Face it: B2B sales isn’t what it was 10 years ago.

The growth of the internet and  surge of Social Media outlets have caused a major swing in the way we do business today.  Prospects and clients alike can easily research and choose the  solutions for their needs: often before the traditional card-toting, cold-calling salesman has a chance to get his foot in the door.

Today they have more ways than ever to draw conclusions on YOUR brand before you may get a chance to say it yourself.

So what’s a company to do? (more…)

Today we’re going to make an exception to the old rule about “what happens in Vegas” and tell you about what a great overall success this year’s Pack Expo turned out to be.  It seems that most of the post-Pack buzz focuses on strong speakers,  a high volume of new connections made, and an overall surprisingly great turnout considering  the current economy.  In fact, reported total visitor and exhibitor numbers for the co-located event indicate 2009 as the the “second-largest PACK EXPO Las Vegas since PMMI launched the show in 1995.”

It’s great to see widespread satisfaction across the board, for visitors and exhibitors alike.   Frankly,  we’ve been trying to sum up our feelings about the whole thing, and all we’ve managed to come up with is one simple word: (more…)

Devoted to the packaging industry and serving suppliers and buyers of packaging machinery, materials, components and services, the 2009 Pack Expo will be held at the Las Vegas Convention Center in  Las Vegas, NV.

We’ll be following with more details as the event date nears, and we sure hope you join us at Booth S4924 if you’re at the Expo – it’s a great opportunity to visit with customers and vendors, both old and new!

Pack Expo 2008 is in the books and York Saw & Knife is back from the Windy City. We really enjoyed the show – and it seemed Pack Expo enjoyed the YSK booth! More attendees visited our booth than any other Pack show we’ve been involved with!* So congrats to the Pack Expo organizers and our own YSK team who coordinated our show participation and staffed the event.

York Saw & Knife blades not only deliver proven results, but they also get a lot of attention. People regularly stopped at the YSK booth to take a look at the wide variety of leading edge York Saw & Knife blades displayed. Among the favorites of the Pack crowd were the packaging knives, straight knives and circular knives.

* Maybe it was the peppermint patties!

For attendees that swiped their card at the YSK booth, we will be sending out information soon!
