Creative Project Manager & Designer
Trade Show &
Marketing Campaign
Project Overview
Throughout my time supporting Monitor Audio's marketing initiatives, I designed a wide range of promotional materials that showcased the company's custom installation product lineup across multiple marketing channels. This included trade show booth graphics, large-format display banners, print advertisements, and digital marketing assets, all created to deliver consistent branding and clearly communicate key product messaging.
Each project presented its own unique requirements, but they all shared the same objective: creating marketing materials that were visually engaging, easy to understand, and aligned with the Monitor Audio brand. By maintaining consistency across every piece, I helped create a unified experience that supported both marketing initiatives and sales efforts.

The Goal
The goal of this project was to create a cohesive marketing campaign that strengthened Monitor Audio's presence within the custom installation market. At the center of that effort was the trade show experience, supported by complementary print, digital, and large-format marketing materials that built awareness, reinforced consistent messaging, and supported sales conversations with dealers, integrators, and customers across multiple touchpoints.
The Solution
To bring the project together, I served as a key point of contact between our internal team and the trade show booth manufacturer, coordinating feedback, reviewing layouts, and ensuring every design aligned with the project's goals. Using detailed booth dimensions, I planned each design around shelving, televisions, product displays, and other structural elements, ensuring the finished booth was both visually engaging and functional.
Throughout the project, I reviewed production proofs, collaborated during the installation process, and helped ensure the final booth reflected the original design intent. This hands-on involvement helped ensure every element came together seamlessly and delivered the experience we had envisioned.
The Challenge
The biggest challenge was creating a trade show experience that effectively showcased Monitor Audio's custom installation product lineup within a limited booth footprint. With only a finite amount of space available, every graphic, product display, and messaging element had to be carefully planned to maximize visibility while keeping the booth open, organized, and easy to navigate.
Beyond the booth itself, the supporting marketing materials needed to maintain a consistent visual identity across print, digital, and large-format applications. Balancing clear product communication with cohesive branding across multiple formats required thoughtful planning and attention to detail.
Beyond the trade show itself, I extended the visual direction across print, digital, and large-format marketing materials to create a cohesive campaign. By maintaining consistent branding, messaging, and design throughout, I helped deliver a unified experience that supported sales conversations and reinforced Monitor Audio's presence across multiple customer touchpoints.
Final Result
Increased Visitor Engagement: The redesigned booth created a stronger presence on the trade show floor and generated increased interest from dealers, sales representatives, and attendees. Feedback from internal teams and partners highlighted the improved presentation, layout, and overall experience compared to previous booth designs.
Enhanced Product Experience: By carefully planning the booth layout, graphics, and product placement, I helped create a more organized and intuitive environment that made it easier for visitors to navigate the space and explore Monitor Audio's custom installation product lineup. The improved visual hierarchy allowed us to showcase a wider range of products while maintaining a clear and engaging experience.
Consistent Brand Experience: The visual direction was carried across trade show graphics, large-format displays, print advertisements, and digital marketing assets, creating a cohesive brand presence across multiple customer touchpoints.
Long-Term Marketing Value: The booth design and supporting marketing materials were created with flexibility and longevity in mind, allowing them to be reused for multiple years across trade shows, sales conversations, and other marketing initiatives.
