"Adding the emarketing360 eSALESKIT to our Group Sales effort has been a tremendous help to our team. The 360 pictures increase our ability to sell the destination with pictures that are professionally taken, crystal clear and beautiful! The eFLOORPLAN has helped meeting planners see how the meeting space flows, and with the 360 pictures planners can see around the entire room--without coming out on a site visit. We have so many awesome activities in our area, adding the eSITEMAP, gives a vehicle to show where all the venues are located, right over the phone! Adding the 360 site for our team to use has helped us sell the Marriott in San Diego!

“With the eSALESKIT, all items that would normally be faxed or sent are available to the customer to print or copy into a document. This includes menus, maps and directions, package inclusions and technology explanation. For only $15,000 we will be able to update our info so it is always current. Print media costs at least 3 times that amount and it is almost always outdated once you print.
The most exciting aspect of the eSALESKIT for us... The sales team has found that they have better conversion while booking customers that are not able to visit our property. From September 02 - March 03 we have been able to track at least $350,000 worth of business that was specifically booked because of the eSALESKIT. Customers are delighted with the full 360 degree view of all areas of our property and this gives third party planners a much better tool to sell us sight unseen to end users.
Our eSALESKIT is linked to our Hilton.com website on both group and reservation pages.
This eSALESKIT gives you all the features of a website without the need for a maintenance contract.”

“Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how effective the
eMARKETING360 panoramas are even before we get the eSALESKIT.
We received a lead last week from Hilton National Sales for a series of meetings where the end user was working through a third party. We submitted a bid for them to consider
To make a long story short, we ended up contacting the end user via email with the link to the eMARKETING360 panoramas. The enthusiasm demonstrated by our sales manager, Paul Romero, coupled with the panoramas you took, got the client on an airplane and in our lobby in less than 48 hours. When she left an hour later we had reached an agreement for all seven of her 2005 meetings valued around $245,000. The client also mentioned that she had used a facility like ours (though not as plush!) for the past three years. Assuming the sale through 2007 we are now looking at a client that can deliver roughly $735,000.
Pictures may be worth a thousand words but the panoramas you took of our facilities are worth nearly three-quarters of a million dollars!”

“Greetings from the Washington DC!
I am a Convention Sales Manager for the Hilton Washington and Capital Hilton. A few months ago, I received a request for availability from a third party meeting planner, Prestige Accommodations, located in Santa Ana, California. I sent him the link for the online eSALESKIT…
Mr. Marlin and ASIST did visit the properties in Boston, but, had not made the trip to Washington DC. After a conference call with Mr. Marlin in California, and the on site planner in Maryland for ASIST, they viewed our online eSALESKIT together, and chose the Capital Hilton without physically viewing the property resulting in a $200,000 contract between Capital Hilton and ASIST.
I have used the online eSALESKIT for various appointments and presentations. It is very helpful in showing the customers how great our product is, especially if they have never seen the hotel or if they have not seen it in many years.
I thank you for your hard work in making this tool such a great success!”

“Our customer base now has the ability to take a virtual “site inspection” through the 6500 acres of this Amazing Resort while our sales leaders are on the phone with them.
Now prospects are more confident signing a contract SITE unseen!
The eSALESKIT is a valuable tool that helps us close a sale!”

" From the moment we signed the agreement through editing, everything has been flawless. We were assigned a Production Coordinator who was on top of everything and answered all of our questions.
The photographer was extremely professional, talented and friendly. He was able to show us some of the photos before he left the property and was very easy to work with.
Roger and I reviewed the proofs online yesterday and I am blown away with how nice they look.
If you are looking at doing panoramic shots at your hotel, I truly recommend eMARKETING360.
It was a wonderful investment.
