Sometimes Honesty Isn’t the Best Policy

Internet funnymen Rhett & Link made this commercial for Cullman Liquidation, and I think that, even though it’s fraught with stereotypes and humor, it’s a real commercial for a real local company.
Rhett & Link created a site called I Love Local Commercials, as a platform for them to create low-budget videos for small town businesses that normally don’t consider video as a marketing device.
It’s a smart move for two guys who got some street cred from Hollywood, but famously live in North Carolina, where buying a house is cheaper.
It’s a good example of making your skills work for you no matter where you live. That you don’t have to live in Los Angeles to make good entertainment (but it helps).
