Extraordinary Events

By Jeff Thibodeau, VP Operations

When planning a tradeshow or corporate event, you’re not just booking space and swag — you’re creating an experience. And if you’re looking for something that stops foot traffic, sparks conversations, and leaves attendees talking long after the event is over, you need something more than ordinary. Let’s make your events extraordinary events.

That’s exactly what Innovative Vending Solutions delivers with their custom claw machine rentals — a fun, interactive, and unforgettable experience that turns your booth or brand activation into the most talked-about spot on the floor.


🚀 The Power of Play: Why a Claw Machine Works

Let’s face it: most trade show booths blur together. Pens, pamphlets, a tired-looking banner. But bring in a custom claw machine, and suddenly you’re the one with the line.

Claw machines are nostalgic, exciting, and strangely addictive — and that’s the magic. They appeal to every age group and draw attendees in with the promise of a fun challenge and the chance to win something tangible. It’s engagement that doesn’t feel like marketing, but works even better than traditional promos.


🎁 Prizes with Purpose

With Innovative Vending Solutions, the claw machine isn’t just filled with toys or candy — it’s filled with your branded merchandise, exclusive offers, or high-value incentives that make a lasting impact.

Some creative ideas we’ve seen:

• Branded mini tech gadgets (USBs, earbuds, power banks)

• VIP access cards to demos or lounges

• Discount vouchers or limited-time offers

• Mystery prizes that encourage social media sharing

Every grab becomes a chance to interact with your brand. And thanks to the customization options, the entire experience — from machine wrap to the claw speed — reflects your business identity.


✨ Customization = Brand Immersion

One of the biggest perks of working with Innovative Vending Solutions is the fully customizable design. Whether you want your machine decked out in your brand colors or need it to fit within a theme or campaign, their team makes it happen.

From LED lighting effects to branded touchscreens, you’re not renting a generic arcade machine — you’re creating a branded experience that perfectly aligns with your message.


📈 ROI You Can See

It’s not just about fun (although there’s plenty of that). It’s about results.

Businesses using claw machines at trade shows have seen:

• Increased booth traffic

• Higher engagement and dwell time

• Greater lead collection

• Social shares and online buzz

• Memorable brand impressions

Whether you’re launching a product, boosting awareness, or just trying to stand out in a sea of competitors, a claw machine is a magnet for attention.
