Marcus Thomas and the Best Digital Holiday Card Ever

Holiday cheer? Holiday awesomness? The more creative-digital-holiday-christmas card I have ever witnessed?

All of the above. Congratulations to Marcus Thomas!

I became acquainted with Marcus Thomas after speaking at their offices in 2009-2010. I loved the company the first time I stepped foot into their offices and I have loved them ever since. Enough about that, let’s talk about this digital holiday awesomeness!

Here’s what happened.

1. I received a tweet from @AllisonPeltz:

I clicked through on the link. What is this MTHolidaycard you speak of and how can I win a prize?? I had to find out and gave them my email. Later, I received an email about joining the fun!

I made sure that I was online at the given time and clicked the “take a spin” button.

Amazing! Spin the wheel of holiday destiny! Once you clicked “take a spin” it asked for your name, email, and twitter account. The video feed was live using UStream and the host said my name, “Kyle are you ready for a spin?” I said yes… and then was instantly embarrassed. The host launched the wheel and I landed on a $100 donation to a local charity. Awesome time and an awesome gift. I received this email right after the spin.

Of course… I replied with a strong – DONATE IT!

A standing ovation to Marcus Thomas. What an excellent way to show the capabilities of the firm while building holiday fun and cheer. I love it.
