PackExpo Chicago Follow-Up Sequence for LabelLoop
Assumptions
- Send days count from the show's last day (Nov 5), so Day 1 is Nov 6. The year wasn't given, so check the weekdays and move any send that lands on a weekend or holiday to the next business day.
- Not every scanned lead watched a demo or took a sample roll. The emails mention both lightly and rely on [Booth Topic/Note] for personal details.
- The 15% show special applies to the first printer order placed by Dec 15. I didn't add other terms, such as exclusions or how to redeem it. Add these if you have them.
- Links use the placeholders [Booking Link] and [Case Study Link], as you requested.
- The sign-off is Dana Ruiz, Sales Lead, LabelLoop. Add a phone number or signature block in your email tool if you want one.

Email 1: Great to meet you
Send timing: Day 1 (Nov 6). The booth conversation is still fresh, and you land before most other exhibitors' follow-ups pile up.
Subject line A: Great meeting you at PackExpo Chicago Subject line B: Following up from LabelLoop, booth 2140 Preview text: A quick recap from our booth, plus an easy way to see your own label printed.
Body:
Hi [First Name],
Thanks for stopping by the LabelLoop booth (2140) at PackExpo Chicago. My note from our chat says [Booth Topic/Note], so I wanted to follow up while the show is still fresh.
A quick recap if the hourly demos blurred together: our compact thermal printer and software let small food and beverage producers print product labels in-house, on demand, with no minimum runs.
If it's useful, I'll walk you through a free 20-minute virtual demo. I'll set up a label template for one of [Company]'s actual products, so you see your label instead of a generic sample.

P.S. If you took a sample roll home, try it on your current packaging. It's a quick way to check fit and feel.
Email 2: Value first
Send timing: Day 3 (Nov 8). A helpful tip a couple of days later keeps you top of mind without feeling like a second pitch.
Subject line A: A simple fix for recipe-change reprints Subject line B: One tip for keeping labels current Preview text: Version your labels the way you version recipes. Plus a PackExpo special through Dec 15.
Body:
Hi [First Name],
At PackExpo, a lot of brewers, roasters, and food makers told us the same thing: a recipe changes, and the labels fall behind.
One habit that helps, whatever printer you use, is to give every label a version that matches the recipe version. Keep one master file per product, add a small version code to the label, and keep a one-line change log. When an ingredient changes, you update one file and know exactly which labels are current.
Printing in-house makes that habit easy to keep, because you print the updated label the same day.
From now through Dec 15, we're offering a show special of 15% off your first printer order. The free 20-minute demo is the best way to see if it fits [Company], and I'll build a template for one of your products: [Booking Link]

Email 3: Proof and specifics
Send timing: Day 7 (Nov 12). A week out, leads are back in their routine and ready for concrete details.
Subject line A: How in-house labels skip print minimums Subject line B: What a small-batch label day looks like Preview text: A typical example for a roaster, brewery, or small food brand, plus the full offer.
Body:
Hi [First Name],
Here's a typical example. Say a coffee roaster adds a new seasonal origin. With a print shop, that can mean a minimum order, a proof cycle, and a wait. With LabelLoop, they open the existing template, update the origin and details, and print the exact quantity they need that afternoon.
The same applies when a brewery releases a limited batch, or a food brand updates an ingredient and needs a new nutrition panel. You don't pay for minimum runs, and you don't sit on a stack of outdated labels.
You can see how other producers use it here: [Case Study Link]
The offer is simple. You get a free 20-minute virtual demo with a label template set up for one of [Company]'s products, plus 15% off your first printer order if you order by Dec 15.

Email 4: Objection (switching effort)
Send timing: Day 12 (Nov 17). By now, interested leads who haven't replied are often stuck on "this sounds like a project," so it's the right time to address that.
Subject line A: Worried about switching label setups? Subject line B: Who handles labels at [Company]? Preview text: Moving labels in-house is a smaller step than it sounds. Here's where it starts.
Body:
Hi [First Name],
When we talked about bringing labels in-house at PackExpo Chicago, a common worry was the switch itself: new hardware, new files, and someone to learn it.
That's why our demo starts with your product. In the free 20-minute session, we set up a label template for one of [Company]'s items. You walk away knowing what the setup looks like before you commit to anything. The printer is compact, so it doesn't need a dedicated print room.
Sometimes the person I met isn't the one who manages labels day to day.
