Who handles what during the Louisville install window

Trade show labor, AV, logistics, and installation teams are coordinated against the current building rules and show contractor workflow before move-in begins. Regional projects in Southern Indiana or Lexington are extensions of the Louisville operating radius, each with its own venue procedures.

From first call to strike
Venue coordination comes next.

That document drives the next booking.
Cost and lead time
Cost scales with how it is built, how big it is, what the venue charges for its own services, what the graphics look like, how far the crates travel, and how many days the team stays on-site.
Lead time drives everything. Custom: 16 to 20 weeks. Rental: 8 to 12.
Outcomes we optimize for
Trade show ROI is measured at the lead and pipeline level.
A week after the show, the booth's actual floor performance is already clearer than any pre-show projection. We document those observations alongside the technical closeout so the next cycle inherits real signal, not nostalgia.
