Goth Vibes & Team Fun!
At Obsidian Analytics, the team was buzzing with excitement – it was nearly World Goth, and marketing intern, Raven, was determined to throw a celebration that honored the aesthetic while uniting the remote and in-office staff. The challenge? A tight budget and coordinating a team spread across three time zones.
Raven started with Obsidian’s Zoho Cliq, creating a dedicated channel for planning. She used Zoho Forms to survey the team for their preferred activities – from a virtual bat-themed trivia night to a spooky playlist collaboration. Feedback poured in, revealing a surprising desire for a shared “mood board” showcasing goth-inspired workspace decorations.
The budget was a major hurdle. Raven created a detailed spreadsheet in Zoho Sheets, meticulously tracking potential expenses. She used Zoho CRM to identify and reach out to local vendors offering discounts on decorations, leveraging email campaigns via Zoho Campaign to finalize deals. A virtual workspace design contest was proposed, using Zoho Sites to build a dedicated page for submissions and voting.
To ensure everyone felt included, Raven used Zoho Meeting to host a planning session where team members could share ideas and offer support. Zoho Bookings helped schedule individual meetings to finalize vendor contracts, all e-signed via Zoho Sign, streamlining the process and saving valuable time. Zoho WorkDrive ensured all creative assets were readily accessible to everyone, regardless of location.
“It was amazing how Zoho’s suite of tools helped us overcome those initial roadblocks,” Raven exclaimed. “We managed to create a genuinely memorable celebration that fostered team spirit and showcased our collective creativity.”
