Get help with that jingle you don't need
Digital marketing firm EVB has created Tommy Silk and The Jingle Generator to promote Intuit's QuickBooks accounting software. The basic idea seems to be that all businesses need jingles to connect with customers. Does Apple have a jingle? Does Nike? Intuit has Tommy, an shaggy-wigged, '80s-style music producer eager to lend a rockin' hand. He's even on Twitter. He says "rockin' " and "rocks" a lot. More than I do. And I say "rockin' " all the time, usually in an Austin Powers accent way worse than Tommy's. I'm so lame. So was the jingle the site generated for me, but I assume that's the point—and at least I spent five minutes not hearing about the Olympics. The organizers of the Beijing Games should try generating a jingle with Tommy. "Ode to the Motherland" just doesn't rock, particularly when lip-synced.

So glad to hear you enjoyed the jingle! We've been having a lot of fun working with 80s producer Tommy Silk and his people. For those of you who haven't created your customized jingle to the catchy song "Your Love" by The Outfield, what are you waiting for? All you have to do is visit the site http://thejinglegenerator.com , type or phone in your company’s information (name, address, and business type), and the Jingle Generator will do the rest. Rock out with it!
