Interactive Christmas
This year Christmas cards are huge for us. After having to turn so many people away last year, we got on the ball this year and started making cards this summer. Honestly, I am having a great time with all of this. All of the cards are published out of Macromedia Flash CS3, but are published back a few versions so that the maximum amount of people are able to get ahold of these cards and view them.
We did two options this year, allowing people to purchase either the custom cards or the "personalizable" cards. The custom ones are built from the ground up, such as the 2007 Ashland University card, the 2007 EMI Music Publishing card, and the 2007 Student Loans Express card. Over previous years, we have also made the 2004 Ashland University card, which has over 7 MILLION VIEWS, and is getting about 500,000 hits a day right now. Last year we sent out our 2006 Red Red Design card, and that is still going crazy on the hits.
The personalizable cards allow users to submit a message, greeting, logo and links that we incorporate into the card. No, this is better than a Hallmark eCard, and we have put many hours in here to make them look very good. Check them out here:
