Review: Go Daddy Holiday Email Review

I expected to have received many more Christmas emails / Holiday e-cards by now. Sure I got lots of sales messages from Amazon, Buy, Verizon, Palm, etc. But I want a non-solicitation message wishing me the best. This is what I got.

My rating system is simple. By default, these companies get 1 star just for taking the time and effort to send me a stand alone Christmas/holiday email message.

You get another star if you have something interesting to say or pretty animation for me to look at.

Today’s review:
Go Daddy ( 3 stars )

Subject: A special holiday message from GoDaddy.com

Dear Roland Reinhart,
All of us at GoDaddy.com wish you and your family a happy holiday and a fantastic New Year.
All the best,
Bob Parsons
CEO and Founder
GoDaddy.com

Season’s Greetings from Godaddy.com

IMHO: This was the first cool email I got. It’s got a high energy feel, a dancing snow man and a rockin Brian Setzer tune. Thumbs up to Go Daddy.

Advice to Marketers: Next time, send me something like Go Daddy did or this. It’s hysterical and fun. And a lot more memorable than any of the above.

Merry Christmas!
