OK here is my answer to get shoppers to notice that I have beer soap. Can't wait for that show this weekend.

There's this really great flickr group that is all soap displays. It's not huge but there are lots of different kinds of set-ups to check out.

I have a show coming up May 2nd and am worried about my display. It is only a 5X10 booth. I think 10 across so I should still have a regular size table I believe. I hope. I need to get some stuff to make different heights. I hope everyone does well at their shows!

Well my first big $$ show has come and gone. This was also my first 2 day show as well. The first day sales were good, really very good. The second day sales were flat! Over all figuring all cost I did make money but I am not sure it was worth all the work. I had alot of fun doing the show and can't wait to do the next one. My booth space was 20' by 6'. I set up 3 6' tables end to end. Below are some pic's of my setup. Also JessyV I see I did not answer a question you asked.
[quote][Totally off topic - but beer soaps sound interesting. What does beer do to soap? Make it more bubbly?
/quote]
Because beer is sweet it does add to the lather. I do them because it is a little less common soap and I brew my own beer.

Here are my show pic's.

Left table

Center table

Right table

The whole run

OK now I have taken the time to post my show pic's so I expect the rest of you to do the same. Lets see those pic's.

WOW! What a nice display. How long did it take you to prepare enough product for this show??

Here is a pic of one of our displays at a show last year. We sell diffusers and I offer them with a variety of beautiful bottles from Spain. I place the bottles throughout my tables. They really add visual appeal.

Looks good!
I wonder if the products would "pop" more if you added a white cloth instead?
