October 27th, 2009 by jamie
CoVideo is upgrading to a Cloud Server so the videos you send will play back better than ever! We are transitioning the storage and delivery of our videos, uploaded through the online interface, to Rackspace Cloud backed by the Limelight Content Delivery Network.A CDN is a computer delivery network structured to maximize bandwidth for data access by clients within the network. Clients access data from a local source instead of a centralized location, thus reducing or eliminating bottlenecks. Back-up redundancy and instant redirection can provide availability even with large power, network or hardware outages.
A Cloud Server offers scalability according to the resource needs of customers and alleviates worries of usage spikes and traffic demands. In other words, our customers will experience more reliable, consistent and faster delivery of their videos.

More and more dealerships are finding the internet, and specifically video email, an effective way to reach customers and drive sales. The September issue of Auto Dealer Monthly.com highlights one such dealership, Acton Toyota of Littleton, Mass. Their internet department is innovative and courageous, yet deliberate and thoughtful in crafting a marketing plan. In the following excerpt from that article, see what Acton Toyota had to say about the benefits of video email from CoVideo.
[With the help of a company called CoVideo, a salesperson is able to drop a video into an e-mail template containing a frame that can be customized with the dealership name and various hyperlinks. “It’s branding our dealership and our department,” said Brun. Many of the salespeople have webcams on their computers and can put together a video right from their desk, introducing themselves and using that customer’s name to personally thank them for their inquiry on a particular vehicle. Brun said the personalized videos have gotten a very good response.]
