Comp Nerdz's confoundingly funny and compellingly whacked-out commercials are made on the cheap, in-house, by VP of marketing Rob Lewis. At a sliver of the average ad budget, these ads still rival anything produced locally. Just check out their co-op promotion with Blazer Lazer tag, where a dutiful nerd, ably assisting a family in need, gets grabbed by the tag-bound kids, who shout, "Mom, can we take the nerd, puh-leeeeez?" Then there's that credit card ad homage with the suave nerd emerging from his vehicle to the voiceover, "Watch: $16,000. Shoes: $19.95." And as he reachs the client's front door, "Someone who can help you with your computer: Priceless -" That's exactly what we said. Oh, and Nerd fans: Check out their sexy porno-soundtrack hold music.
