Promotional Trade Show Maps: The Mix of Promotional Material with Wayfinding

• Trade-show / Expo marketing ideas
• City Wayfinding
• Guerrilla Wayfinding

Have you thought about a creating a promotional trade show map at your next trade show event to help visitors navigate the surroundings a little more manageable? When it comes to maps, most people have given up with the complex paper maps of old. The reason is that of the complicated folding procedures that might have been easy to unravel, yet seemingly impossible to put back together.

Older generations grew up in the era when those paper maps were used on car trips before the age of GPS. Even younger generations still use paper maps at times, though you seldom see them available in public places for the above reasons. But here at PocketMaps, we're changing things by producing smaller maps that are easier to open and use. We also provide variations on a theme where other things can be printed on the map to combine wayfinding with marketing.

We offer all this through our customizable pocket maps that are small enough to fit in anyone's pocket. They're also made to be easily opened so you can gain a basic feel of old paper maps without the confusion of complicated folding. At the same time, we leave room on customized maps to help promote an event, which includes a trade show.

How can we design a trade show map for you that provides the opportunity for people to find their way around while promoting your company?
