Keep your logo front and center with these event branding tips.
Planning a successful event takes more than just coordinating logistics—it’s also about making a lasting impression. One of the most effective ways to do this is by ensuring your brand is consistently and strategically displayed throughout the event. Whether you’re hosting a trade show, fundraiser, conference, or company outing, effective event branding helps attendees remember who you are, what you offer, and why you stand out.
At FORMost Graphic Communications, we specialize in custom branding solutions that bring your events to life. Here’s how you can keep your logo front and center—literally and figuratively—at your next event.
Start with the Right Signage
Your signage is the first thing people see and it sets the tone. Large-format signage like pop-up tents, retractable banners, and sandwich board signs helps establish your brand presence the moment guests arrive. For indoor events, backdrops, wall graphics, and hanging signs ensure your booth or presentation space is unmistakably yours. These signs should feature your logo prominently and maintain your brand’s color palette and tone throughout.
Dress the Part with Branded Apparel
Your team is a walking billboard, and branded apparel ensures that your staff stands out. Matching polo shirts, jackets, t-shirts, and hats with your company logo create a unified, professional appearance. It also helps guests easily identify team members who can assist with questions or provide information. FORMost offers a wide range of branded apparel, including well-known name brands like Under Armour, Nike, and Cutter & Buck.
Use Custom Table Throws and Accessories
Don’t overlook your event table! Custom table throws featuring your logo and brand colors help make even a simple display feel complete and professional. Add branded table signage, flyers, and giveaways to reinforce your message and create more touchpoints for brand recognition.
Incorporate Giveaways That Stick
Promotional items are an excellent opportunity to keep your brand in the hands of attendees long after the event ends. Items like tote bags, water bottles, tumblers, notepads, and keychains are always appreciated—and when they’re branded with your logo, they become ongoing advertisements. Choose high-quality, useful products to leave a positive, lasting impression.
Go Digital with QR Codes and Personalized Print
Want to connect your printed materials to your digital platforms? Include a QR code on banners, brochures, or business cards that links directly to your website, a special offer, or event-specific landing page. FORMost can help you integrate QR code printing into your signage and promo items for a modern, tech-friendly touch.
Stay Consistent Across All Materials
Consistency is key to brand recognition. From your signage and apparel to brochures and name badges, every element should feel cohesive. Use your logo, fonts, and colors consistently across all event materials to ensure your brand is instantly recognizable and professional.
