Russian term or phrase: Будет бомба!
Будет Бомба!

Удивить, произвести впечатление, донести нужную информацию, вызвать общественный резонанс, а в целом, сделать «бомбу» - вот цели рекламной кампании в рамках выставки.

Они достигаются путем правильного сочетания компонентов этой «бомбы» - дизайна стенда, полиграфии, сувенирной продукции, промоушн-активности и т.д. В комплексе, каждый из компонентов преумножает действие предыдущих.

agree  Dorene Cornwell: It will be "The Bomb" is moderately positive; "ït will bomb" is definitely not what you want and "make a splash"is better than either.

We need to push our message through, strike it home, be conspicuous by our presence,


Explanation:
create a highlight, something that could steal the focus and literally rock the place, blow anything else into oblivion/insignificance/the background, even just for a moment. Here's how we are going to make the "cookie"--we need everything in the right balance
