Gifts on wheels: Use Inviter to car shop for your special graduate

With graduation season among us, see how Inviter.com can help make car shopping easy for you and your special graduate.

It’s graduation season, and if you’re the parent or close relative of a high school or college graduate, you’ve probably fallen victim to subtle hints about a shiny new 4-wheel graduation present: a new car.

If you agreed to said hints, you’re one step closer to being that graduates favorite loved one ever! Only one step, though, because that award is based on how satisfied your graduate is with your purchase. Even with the months (or years, in some cases) of subtle hints, buying a car for someone else can be a brutal process. It can often be trying to find the perfect mix of taste/preference, affordability and reliability. Fortunately, you have video greeting technology on your side to help with your decision.

Multiple options

Whether you’ve been searching for a while or just started car shopping, giving your graduate options to choose from is the best way to manage their expectations while gauging their taste. Use a video greeting, or a series of video greetings to show them the cars you have in mind and come to a mutual agreement. You can shoot the video right from your cell phone or tablet, upload it to a video greeting site like Inviter.com, and send your video via email in a flash. It’s quick, easy, and everyone’s happy.

Get the family involved

Does your family enjoy voicing their opinion s into every choice you make? Do you subconsciously need their approval before making huge purchases? Don’t feel guilty – it’s common. And with a video greeting, you can do just that. Take everyone on a virtual test drive of the options you have in mind for your grad. Upload your videos and email them to the jury, er, your family members with the weightiest opinions. Take a family vote, and make a purchase of which your clan can be proud.

The big reveal

If you’ve kept your decision to buy a car for your grad a secret, what better way to surprise them than with a video greeting! Shoot a video of yourself in their new ride and email it to them while at the celebration dinner, or, send your salutations and well wishes and allude to a big surprise waiting outside. Either way, it’s a different and suspense-building approach to their most anticipated gift.
