The team at NovaTech Solutions knew they had to mark National Paperclip Day with something special. Intern, Leo Maxwell, volunteered to lead the charge, envisioning a ‘Paperclip Sculpture Challenge’ – a creative competition held at the vibrant Community Arts Center. The catch? Half the team was remote, spread across three states.
Leo initially worried about coordination. Budget limitations for the venue rental and art supplies were also a concern. He quickly leveraged Skedundee’s Zoho setup. Using Zoho Sheets, he created a detailed budget, tracking expenses and potential cost savings. Zoho Cliq became the central hub for brainstorming and team communication, ensuring everyone – regardless of location – felt included.
To manage RSVPs and event logistics, Leo utilized Zoho Backstage, streamlining registration and sending automated reminders. The biggest hurdle? Engaging remote participants in the sculpture challenge. Leo ingeniously used Zoho Meeting to broadcast a live sculpting tutorial, allowing remote teams to follow along in real-time. He even created a virtual judging panel using Zoho Survey to gather feedback on submitted photos of their creations. The winning team, remote or in-person, would receive a custom-designed trophy – ordered and tracked through Zoho Inventory!
To amplify the fun, Leo launched a social media campaign using Zoho Social, encouraging employees to share their paperclip art with a dedicated hashtag. He even drafted a charming email campaign using Zoho Campaign, inviting customers to participate in a ‘guess the sculpture’ contest. All event details and photos were easily accessible on a dedicated event page built with Zoho Sites.
National Paperclip Day Day at NovaTech wasn’t just a celebration; it was a testament to ingenuity and connection. Leo’s success underscored how even the simplest ideas can shine with the right technology.
