The Metal Motivators are Life Coaches with a Heavy Metal twist! On their recent tour they branded their Flip Mino’s and filmed the backstage goings ons. When a video is released I’ll feature it.
If you have a group or service then why not let your Flip advertise your brand whenever you’re out and about with your Flip camera. It’s like a mini-billboard.
