This success we expect to transition to course sales in the future.

"Robyn has become a valued addition to our trade show staff. We have utilized her experience and techniques to improve our exposure to future clients at our trade shows. Robyn always carries herself in a professional manner which helps our corporate image. She has been a true value to our sales team."
- Brett Weibel, President at BelQuette (ISS Shows, SGIA, NBM Show)"Robyn did a great job! Very professional without being pushy or "in your face" about getting potential customer's information. She immediately felt comfortable speaking to attendees, and was able to exhibit our product and answer questions from the start. As the show progressed, I noticed that her presentation of the product was more in-depth, and that she was incorporating what she learned on-the-fly. Excellent job, Robyn! I would recommend her company's services to anyone when they need help."
- Kevin Keys, BelQuette (ISS Shows, SGIA, NBM Show)
"Robyn was a great addition to our team at the IBM conference - her professionalism, knowledge of how to draw prospective customers and partners to our booth, and enthusiasm made a very positive impression and helped increase the leads we gathered at the show."
- Diana Hage, CEO at RFID Global (IBM Pulse, RFID Journal Live)
"Robyn did a wonderful job for us at the Kiersted / Systems booth. She was extremely professional, has a terrific can-do attitude and added great value to the booth, the show and to the team. So glad she was part of our show."
- Linda Gordon, VP Sales & Marketing at Kiersted/Systems (LegalTech NY Shows, ILTA)
"Robyn's ability to quickly establish rapport with trade show attendees helped make our exhibit booth efforts significantly more successful. Robyn offers great insight and brings an objective perspective that helps us continually improve our processes."
-Elisa Smith, Marketing Communications Manager at Fugro-Jason (SEG, SPE, AAPG)"Oracle OpenWorld 2010 was the first international exhibit experience for The DBA Shoppe Database Administration. A show like this involves the time and effort of many, many people - all of whom to which we extend our sincere thanks. After all of the planning and preparation, all of the design and production, all of the budgeting and travel arrangements, it ultimately comes down to people engaging people on-site, on a 10x10 double-padded carpet.
Robyn Davis was an instrumental part of making The DBA Shoppe's experience at Oracle OpenWorld a marketing success story. We needed a hostess who could learn database terminology quickly and efficiently in the ramp-up to the event and who could execute a successful delivery of that information in a highly technical sales environment. Robyn's technical background and education was undoubtedly key to her being able to do just that. Employing her professional charm, Robyn successfully attracted OpenWorld attendees into the booth and engaged them in a very pleasant manner, determining quickly whether a good fit existed for both parties. She was very adept at making small alterations to her approach to maximize the number of leads obtained during rushes and busy times and doggedly pursued possible leads during slower times. Robyn worked very well with the other members of the 'Conference Crew' and was a welcome part of the team in post-show-day debriefs.
The DBA Shoppe received a phenomenal response to our exhibit at Oracle OpenWorld 2010 and we will be following up high-quality leads for many months to come.
I would recommend Robyn Davis and When I Need Help to any company who is attending a conference or trade show - after all of the effort to plan and prepare, don't drop the ball on the on-site presentation. Call Robyn Davis when you need help with on-site sales and marketing support.
Thanks Robyn, all the best!"
- David R.W. Brown, Principal, Consulting Services at The DBA Shoppe (Oracle OpenWorld, Educomm)
"Very positive attitude and a willingness to be available with a goal to help us succeed."
- Ray Bisson, VP Business Development at The FWS Group (CIM)
"Robyn did an excellent job in our SlipGrips booth. As an exhibitor at [the NRA Show], it's tough to weed out the consumers from the B2B decision makers. Technically, everyone was invited to take part in our promotions, but the B2B decision makers are who we really want to see. Robyn did an excellent job of managing the contests and funneling the "right" traffic back to our sales team. Our sales guys and gals loved having her there because she did an excellent job of qualifying the traffic as it entered our booth which means that our sales team spent more time with accounts opposed to "regular joes" just looking to win a free pair of shoes. Great stuff!!"
- Joe Hanning, SlipGrips (NRA Show)
"Robyn Davis is an exceptional marketing consultant that provides creative thinking solutions to enhance brand recognition and promote product awareness. GreenShift Corporation hired Robyn in June 2010 to consult on marketing solutions to promote its brand and patented technologies at the Fuel Ethanol Workshop.
Within hours, Robyn was able to learn and understand a completely new industry and present intelligent solutions on branding and marketing for the conference. Her people skills and savvy understanding of our technologies enabled GreenShift to have an additional employee to speak with customers, introduce our products and recommend solutions immediately.
I would highly recommend employing Robyn for any marketing consulting to further enhance the value of a company's sales and branding message. Her experience, work ethic and creativeness were invaluable in achieving our goals and we anticipate hiring Robyn again in the future."
- Chris Kennedy, GreenShift Corporation (FEW)
"Robyn exceeded my expectations at the EMS Today show. She is a quick study, understood and communicated our value proposition and was able to quickly qualify leads. She was very professional and stayed focused all day. Looking forward to using her at our next trade show."
- Dave Falcone, EMS eSchedule (EMS Today)
"It was a pleasure to work with you, Robyn."
- James Snider, Critical Diagnostics (AHA Scientific Sessions)
“[Robyn's pre-show training] was a great way to get everyone up to date with what the goals and expectations are. It gives everyone a chance to ask questions and “be on the same page.” Make sure all the bases are covered and have one central person to go to for ongoing questions or needs. Nice job!!”
- Ted L. (Pre-Show Staff Training participant)
“[Robyn's pre-show training] helped level set requirements and set expectations. Clarified messaging.”
- Nancy K. (Pre-Show Staff Training participant)
“[Robyn's pre-show training] assured that all members of team have the same baseline of information needed to handle visitors to the booth. Established clear guidelines relative to manning the booth, booth hours and procedure to follow to take breaks. Feels like people are more responsible for their assignments. Took load off others.”
- Ron R. (Pre-Show Staff Training participant)
“Very informative. [Robyn's pre-show training] helps motivate and prepare for talking with potential clients.”
- Jennie S. (Pre-Show Staff Training participant)
"I have had the pleasure of working and managing Robyn for at least 4 event marketing events in 2010. She was a top notch brand ambassador for our client and managing her after one event, I had to hire her again and again and again.
Robyn is totally focused and dedicated to her long term goals and while on her journey to accomplish her dreams, she is an amazing event marketer and spokes-model.
I would recommend Robyn to anyone whom needs her services in a New York minute. Her ability to approach consumers at events is unparalleled and her knowledge of the brand is stunning. She gives "free and friendly" advice to all of her promotional managers with valid purpose."
- Joel Harrell, On-Site Manager for events with Nintendo and Canon
