One of the most visually interesting videos that I've ever seen. With 18,829,717 hits, it just goes to show one the power of interesting video.
What I took away from the video is what they say in the "hook" of the song…
Let it go – This too shall pass, when the morning comes. It's a good motto to live by. Applying it to internet marketing, one could translate it as…
No matter how many times you've failed,
let it go. Or in the words of Donald Trump…
"Never, never, never never, never give up."

An interesting video (and the song's not too bad either). What I get from this is two fold.
Firstly the whole process is started with one simple action, the movement of a toy vehicle. This could be taken as a statement that taking that initial action is the most important step.
The other lessen learned from this is how the whole process is made up of small steps, on their own they may not seem much but each one is vital to the whole process.
We can compare this to internet marketing (or any other similar task like writing a play). When you begin the end goal will probably seem near impossible. But you can make the job easier if you approach it in small manageable steps. Of course the most important step of all is getting started.

Business lesson to take away:
When you are creating a marketing message, people enjoy a good STORY.
This video is actually a four minute story with plenty of twists and turns … where you are always asking "what happens next?" And by the time you get to the end, you are primed to receive the message ("this too shall pass")
So when creating messages,
