quote:cutting cloud services and extra server space Uh, okay. Technically possible, I guess, we could cut it down to a few gigs extra left and reduce the processing 50%, and you'll need to alter the contract, just promise you won't get mad when it all stops working in a few days.

IBroughttheFunk posted:Hahahaha, the hits keep on coming. The downside of not advertising on twitter is I can't stop advertising on twitter. Also, the advertisers yanking spend on this means what I've known for 6+ years, the ROI on Twitter is dogshit and anybody advertising there is seeing marginal results and this is the impetus for them to go "yeah, lets give up on "unlocking" twitter"

Barudak posted:The downside of not advertising on twitter is I can't stop advertising on twitter. Most of these big campaigns fell under the nebulous "brand-awareness" umbrella, which have notoriously hard to capture KPIs. There's no way Audi has ever been able to correlate twitter ad-buys to consumer behavior at the dealership. General Mills might be able to, but even then. There is no such thing as ROI for these campaigns. All that really matters is that the ad budget is spent and that the C-Suite see evidence that the ads are getting pushed.

Those dumb dumb former managers at Twitter were like "Just spend a billion dollars a year more than we need to who gives a poo poo" and business mans Elon comes in and says "Hey how about instead of doing that we save a billion dollars a year" the guy is a goddamn genius.

Barudak posted:The downside of not advertising on twitter is I can't stop advertising on twitter. It really depends on your product but for lots of companies advertising on twitter, fb, etc are horrible from a pure conversion funnel perspective. In one large company I worked for, our CVR excluding social traffic was around 1.5% but our CVR on social traffic was .02%. Our CMO had convinced the other executives that it did not matter how little it made but that social advertising was just about impressions and brand presence and $ don’t matter. That company is now in a massive financial crisis. Make what connections you will.

There's no way Audi has ever been able to correlate twitter ad-buys to consumer behavior at the dealership. General Mills might be able to, but even then. This. There are valid arguments to be made for good brand awareness campaigns no immediate ROI but most companies don’t do that. Marketing just uses a bunch of bs social metrics to justify why they need $100M and Friday’s off. Saltpowered fucked around with this message at 00:52 on Nov 4, 2022 |

There's no way Audi has ever been able to correlate twitter ad-buys to consumer behavior at the dealership. General Mills might be able to, but even then. For sure on the brand KPIs. Most are going "oh poo poo these nebulous, meaningless results could now be construed as reaching racist idiots, we don't need these". A very small number are going "yeah we lose .20 cents on the dollar with them, so gently caress em for real its never happening". Twitter paid for my Hamilton tickets so we'll always have that, even if I cut them next year because, you know, why would I buy something that demonstrably loses money and has no hope of recovering it?

Why would a major car brand want to advertise on twitter now anyway? gently caress it, there's tons of other advertising opportunities that aren't owned by a guy they're in competition with.

I was gonna say the longer you keep him engaged there the more he's wasting Tesla engineers' time on Twitter but then again that's less time they have to somehow manage to make Teslas even worse so idk it's a tough calculus

The first, I can't think of a faster way of driving off your precious celebrities that you're relying on for engagement. The second, preventing that, and the subsequent lawsuits is why you had verification in the first place. Honestly that's way crazier than 'just find a billion dollars in savings'.

Even if he wanted to fight bots he couldn't. Some of the worst are the crypto spam bots and there's no way they could target those without catching a bunch of real crypto nerds in the crossfire, which is a 100% overlap with his cultists
