As a marketing fanatic, I can’t help but grieve the loss of one of the greatest marketers… ever. Billy Mays was the loudmouth who would wake you up with his infomercials late at night if you forgot to turn off the TV. Big and bearded like a loveable lumberjack, Billy always came off as a humble and caring person if you ever had a chance to see him outside of a commercial. I’m not sure if even OxiClean or the Awesome Auger will enjoy the same kind of success without their famous spokesman.

Here’s some of Billy’s best…

Rest in Peace, Billy. I’m sure they need some Orange-Glo in heaven.
