Increase Sales By Using The Best Display Stands

by Jason Plummer

Using display stands is a the most popular way of advertising greeting cards that are on sale in a store. For this reason, a lot of shop owners tend to ignore the importance of this piece of furniture, hey get so used to it that they barely notice its potential. Often. more than just a few shop owners mistakenly believe that a display stand is just a display stand and nothing else. Thus, this article will discuss not only how to choose the perfect display stand, but also how you can sell more greeting cards when using it.

Display stands should be pieces of store equipment that can emphasize the pleasant characteristics of the materials that it showcases. It must be classy and innovative in the same way that the greeting cards that it will exhibit. But then, the \”class\” and \”innovation\” should be with some restraint because the stands are there in order to allow the greeting cards to be noticed by the public. We want the public to buy the cards, not the stand.

First, it should be capable of putting as many greeting cards on display as possible. This helps to give a prospective buyer a chance to see as many as he or she can. One of the most annoying things for a customer to endure is having to sift through a pile of greeting cards, just to find that one single card that perfectly embodies her thoughts. Because of this, a lot of greeting card stands are capable of rotating 360 degrees, thereby maximizing the number of cards that it can display at any time. This also allows cards on display to stay looking new longer.

Second, its design must be in harmony with what it displays. When we say design,we refer not only to the colors and lines that make up the product, but also the overall architecture and materials used to make it. The perfect stand should look elegant and up-to-date. Have you noticed the countless number of greeting card stands that line so many shops, a vast majority of which looked like they were ripped out from an 80\’s movie? That is what customers do not want. Instead, they want a display that exudes an air of relevance and responsiveness – something that more modern stands can offer.

Third, greeting cards on sale should more noticeable with the help of a stand. Although many shop owners have the tendency to get the best stand that their budgets could afford, the shop owner must still keep in mind that a stand which is too grandiose, too elaborate, may take the attention of the customer off of the cards and on to the stand itself. Look at it this way, if a set of greeting cards on display have very plain lines in its design, the stand should also incorporate a plain (but classy) design – not following this rule of thumb may make a customer end up wanting the stand and not the cards.

Display stands should have ample space. Being able to put as many cards within a customer\’s view means fewer of them would need to physically handle and examine the cards, allowing the cards to appear new for long. It should also integrate an overall design that is in harmony with the cards on display. It has to be artistic, which can most easily be attained by putting a prime on simplicity. By using the perfect display stand, customers will find it easier to see the greeting card that they really want, and that is what we call a sale.
