The most useful data in Exhibitor magazine's Economic Outlook Survey is buried in the spending-by-category breakdown. Here's what it shows: Sixty-seven percent of respondents are maintaining their shipping budgets, with 15 percent increasing. Makes sense. You can negotiate many things in this industry, but the cost of getting your booth from point A to point B is not typically among them.

Show services expenditures are being maintained by 69 percent, with only 8 percent increasing and 18 percent cutting. Given that show services are consistently the category exhibitors complain about most — a category where prices rarely decrease and vendor options are often limited by exclusivity — this particular number suggests not contentment but resignation. People aren't happy with what show services cost. They're just not seeing a way around it.

Graphics can make or break your booth design. And in the case of this delightful design for Advantage Solutions at NPEW 2025, elements from their brand refresh were infused throughout the space to turn flooring and fabric walls into bold brand statements, engaging digital graphics, and flooring that did double duty as a wayfinding device. What's more, it's a finalist for The Experiential Design Authority's 2026 ExSys Awards!

Meet Kaleb Oemig, Senior Exhibit Designer at Storylink Creative — one of the creative minds helping turn client goals into eye-catching experiences for trade shows, events, and permanent installations.

Kaleb works closely with clients to understand what they want to achieve and then helps “paint the pretty picture” that brings those ideas to life.

A few things to know about Kaleb:
🎨 His superpower is speed — he’s known for getting things done very quickly
♟️ He was a chess champion when he was younger
🚤 Despite rumors, he does not spend workdays riding a jet ski (he doesn’t even own one)

And yes — when he was seven, he fell out of the back of a van in a parking lot and had to chase it down so his family wouldn’t accidentally leave him behind.

Watch the video to meet Kaleb and learn more about the designer helping bring Storylink exhibits to life.

Exhibitor magazine's 2026 Economic Outlook Survey paints a fairly clear picture of the financial landscape. Forty-one percent of respondents are operating on total 2026 trade show budgets under $500,000. Another 20 percent sit in the $500K to $1 million band. Eleven percent are between $1 million and $2 million, and 16 percent are north of $2 million. Twelve percent reported being unsure of their budget — which, frankly, is its own kind of data point. If you don't know how much you have to spend, the conversation about whether you're spending it wisely probably hasn't happened yet.

A great exhibit doesn't start with a sketch. It starts with a schedule. But often projects begin too late, forcing design compromises, inflated production costs, and missed opportunities. So to help exhibitors establish realistic timelines that will result in the best possible solutions for their exhibit- and event-marketing needs, we've outlined the "ideal" timeline. While not every project will have the luxury of nine to 12 months' lead time, this provides a framework for when you're considering a new build or a major exhibit overhaul.

This guide will walk you through:
The ideal timeline for developing a new exhibit (from RFI to debut show)
Why each milestone matters, and what's happening behind the scenes during each phase
The risks of rushing — including hidden costs, reduced creativity, and avoidable stress
