual concept can be marketed to consumer audiences, event organizers and a wide range of corporate or commercial interests that would easily recognize the impact of this unique experience on their target audience.
Develop a pricing matrix that shows value and reflects the in-person experience.
A lot of virtual event organizers are emphasizing free registrations to build their community, and there’s merit to this strategy when you consider the long-term growth potential. But when you can craft a $75-per-couple cooking class into a virtual platform that allows you to invite up to 198 people (or 99 couples), you are going to market with a product that has established value and then some.
The concept has enormous potential for development and can be adapted to your business and audience. Think about your goals for the event. Who you are trying to reach, engage and entertain? What kind of additional event activity might help you achieve your goal? Once you figure that out, you can either search for an individual to hire for the event, or go with a company that offers a comprehensive experience. Just be sure to add that extra experience to take your virtual event to the next level.

Over the past few years, veterinarians and pet owners alike have emphasized the importance of including high-quality, grain-free food in dog and cat diets. British pet food company Canagan has partnered with nutritionists to develop a range of prime meat and fish-based products to boost pet health. At the 2020 Global Pet Show in Orlando, Canagan showed off its all-natural, grain-free ingredients with a booth that invited customers in for a transformative experience.
Client Desires: A Hands-On Visitor Experience
Canagan wanted its 20×20 rental booth to draw in new customers, build relationships with existing customers, and emphasize the origin and quality of its product line. Because Canagan sets itself apart from the competition by using real meat and fresh vegetables in its pet food (instead of corn, grains, and other fillers), its booth needed to help visitors truly feel what the brand represents while bringing the Canagan brand to life.
The Rockway Solution
Rockway’s designers worked closely with Canagan to build on some general exhibit concepts and goals. By combining Rockway’s experience with Canagan’s innate knowledge of its brand, we were able to create a strategic design that took this exhibit to the next level.
To connect attendees to the brand and product, we created a complete brand experience through outdoorsy graphics, grass plants and turf, wood grains, a barrel, barn-like roofing, and real fresh vegetables to emphasize Canagan’s all-natural, fresh ingredients. Keeping these vegetables fresh throughout the four-day conference was a bit of a challenge, but regular refrigeration and a few quick spritzes of water were all that was needed to keep them looking lush.
Other exhibit features included:
• A backlit storage tower to display a range of food products
• Double-sided backlit pillars
• Puck and market lights
• Pedestals and signs that were designed with a hiking-trail look and feel
• Wooden crates, a wooden barrel, and a wood beam roof
• Custom inlay flooring
• Rustic bar tables and stools
• Corrugated metal accents
This eye-catching, fresh-feeling booth generated many compliments and some major interest from attendees. Canagan was pleased to share about the process our team took to discover their brand and goals, “[Rockway] asked me a lot of questions, prior to designing the booth, this meant [Rockway] understood what we were trying to achieve. This resulted in an open and inviting booth, which drew attention to us from all angles.”

At Rockway Exhibits + Events, we’re committed to helping our clients create a dynamic, high-quality display that provides each customer with a memorable experience. We begin each of our client partnerships with a meeting, where we gather the details needed to fully understand your brand, needs, goals, and how you’d like to achieve them. As a full-service exhibit provider, we then handle everything from construction and shipping to storage, installation, and dismantling. By taking these duties off your hands, you can dedicate your focus on connecting and educating attendees on your brand and offerings.

Advantages of a mall kiosk

By on February 24, 2020

Here are 2 of the key advantages that the mall kiosk holds for small and entry level businesses.

One advantage of starting a kiosk as a small business is its low cost of entry into the marketplace. Starting investments for a kiosk are way less than the cost for prime rental space in a permanent retail location. The small footprint of the kiosk means lower square footage costs and lower overhead.

Essentially you get the advantages of being in a high traffic area with great exposure, for a fraction of the cost.

Another advantage of a small business is being nimble. By being small you can react faster to market changes and change course easily whereas it takes larger businesses a lot more time.

The mall kiosk gives you great flexibility.

Offer services to complement your business

If it makes sense for your business, offer in-store services that make your customers’ lives easier.

If you’re a jewelry retailer, perhaps you can offer jewelry cleaning and repairs. Sell apparel? Maybe you can make room for basic alterations.

Should you charge for these services? That depends on your business model, products, and margins. In some cases, it might make sense to make certain services complimentary. Most jewelers, for example, offer free jewelry cleaning. In other instances, it’s better to charge a fee or require a purchase.

Some make up shops offer a free makeover by purchasing $50 worth of products.

Analyze your retail market and margins to figure out the right strategy for your business.

 

How can kiosk reduce the cost of business?

A company using a retail kiosk strategy is able to offer more services at a lower cost.

Because retail kiosks can handle many of the customer inquiries that are not directly related to sales, the retailer’s employees will be able to focus more of their efforts on increasing sales, which will generate more revenue for both the store and the sales associate.

In addition, by streamlining the total number of employees needed to service their customers, a retailer can also cut back on costly managerial resources as fewer total employees require less total management.

Clothing kiosk

Opening a kiosk is a cheaper way to get into the apparel retail business, as opposed to a traditional, brick-and-mortar store. To start a successful clothing kiosk business, there are several things you can do:

Specialize in selling a certain type of clothing–this is otherwise known as your niche. Since a kiosk is a small retailing space, choose clothing that can easily be displayed, such as T-shirts, caps, children’s clothing or pet clothing.

In malls, inventory should be narrowed to the low end of the price range. Since many kiosk and cart purchases are impulse buys, having your customer think twice about the price is something you want to avoid.. Price your clothing reasonably, ideally below what a normal retail store would charge.

Promote your clothing kiosk business. People passing by will be your main source of income, as people don’t generally plan to shop at a mall kiosk; they simply make impulse purchases there. Use large, attractive signage, clearly display your prices and merchandise, and open a website or social networking account so returning customers can connect with you.
