Home Movie Depot, Inc. Opens the Holiday Season With Timely Marketing
Campaign
Online home movie transfer company partners and promotes with the help
of As Seen on TV, Uptone Pictures and Sentimental Journeys
ASHLAND, Mo., Nov. 2, 2007 — Next time you open a package from As Seen
on TV, Uptone Pictures or Sentimental Journeys, don’t toss the box.
Instead, take a closer look inside because you’re in for a nice surprise.
Home Movie Depot - www.HomeMovieDepot.com/ - the online destination
where consumers and professional videographers have their family movies
digitized into DVDs and archived online - is promoting services and
exciting incentives through a four-color flyer, which will be included
in all As Seen on TV, Uptone Pictures and Sentimental Journeys
shipments. Home Movie Depot has just partnered with these three popular
companies in an effort to market its state-of-the-art home-movie
digitization. The campaign kicks off this October and runs through
December, hitting an estimated 2.6 million households just in time for
the holidays.
“We’re thrilled that these great corporations have joined in our mission
to give more families the chance to celebrate their memories and share
them with friends and family,” said Gerald McKinney, president of Home
Movie Depot. “We foresee a very successful campaign because of the sheer
number of people we’ll reach during our busiest time. We do about 40
percent of our business in the last quarter of the year - mainly because
people need a reason to have their home movies transferred. The giving
of holiday gifts is that very reason.”
“We further expect these strategic marketing efforts to play right into
our sales efforts for our hundreds of business partners and affiliates
across North America. These efforts, combined with the recent opening of
facilities in Xalapa, Mexico to serve our Latino customers are certain
to continue the growth of our domestic and international sales,” said
Chris Force, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Home Movie Depot
will continue to service all of our US customers domestically.”
While Home Movie Depot is the nation’s largest Internet-based
digitization provider, it has also earned a solid reputation as the
premiere site for editing and archiving movies for safekeeping online.
What’s more, Home Movie Depot offers high-definition film transfer,
using highly efficient LED light source, rather than traditional light
bulbs. Also of note, the company is introducing its “Home Movie Depot
Store” for selling home-movie products and video editing software and
hardware. This, in addition to the latest holiday marketing campaign, is
one of many efforts Home Movie Depot is making to grow its product and
service offerings.
