If Agritek were smart... Hold on... Let me start again. If Agritek were of at least of average intelligence, they would see that they have stumbled onto an obvious marketing angle that could separate their Mont Blunt brand from the rest of it's e-cig / vaporizer competition.
At first glance, signing Tara Reid to an endorsement deal seems uneventful at best. "Sharknado"? Who really gives a s***? Right? But wait a minute. Tara Reid is "Bunny Lebowski" from the movie The Big Lebowski. Arguably the top stoner movie of all time. Forget about Sharknado. The Lebowski angle needs to be played to the hilt.
Think about it. A vaporizer with a pinky toe end (green nail polish and all). Call it the "Bunny Blunt". Run a video ad on the website with "Viva Las Vegas" playing in the background. I'm not joking. What the Hell. Something different. Am I wrong? Do something to take advantage of the fact that Bunny Lebowski is the face (or foot) of Mont Blunt. At least for the time being.
And don't stop there. How about a purple one featuring a pinky finger with a long, painted nail called "The Jesus"? Or one using a bowling pin in some fashion. An ivory colored vape called, you guessed it, "The White Russian" would work as well. The possibilities are truly endless.
If you've seen the movie, you'll remember this scene where Walter is trying to convince The Dude that the toe they have in their hands, sent to them by her abductors, is not really Bunny Lebowski's. Walter maintains that it's not that hard to come up with a toe if you need one:
Walter Sobchak: You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me.
The Dude: Yeah, but Walter...
Walter Sobchak: Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish. These f***ing amateurs...
Agritek would have to deal with infringement issues and such but I'm confident that their crack marketing staff could handle it.
Oh,and here's another little tip for Agritek:
Keep B. Michael away from TV cameras, audio interviews and any other form of media that puts him out front.
He is clearly, in the words of Walter Sobchak, 'Out of his element' and needs to, 'Shut the f*** up'.
