Dallas’ LERMA/ Agency Produced 3 Commercials for This Year’s Super Bowl

It's a big deal for an ad agency to get one commercial into the Super Bowl, where 30-second spots this year are running for $7 million a pop. But during this year's big game, Dallas-based LERMA/ Agency will be cheering on three different spots it produced. According to the Dallas Business Journal, LERMA/ produced a :30 spot for Irving-based Avocados from Mexico, and also said "Action!" for a 30-second and a 60-second spot for "He Gets Us" a Christian ad campaign funded by what Christianity Today calls "a small group of wealthy anonymous families."
