Custom permanent pop display and interactive kiosk budgeting

"Great display idea! Now, what will it cost to fabricate it?"

Knowing right away that an exciting custom pop display or interactive kiosk idea fits your budget can be a great help during project brainstorming sessions. Knowing that it doesn't, but that there's another design approach that does, can be invaluable. The creative process moves forward confidently or regroups, if the numbers won't work, with little wasted effort.

(If you haven't arrived at a budget yet, download our "How to budget pop displays" document for a common-sense way to generate one.)

Getting a handle on likely costs early on in the project - fabrication costs for permanent displays, plus multimedia and electronics costs for interactive kiosks - is the key if you want to avoid the vast plans, half-vast budget problem.

If you'd like to make sure your ideas are in line with your budget before your project gets too much momentum, contact us. If the answer is "probably not," chances are we'll have some reasonable alternatives for you to consider.

How we work - To preserve the confidentiality of your project during its brainstorming stages, we estimate production costs and lead times in house as we explore display and kiosk design alternatives with you. The fact that you're even considering a project is never inadvertently revealed to the marketplace or your competitors as a result of "how much would this design cost to produce?" dialogs with potential fabricators.

Once the design is in tight focus, we gather formal cost and lead time estimates from potential fabricators of permanent displays and kiosks for whatever prototyping, test market runs, and volume production runs you've asked us to consider, again without revealing your identity.

This information is consolidated into a polished costs-and-lead-times document provided to you with the pop display or kiosk's final design package. The design materials are provided separately so they can be shown to interested third parties (like key retailers) for feedback without exposing the costs and time frames.

These two deliverables -- the project design package and the memo outlining the design's likely production costs and lead times -- provide you with a complete package of information from which an informed decision about proceeding with your project can be made. You'll know in advance what your display or kiosk will look like, how it will work, how long it will take to make, and that it fits the budget.

If you'd like professional help designing a successful custom permanent pop display or interactive kiosk-- one that pleases everyone, enhances your sales, and fits your budget too -- contact us. Discussions are strictly confidential and without obligation.
