For
Tampa businesses seeking satirical video promotion

Field notes

The sample campaigns feature a man said to have lived in Busch Gardens’ parking lot, McNuggets stolen from a Dale Mabry McDonald’s, and a Buccaneers cannon noise complaint. The proposed workflow lets a client review the script before production, then provides a 60–90-second video for TikTok and client reuse. The $500 package carries a 5,000-view guarantee, with paid promotion used to cover a shortfall; performance figures on the page are self-reported.
