Sales StrategyObjectionsIn a half-face or full-face to supplied air or PAPRsituation, obviously those are two completely differenttypes of respirators. We are going from negative topositive respirators. Sometimes they have never tried aloose fitting style respirator. It is the sales team’s workto really portray those benefits for a loose-fit style.Going from half-face or full-face negative, to a loosefitting style positive pressure, you no longer need fittesting. Increase comfort (cooling/heating features).You have less clean up. Many objections are based onjust never having used one before.“Oh that seems too technical, to set up a supplied airsystem. That seems like a lot of work.” With half facestyle, there is not a lot of work to do. You have to startthinking about how you are going to set that up.Obviously with a supplied air system there is acompressor. There is more of a set up process in thebeginning. Is the compressor able to providebreathable air? Some of these bays can be quite long.125’ long. We start talking about PSI going through longair lines to operators. Air line drops, etc. Sometimes itcan get technical in the beginning. If we can provide aresources. Somebody as an engineer or someone who canthen moving up the chain to the supervisor.

The cooling devisce itself is a plastic material.That cooling device heats up so much that it can burnyou around the side. For RPB, the air vents away fromthe respirator. We have cone some recentexperiements to ensure this is true. All in all, ourrespirator, as far as the lenses go, there is betterperipheral vision on the blast hood, you can see moreto the left and right, there is also better downwardvision.Coating - main competition is 3M. Also Bullard in someareas for the coatings market. Honeywell. When itcomes down to paint respirators, we’re just better. Thematerials that we use for our hoods, we use a lot ofDupont materials. They are the best materials as far aspermeation goes. With using a high quality material, itprevents rips and tears, improves overall comfort. THesystems inside the hoods are some of the best systems,engineered carefully with the operator in mind.Welding - we compete with all the leaders in thewelding market: Lincoln, Miller, 3M. These are the maincompetitors for RPB. Lincoln and Miller get into thefabrication applications, because they are selling the gas(Airgas, etc.) they throw in the respirators sometimes. Onceyou get an RPB respirator on, its a no-brainer, you want toswitch.In coating and welding you want to focus on the style of theair supply to the operator. Whether it is a PAPR system orsupplied air. You can compare these systems once youbreak it into coating and welding.Sales reps that have been successful in my distributorshave been the ones that took RPB reps on calls.
