#375 - A Clever Customer Tip + Season's Greeting

Here's our Christmas video for you, and what about a video for your customers?

Spend 60 seconds to watch, and the secret sauce is below...

The great service at Animoto lets you upload photos, choose music and in a couple of minutes they've mixed it into an animated video just like the one above. A 30-second video is free (the same as a commercial), and a few dollars if you want one that's longer. Choose from dozens of themes (not just Christmas), from simple to fancy, and plenty of different music tracks - email it to a customer, or upload it to your YouTube channel.

Use this as a customer bonus: if you host parties or special occasions, this would be a great value-add for the organiser - no reason why they couldn't leave with something like this on a DVD (or by email), and post the YouTube to your Facebook Page for extra traffic.
