Challenge:
To find a meeting host that could provide intellectually stimulating breaks between speakers, entertain at evening receptions and banquets, and introduce the CEO in a novel and exciting way.
 
Solution:
Danny Orleans' "The Appearing VIP" provided the perfect formula to kick-off the morning. After Mr. Orleans welcomed everyone to the meeting, he challenged their imagination with group interactive experience involving an invisible deck of playing cards. Then, in a supposed attempt to reveal a magician's secret, he demonstrated how a magician makes a woman appear from an empty cabinet. But, he caught the group of executives off-guard when, instead of a beautiful assistant, their CEO appeared out of the box!

Elizabeth Frisby, VP of Human Resources said, "You were the perfect antidote to a parade of humdrum PowerPoint presentations — The Appearing VIP really got our meeting off to a bang."
