According to Adage writer Vinny Minchillo, the “beauty of TV and radio advertising is that when your spot is running, you own the channel. You have someone’s undivided intention.

One of the benefits of having a daily vlog channel (see definition below), is you can drop in subtle product placements or promotions for friends — but still do proper sponsored videos on the core channel.

If you know Greg Benson, Mediocrefilms and Mediocrefilms2, then you’ll squeal with delight in discovering this vintage piece.
