All of those items are tax-free as is, so it’s likely you’ll see an upswing in business this weekend, anyway. But, you could offer even more savings to your customers, and remind them of the items you sell that are included in the tax-free weekend sale. Draw them in by announcing your sale via video invitation. If you already keep in touch with your customers through email, it’s simple. Just record your video and edit it using a free video editor -- we recommend iMovie for iPhone users or Androvid for Android users. Then, upload your video to a video messaging company like Inviter, where you can send, track and RSVP with one click!
