Follow these steps in the following order:

(May need to jump around depending on questions from client)


1. Start with the 3D tour itself

2. Invoke research

In our research, end-users loved this and said it’s the next best thing to being there. Especially powerful when paired with a video of the machine running.

Really powerful for people who can’t come to the show.


3. Where 3D Tours appear as part of the show

  • Prominently designed into the PACK EXPO show site (featured as a collateral link; have to buy at least a gold package)
  • Promoted in Countdown emails and other related promotion
  • Will be promoted as part of PACK EXPO Xpress during the show (to remote attendees) - the gallery of 3D Tours will be promoted as part of a daily email Live from PACK EXPO

4. Tack on a media package 

    - Media package promotion

  • Actual customer lines installs (if they give permission)

 9. Additional capture opportunities

Capture at the show, when you have the machines all set up. Limited slots, book now.


10. Close

When people start to look for solutions in these 3D Tour sections, you don’t want competitors’ solutions to be the only ones there. 

  • This is a low-cost, low-labor solution that you can do in advance
  • Capture the content once and re-use it everywhere
  • A huge step forward from what we learned at PEC

Common objections

  • Too busy to take virtual appointments during the show - do it before, do it in the weeks after. Do it from 7am to 9am Vegas time, that’s late morning East Coast time anyway
  • Prefer to focus on the physical show - That’s why you do these. You do it ahead of time. Unlike PEC, there’s no at-show burden. This is what you to to attract the people who can’t come to the show.
  • Worried about bandwidth during the show for virtual appointments - Zoom and similar tools can operate under low-bandwidth conditions. And it’s not like there are 500 companies doing this.
