3 POP Display Design Considerations

Let’s look at each of these considerations individually.

Here are some ideas of how your healthcare organization or hospital

POP Display Location
You likely already know this but POP displays are usually located away from the register / checkout areas and occupy more floor space to draw customer attention. But there are a few go-to spots that make for good display locations.

• End Caps
• High Cross Traffic Floor Areas
• Entryways
• Aisleways

The most common POP Display types are:

• Dump Bins
• End Caps
• Freestanding Displays
• Banner Stands
• Gondola Displays
  

Each of these custom retail displays have unique characteristics that could amplify a product better than others so consider the space available, the type of product and again considering the intent you will be able to apply the best location & type for a product.

The Audience
This consideration applies heavily to the retail segment you are in and the persona of the buyer you are targeting. For example, a shopper at a convenience store is more focused on a quick visit and will purchase a lower quantity of items while a shopper at a grocery store will purchase a larger quantity of goods and be more susceptible to POP displays due to the duration of their stay being longer. The more time in a store and the more choices being made on purchases equates to greater opportunity to influence buyers through POP display visuals, messaging and location. Less time in the store means you need to be clear, bold and direct to get the buyer what they need quickly.

You can also target an audience through visuals and messaging that reinforce the aspirations of the customer. For example, if you are selling hiking gear then a freestanding POP display surrounded by a die-cut mountain range will more easily draw in the right type of buyer for that product.
