Show Notes

Danny began his 30+ year career in the trade show industry working in the graphics department of his dad’s company, The Exhibit Store (Dallas, TX), while still in high school.  It was during that time that he learned to appreciate the value of creating & producing quality products and design while keeping the client and end-user in mind.

Since that beginning Danny has worked his way through every department of the trade show industry, from initial client discovery, design consultation, custom and modular exhibit & graphic fabrication, ROI & budget reconciliation, worldwide logistics, exhibit installation & dismantle (I&D) and asset management.  He understands the “total show concept” and enjoys working with clients of all sizes on their long term goals for each project making sure it gets designed and executed on-time and on-budget.

In this episode we talk through the challenges that have come up starting his new business, how Covid-19 has effected his industry, and suggestions for how to effectively prepare for a show.
