Recently Best Buy approached me to run an ad for their new online trailer for the movie “Soar.” I watched the trailer and found it entertaining (I hope you’ve all clicked on it and seen the trailer; it is hilarious), so I agreed.

Best Buy tells me they’ll have a new campaign after Soar and I’m welcome to just keep the ad placement running. The money’s good, provided people are clicking on it, so I’m hoping they’ll do another fun trailer like this one. (I know people won’t be clicking on banners for a boring camera ad.)
