At "Pixel Perfect Productions," the team was buzzing – it was National Raisin Day! But with a shoestring budget and half the team working remotely, organizing a fun celebration felt like climbing a particularly sticky mountain. Sarah, the marketing intern, was tasked with rallying the troops.
“How are we supposed to celebrate with just a few dollars and people scattered across time zones?” she lamented in Cliq, Pixel Perfect’s internal instant messaging platform.
Luckily, Pixel Perfect had recently partnered with Skedundee to streamline their operations with Zoho. The team used Zoho Sites to create a simple “Raisin Day Appreciation” webpage, showcasing fun raisin facts and a virtual photo booth. Zoho Campaigns was used to send personalized email invites to key clients, offering a virtual “raisin break” – a short, fun video showcasing the team’s creativity. Sarah created a simple budget spreadsheet in Zoho Sheets to track expenses, ensuring they stayed within the allocated funds.
"The biggest challenge was coordinating the remote team," explained Mark, the project manager. “We needed a way to get everyone involved, regardless of location.” Skedundee stepped in, helping them automate a Zoho Forms survey to gauge team preferences for a virtual “raisin-themed” game. Zoho Meeting was used to host the game, and Zoho Invoice was used to track and pay for a small batch of gourmet raisins delivered to the in-office team.
The result? A surprisingly successful National Raisin Day celebration! Everyone felt connected, the budget was respected, and the clients were charmed. “It just goes to show what a little creativity and the right tools can do,” Sarah smiled.
