4 Commonly Asked Questions Are there other Product Theaters at the same time as mine? National Associations: Yes, often there are 3 or more Product Theaters running concurrently; Many national associations publish the policy of "Attendees are served on a 1st come, 1st served basis" Attendees are often times confused about which program to attend, and although many may want to learn about your product, they are often turned away because space fills up. DMGCME: There are NO competing programs - you have all the prescriber's undivided attention! Our management team is committed to hosting the most professional program for you; everyone can expect to be accommodated. How many participants will attend my Product Theater? National Associations: running at the same time. Attendance is not guaranteed as there are usually multiple programs DMGCME: Virtually all our conference attendees participate in the Product Theaters. We promote your programs multiple times via advance e-blasts as part of our robust RSVP program. This way, attendees commit to attending the program and therefore increases overall Product Theater participation. Additionally, we promote your Product Theater on-site with registration staff and placement of materials, signage, etc. How many times per year can you host a Product Theater for me? National Associations: Just one time per year - during the annual meeting. DMGCME: Most of our Product Theaters like to engage our audience multiple times throughout the year. That's why we feature 6 programs across the country with dates and locations chosen by you. What is the investment? National Associations: Fees are as high as $45,000 - $100,000 for each Product Theater (as high as $150 - $200/attendee); Association has only 1 chance per year to fill coffers. DMGCME: We know ROI is important to you, and because we don't have expensive overhead like many national organizations, we're able to charge only $85/attendee plus small admin fee. The Product Theater sponsor pays only for the number of participants in the room (billed post event). You could host 4 nationally attended Product Theaters with us for what you may spend at just 1 event with some other associations. GREAT VALUE! 4
