Remember the 4 Display Window P’s • Products • Placement • Props • Promotion
Product • Identify the purpose of your retail display. • Decide who your target audience is and their needs • Choose products you have easy available and are not hard to get • Narrow your products down to a few relevant choices • Include a variety of price points
Placement • Map out your display - usually people look to the right of your display first. • A repeated message throughout the displays will most likely get the message to your customers. • Display the merchandise so people can interact with it and see it. • Odd numbers are more appealing to the eye
Props • 80/20 rule: No more then 20% of the display should be props. • Let your retail products be the stars and the decorations be the supporting cast. • Be strategic and choose props that support your display cases. • Props can be used to add variety in height, texture and color to your display, which will draw attention to the products.
Promotion • The display is part of your marketing plan. • Promote the displays on Facebook and Pinterest to start having your audience engaged and interacting.
