VMDirect
Video
E-Mail Solution
VMDirect
allows the sender of a video e-mail to upload the video to a server.
When the person receives the Video E-mail, they are provided with a
link that is embedded in the e-mail that will take them to the video
message on the company's server.
This technique avoids having to
compress a video to embed in e-mails, so that it will be able to be
received by the targeted recipient. This is especially useful if the
video is too large even after being compressed, to be sent embedded in
an e-mail.
Video e-mail by VMDirect provides the
ability to embed a hyperlink for access to the video file. This avoids
the problem of sending video messages as attachments. Video attachments
are typically too large for most people to receive or send.
Also, most
people will not open attachments to avoid the possibility of infecting
their computer with a virus. This method of sending video e-mails means
that they are more likely to be seen by those intended to view the
videos.
The video e-mail
service of VMDirect can be
used by individuals or a company to send video e-mail to their friends
and family. Individuals are new potential clients for VMDirect
companies.
There are many people who want the ability to send videos by
e-mail, especially those that want to control access to their videos.
The big advantage with this software is that it compresses the video
into a small packet of data that allows most everyone to open it.
Typical uses
of video e-mail for family and friends include:
- Sending birthday greetings
- Sending announcements of births with the new
baby in the video
- Sending graduation announcements
- Congratulations to co-workers
- A
grandchild’s first successful bike ride
- A son or daughter’s musical recital
- Greetings to military members that are deployed
in war zones
- Addition’s to the family’s pet population
VMDirect has many
applications beyond those listed above. Those who have YouTube or
MySpace websites may want to use video
email to inform persons who are
consistent visitors to their website that significant changes have been
made and what is available on the website.
Business

- Announcements of new products
- Announcements of new benefit programs and how
to apply for the programs
- Announcements of newly acquired business
ventures to employees
- Human Relations internal position announcements
- Announcements of employee promotions
- Holiday greetings from CEO to employees

Video E-mails are
becoming a very popular method of sending direct mail marketing over
the Internet.
This software program is primarily used by the
marketing industry to send videos to people for what ever they are
trying to sell.
Basically this is a new twist on telemarketing that
formerly relied heavily on the telephones.
The advent of National and
State Do-Not-Call Lists caused the marketing industry to seek
alternative ways of getting their message out.
