- Linda Yaccarino said staff must deploy "hand-to-hand combat’ to win back advertisers, per the FT.
- The Twitter CEO’s remarks follow the NYT’s report that Twitter ad sales have fallen 59% in a year.
- Some brands have been ensuring their ads don’t appear next to Elon Musk’s tweets, per the NYT.
Their using a women to be their fall guy. Kinda like what reddit did. Watch her leave after a few months. I think elon should have kept his mouth shut and not buy every company just cause. He should’ve stick with space ex and tesla and be a genius CEO, or what they were calling him. The guy is stupid.
The only reason that he seemed like a “Genius CEO” with SpaceX and Tesla was because those companies had layers of management dedicated to protecting the company from Musk.
If Musk marched into Tesla and decided that all Tesla cars should have eyeball shaped headlights, managers would tell him what a genius idea that was and that they’d get right on it. Then, they’d distract him with something else while the idea went in the trash can.
Twitter has no such management layer so every Elon Epiphany becomes Twitter policy no matter how bad or destructive it is. SpaceX and Tesla were successes despite Musk and Musk gained his “genius” reputation because those companies were able to filter out his idiocy.
Yet reportedly he IS the cause for Tesla self-driving to be far inferior now to any competing company, fucker went against the advice of his engineers to save money on sensors, so not even those companies were safe from him, i wonder what fuckups are on SpaceX that we don’t know of yet
Why couldn’t Elon just busy himself with making a submersible to go see Titanic?
Dad, don’t get me wrong. I don’t think he’s a genius. But yeah, with regard to the level of management in which he was buried in those companies - yeah, they greatly protected themselves from him.
I just find it such a waste that he could ruin the greater reach of people that twitter has and they are using a woman for it!
On top of being a stupid blabbering flog, he went on and become himself!
buy ads on a platform that forces a login to just view tweets? That’s some sudden change most people aren’t prepared for. in my opinion many will stop going; how are they going to make this profitable?
Apparently “hand-to-hand combat” means to meet in person. The corporate lingo is killing me.
Sales have fallen 59% in a year… Musk took over 9 months ago… weird coincidence.
Won’t be long before this escalates into a full blown military conflict.
