>>Mailings to prospective customers are less than effective in this situation. Experience says that this is a visual, person to person sell.<< You're right. The book I was referring to was speaking in reference to software sales, not service marketing. But in our initial efforts in the architectural animation side of things, their figures were right on, although it was across a mailing that consisted of only a little over one hundred pieces being mailed. And yes, of course, mail isn't enough. Each letter/package/sample was followed up by a phone call. I simply haven't finished the "official equation" out to the fifth try, and that's my fault. >> I have had success with integrating real video clips, time stamped to animated backgrounds to add credibility to the "animation", master clocking the whole thing together so the jury sees an "in sync" view<< Sounds like excellent methodology. I didn't see your name listed in Rick Miller's list of forensic animators. Tell us a little about what you do, if you don't mind, and would you be interested in receiving my questionaire and contributing to the magazine article I am preparing on forensic animation?
