    They don't have the budget. They can't afford the fancy advertising agency to help them and the production staff isn't the best quality. Add it up and you have local TV. Great commercial don't just happen they cost millions, usually.

    1)If they do it themselves or let one of their creative friends do it, the result will often not reach the level of a professionally made commercial.

    2) even a small local advertising agency will often not reach the quality of the best commercial experts. But remember that these expert are usually very expensive

    3) on the other hand, sometimes the experts can make errors. While they are looking for very provocative new ideas, because the old ideas do not sell anymore, the result could be only feeled as a provocation, and only few people will get the message. (and sometimes, any publicity is better than no publicity!)

    Here some example of sites with such commercials (and they are not from small local businesses, I think):

    People that work in the industry start out in ,what is called ,small market areas.This is where the training starts and the mistakes are made in many areas of production.As one works their up they move to bigger cities and have more professional performances.
