20 Things That Matter Most In Creating Effective POP Display Programs

By Jim Hollen, RICH LTD.

What would you say if you knew you were going to die and had a chance to sum up everything that was important to you? That age-old question has been the subject of great debate over the years. But for Randy Pausch, the question was far from hypothetical. You may remember the story of Pausch, a Carnegie Mellon computer science professor who publicly chronicled his battle with pancreatic cancer in a remarkable speech titled the “Last Lecture.” His uplifting speech went viral, drawing worldwide attention and garnering more than 10 million downloads. It was one of the most powerful accounts of optimism, grace, and hope in recent memory.

I was inspired by Pausch’s account and intrigued by the timeless question that gave rise to his now famous speech. After decades in the point-of-purchase display business, we had never really contemplated that question for our company or our industry. So what would we say if we knew we were going to call it quits and had an opportunity to summarize all that we have learned and everything that is important in the POP display business? I asked my team of industry veterans to identify the 20 things that matter most in creating winning retail point-of-purchase displays and in-store marketing programs.
