My favorite commercial in a while

By
Real Estate Agent

This video has so little to do with real estate that I cannot even think of a clever tie in.  No abstract principle. Nothing.  I saw it first about a month ago and enjoyed it, and then just stumbled upon it again this morning and realized that I needed to share it.  I hope someone else out there likes it as well. F.A.B.

Be as good at real estate as that pupeteer is at pulling the strings!  :)  (best tie in I could find for an amazing pupeteer!)

Jon - Funny stuff.  I think that is a seriously talented puppeteer.  Talk about soft sell!  Some of the best commercials today have almost nothing to do with the actual product, huh?

Jonathan...

I know how to tie it into Real Estate...

You could say something along the lines of "It's a Realtor doing the Happy Dance after a closing" :)

TLW...ROAR!

Just like great commercials—they never tell you until the end what the product is---yes I loved it—anything that gives me a good laugh! Plus I watch tv for the commercials :-) lol Thanks for sharing—and by the way thanks this great site. I am new and am loving it—learning everyday!!!!!! P.s. the little thingy that I can insert a pic is gone from my screen, so is spell check--I know I'm logged in--or am I.... I was going insert a thumbs up smiley Anyway---thumbs up!!! P.s.s. What's up with those long-winded hyphenated passwords? It's a good thing I used be a typist lol :-)!

Jonathan, Not surprised that you would have such a good eye from brilliant talent. The concept is marvelous and a really feel good vid. But what's behind is sheer brilliance. If I could write as well as that individual is a puppeteer, Well, look out world.
