"Hi , this is Joe Vitale. We
are now wrapping up the Spiritual Marketing Super Summit, the
first ever, here in Austin, Texas.
And we kicked
it off with Mark Twain. And I want you to know that Gary brought
to life and kicked this entire event into high drive, with creativity, with humor, with
wisdom, with charm, with originality, because Mark Twain on the
big screen with me interacting with him and my audience interacting
with him was something nobody had ever seen before.
So I have found
this breathtaking, and I have nothing but great things to say about Gary, about
Mark Twain and what he does. I'm going to use him again for other
seminars and my next big Summit in 2005, and I encourage everybody
else to use him, too."

"Working with Gary at CHOPS was an absolutely
positive experience. He kept his routine strictly within our
corporate guidelines and was able to generate great attendee
draw. Gary was also meticulous with his advanced show planning
and studying the materials we supplied to him. Lastly, over a
four-day show, it seemed like Gary worked the crowds seemingly
without any major downtime. Great work ethic! Terrific results!"

"Gary! What can I say? So
easy to work with? Total pro?
Incredible product? Talented improv
actor? Worth every penny? You bet. It
was a pleasure. Can't wait to do it
again!"

Events Management.
"The introduction of a virtual
reality character to this year's convention added a new and
different
touch. I
appreciate your willingness to operate Major Donor and be the
voice behind the image.
"In an effort to spark some
creative thinking regarding the future of fund raising, Major Donor and the dream
sequence actors were creative, futuristic additions to our program.
I'm glad you felt comfortable enough to ad lib some of the script
and include a bit of your own personality. The on-stage interaction
with Major Donor held everyone's attention and was quite entertaining.
This year's event would not have been as innovative as it was
without your assistance."

"Please know that all agreed
that you were a terrific contribution to our conference in
DC. Many attendees
indicated that our booth was the best (and you were a big part
of that) and that you (Dr. Dee) were the best part of the trade
show. I agree!
"A few comments come "top of mind":
"- You were outstanding
in your pre-conference preparation... you knew our company,
products and services very well. You represented
our company as professional and knowledgeable. All of us were
surprised that you had so much to say (accurately) about our
company.
"- You had
an uncanny way of knowing a little something about everything, to facilitate meaningful
conversation with all attendees.
You knew little facts about different places (as when an attendee
indicated they were from a particular state or country), current
events, even speaking to people in different languages.
" - You were most helpful
in screening and qualifying attendees. You quickly determined if they were serious
(and introduced
them
to one of us) or just looking around (you simply invited them
in the booth to look around). This helped the team focus on serious
prospects, while making everybody feel welcome.
" - You had unbelievable
energy, working non-stop for several hours at a time, and keeping such a terrific momentum.
Over 4 days,
I never saw your energy lull.
" - You were funny, maintained
variety in your conversations, and yet stayed professional.
" - You were very flexible,
followed suit with the DDI team, honored unique requests, and demonstrated
a "can do" attitude
all day, each day."

"Utilizing CHOPS in a total marketing package
can double or triple the amount of qualified leads."

"One of the challenges
we always have is getting those people skirting around the
edges of the booth and drawing them in. And
one of the things we did differently this year, is we used
Gary and the
Prometheus
talking head. And what that really afforded us is something
novel to get the physician to stop long enough to interact,
that gave our sales people time to then interact with the customer
and bring more people into the booth."
CHOPS: So in your experience, they stayed
a little longer than they did in some of the other booths?
"Oh, absolutely. I think our average
contact time was close to 10 minutes per customer, and in other booths,
I say that, aside from the free coffee and other gifts they're giving
out, they are lucky if they are getting 90 seconds."
