Publication number: 20160247198Abstract: A method for a company to interact with customers via the internet configured to expedite reliable lead generation, and encourage positive reviews is described. The method is configured to provide incentive for prospective customers to provide contact information, and to facilitate the customers' access to reviews directly following the submission of contact information. Each prospective customer is presented with a video detailing an honest account of why he or she should choose to conduct business with the company over other competitors. The contact information submission page is prominent and easily located by prospects. Upon the prospect's submission of his or her contact information, a second video is triggered to display to the prospect, encouraging them to read recent reviews of the company, which preferably reinforce and confirm the positive, honest claims of the company. Following a sale, the customer is reminded and encouraged to leave a review immediately.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2015Publication date: August 25, 2016Inventor: David Johnson, JR.

Patent number: 9090038Abstract: An apparatus and method is provided for setting up bottle carrier baskets from a flat folded configuration to an expanded and locked condition. The carrier basket is picked from a magazine storage location by a pick up head with vacuum cups and transferred to a pair of opposed opener heads with vacuum cups. The opener heads move along divergent paths to expand the carrier basket and a linear brake slows the carrier handle to cause the body to move past the handle, positioning a notch in the bottom panel to engage a hook in the central wall. A rotating kicker raises the bottom panel, engaging the hook and the notch as the vacuum is released from the opener vacuum cups.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2012Date of Patent: July 28, 2015Assignee: Wayne Automation CorporationInventors: Joseph L.
