3 things to note before assigning work to a retail display firm


Even if you have the best store with the most coveted products, the customer can pass by without even a fleeting glance. Thus it is important that the store looks inviting and attractive to the shoppers who pass by it. One of the main ideas to attract the customer is to arrange an eye catching window display. Serious businesses do not take a casual view towards window display anymore. It requires the help of a retail design company or a visual merchandiser to put up quality window displays.

Hiring a company requires a lot of consideration because they would be responsible for the whole look of the display. Creating stunning visual displays require expertise and talent. Let’s look at some of the things to be considered before assigning contracts to a company.

1. Excellence in design 

Designers of the company should have good skills and experience in working with similar projects. They should have lots of ideas that are practical and creative and also have expertise in handling challenges in retail display. The design team of the company will be the ones that will work closely with you in the project. So it is essential that you maintain a very close contact with them and have a good rapport with them. It is not necessary that a company that has good designers will be able to come up with a good ad message. So there should definitely be a marketing team present with the designers to work out the perfect ad message and design that complement each other.

A good designer will bring out what is in your mind without much effort. He/she will be intuitive enough to effectively blend market trends with your design ideals. The design team should be given authority to utilize all of marketing materials available to them. But is ultimately your decision to choose or reject a design proposal. A brainstorming session will be very effective to bring out the best creative ideas from both the design and the marketing team.

2. Good experience in window displays

Before assigning a company you must first verify whether it has the necessary experience in the field. Do not have any qualms in asking about the company’s previous employers, contracts and finished projects. See samples of their previous work, photos, videos and other artwork to get an idea of how they go about designing displays. This is also a good way to understand whether the design company keeps up with the pulse of the market. Experience can also be helpful in deciding for your company, what will work and what won’t.
3. Get information from the company’s past clients

This is another good idea for knowing more about the design firm that you are going to employ. Past customers of the company can be expected to say the truth, whether the design and display were good and so on. If they are happy and satisfied, you can go ahead and do business with the company. A bad opinion on the other hand should make you wary and refer to more clients to see if they have the same opinion. If more than one person tells you that the firm work was not up to the mark then you can cut the company out of your list.

These are some basic tips before assigning work to a retail design company. Other factors like cost and time of the project can also be a deciding factor in choosing a good company.
