And for what, they probably ate through a few blenders, didn't hire any expensive actors, and probably had a heck of a lot of fun! Of course, it follows human nature to enjoy watching things be destroyed. A demolition company could probably make similar videos. Unfortunately not all of us have products which can destroy stuff. =) Blendtec now has a worldwide known brand because of these videos.

If you don't reinforce your brand when you make entertaining commercials, you have not had a successful campaign even if you have had millions of downloads. My favorites include the Garmin Christmas commercials, and the Mac vs. PC commercials. Vi Wickam http://www.Zello.us Online Marketing for Small Business John is right on the money here.

Many of these viral videos end up like those TV commercials for banks and insurance cos. Very funny, entertaining, but afterwards you can't remember which bank - or maybe it wasn't even a bank after all. Or was it a hospital plan ? Another great article, Jeff.
