EXCON 2025: How Exhibitors Could Have Used Visual Media To 10x Their Reach
When you put 1,250+ exhibitors and over a lakh visitors into 3.5 lakh sq. m of exhibition space, attention becomes the scarcest resource in the room. At EXCON 2025, a few brands used visual media brilliantly—high-energy stall films, product demos on big LED walls, and social-first videos—but most exhibitors still relied on static posters, brochures, and overwhelmed sales teams. With a smarter visual media strategy, many could have generated far more leads, recall, and post-event business.
Before the show: Build anticipation with video
The EXCON story for most companies started only when visitors walked into their stall; it should have started weeks earlier on LinkedIn, YouTube, WhatsApp, and email. Pre-event teaser videos and invite films can dramatically increase targeted footfall to specific stalls.
Exhibitors could have:
Created 30–60 second teaser videos announcing new product launches, tech innovations, or live demos planned at their EXCON stall, and promoted them to existing customers, dealers, and prospects.
Shot short “Why visit us at EXCON?” clips with senior leaders explaining what visitors will gain—exclusive previews, test drives, financing support, or partner discussions—then posted them on LinkedIn, YouTube, and industry portals.
Embedded these videos in email invites and WhatsApp broadcasts to key accounts, including stall number, hall, timings, and a clear call-to-action: “Book a meeting slot with our team at EXCON.”
This kind of pre-event visual storytelling turns a generic exhibition visit into a planned, high-intent meeting for serious buyers and partners.
At the stall: Turn your space into a live visual experience
On-ground, the difference between a “busy stall” and a “memorable brand experience” is how well exhibitors use motion, light, and storytelling. At EXCON 2025, some companies like HD Hyundai CE India and Fine Equipments stood out with launch films, live demos, and booth videos that drew crowds and framed their machines as next-gen solutions, not just metal on display.
Exhibitors across the board could have:
Run high-impact product films on large LED screens showing machines at real sites—quarries, highways, metro projects—highlighting fuel savings, productivity, safety, and operator comfort through visuals instead of dense spec charts.
Designed short, looping explainer videos (60–90 seconds each) for different buyer personas: fleet owners, contractors, rental companies, mining operators, and government buyers, each with focused benefits and outcomes.
Used choreography and storytelling in live demos—coordinated movements, timed commentary, and synchronized screen content—to convert functional demonstrations into “shows” that people remember and record on their phones.
Visual media here acts like a magnet: it stops people in their tracks, pulls them into the stall, and pre-sells the story before a salesperson even begins talking.
Make discovery easier: Visual wayfinding and micro-explainers
In such a massive show, even finding the right stall or understanding what a company actually does can be hard. Many exhibitors filled backdrops with text-heavy product lists, which visitors simply did not have the energy or time to decode.
Visual media could have solved this by:
Using bold, minimal hero visuals and a single clear headline visible from 15–20 metres away that communicates the core value: for example, “Fuel-Saving Excavators for Highway Projects” or “Smart Concrete Solutions for Metro & High-Rise”.
Adding QR-linked micro videos: visitors scan a QR code and watch a 30–45 second “stall tour” or product explainer on their phones, in their own time, without waiting for a salesperson.
Creating simple motion-graphic explainers for complex systems—e.g., telematics platforms, hybrid powertrains, automation and control—so engineers and procurement teams can grasp the concept in minutes.
This approach respects visitors’ time and attention while dramatically increasing how many people actually understand the brand’s offering.
Capture stories, not just contacts
Most exhibitors focused on collecting business cards and scanning badges; very few actively captured the stories and reactions unfolding at their stalls. Yet EXCON is one of the richest environments for authentic testimonials, product reactions, and expert opinions.
With a basic content setup, exhibitors could have:
Recorded quick customer testimonials on-site—contractors, dealers, or fleet owners sharing one-minute stories about how a machine performed on their project.
Filmed expert walkthroughs: product managers explaining key features and USPs of new launches once, then replaying and repurposing that content online instead of repeating the same pitch hundreds of times verbally.
Set up a simple “video kiosk” or designated recording corner where visitors answer prompts like “What problem are you trying to solve at EXCON?” and “What did you like most about this product?”—creating both engagement and a bank of market insights.
Every one of these videos lives beyond the five days of EXCON, feeding social media, sales decks, website pages, and dealer training programs.
After the show: Extend EXCON long after the gates close
The real value of visual media appears once the exhibition ends. Instead of sending plain follow-up emails, exhibitors who invested in video during EXCON could nurture leads with tailored visual content.
They could have:
Sent personalised follow-up emails with a short recap video of their stall, key product highlights, and specific clips relevant to each visitor’s interest (e.g., mining, roads, concrete, rentals).
Published “EXCON highlights” reels on LinkedIn and YouTube—showing crowds, demos, launches, and leadership soundbites—to reinforce brand authority and remind visitors of their interactions.
Turned recorded interviews and demos into a mini “EXCON Insights” video series, educating the wider market that could not attend the show.
Bottom Line...
In a show as competitive and noisy as EXCON 2025, machines alone are not enough. Visual media—planned strategically before, during, and after the event—is what converts a stall into a stage, a passersby into a lead, and a five-day exhibition into a year-long marketing asset library.
