The elegant but simple design of the Ski Area Screen Saver helped my company sell over 140,000 CD-ROMs, generating over $1M in sales.
At the height of sales, we had combined 107 ski areas in the northern hemisphere on the CD. It included trail maps of the world's top resorts 'synchronized' with a ticker that delivered snow reports automatically - updated 3 times daily during the ski season. There was no need to visit ANY web sites when you woke up as your snow reports were already running inside your screen saver. And, when you clicked the snow report, it automatically linked to the snow phone report so you could listen to the audio stream without even dialing a phone number, or incurring any long-distance charges.
That's innovative integration that made the Ski Area Screen Saver the most loved software products for skiers and snowboarders during the it's hey-day!
