I have had the pleasure of working with the team at Studio Blue on 2 occasions now. I was so pleased with our first experience that we engaged their services for a second.
At the end of June, David had contacted me at a time that I happened to be looking into updating some display graphics for an August trade show. I had placed a call to the graphics team that had created our first display. It had been 2 weeks and I had not received a reply despite leaving messages. I thought that I would just have to stay with our old dated display.
At the same time, we were invited to a local convention in early July. (about 12 days away) and I had been toying around with the idea of creating a display for that line of our business. With David on the phone I told him about the immediate event and offered him the opportunity to win our business. If it worked then we would discuss the revision of our bigger display - the one that I had not received any call back from our current designer. David was interested so, he met with us, at our business, listened to our needs, desires for branding and hopes for this display.
Not only did David and his team create the graphics, but he put into reality what had been my absolute hope for this display. He created an attention getting, BEAUTIFUL display.
Remember, I told you that timing was an issue? David had contacted me about 12 days before an first event. He and his team not only created the concept for the display, he provided us with a mock up and further assured me it would be there in time for the event.
David and Studio Blue not only delivered on David's promise but, to ensure that we were able to set it up properly, David personally delivered the display directly to the event AND showed/helped me to set it up. I was up and ready to go in time for the start of the trade show.
I am very happy to say that we were the most beautiful display at this convention. People from across the room were coming by just to look at the display and then we conducted business. I am still benefitting from the contacts made at that event and would not have made as many connections had it not been for the draw of this display.
With the first display such a hit, we decided to update our original display needs through Studio Blue. I worked with Greg and David for this project. Our old display required 4 suitcases - 2 oversize containers for the display and 2 for the items we needed to decorate the booth. It was heavy. It cost more to travel with due to fees for oversize bags and weight limits.
The team at Studio Blue created a second skin for our display and also created a table skirt. It was PERFECT. Plus, we were able to travel with 2 regular sized suitcases with room for other items - because the display was extremely light - I'm estimating 15 lbs vs our original display - about 50 lbs total). The best part was.... the old display took at least 1 1/2 - 2 hours just to set up the pop up. (We had one of the pop ups with the carpeted walls and the graphics velcroed in place It was cumbersome, heavy and hard to get the graphics to line up just right.)
If you have ever set up in a convention center after a long day of flying - you know that it is extremely hot (they don't put the air on for the vendors). With the new display, frame and skin were up in about 15 minutes. The table cover took care of the display table in 15 seconds. We were able to lay out our items and leave. 45 minutes from the time we walked into the convention hall until we were on our way back to the hotel.
We are so pleased with the two displays that we have from the PROFESSIONAL team at Studio Blue. I am proud to be a reference for this company. I invite anyone considering using their services to contact me directly.
Thanks David and Greg!
