20 quid says he was kinda banking on people being tragic enough to buy a blue tick
Not even buying, but renting a blue check. And apparently over 20% of twitter users would do that.
The strategy should be maximal support for the most ridiculous of the monetization ideas, then not paying for anything. Can I hear $25/mo?
He is the entire marketing team. And he got an insane amount of free press from the liberal media. Over the last ~15 years, he probably got billions of $$$ in free marketing.
They’re the people your board members talk to when they’re considering firing you
If I got the opportunity to yell at him in person, I'd also be playing minecraft, so to speak
:thinking-about-it: would you pay for... using a gif?
:thinking-about-it: would you pay one penny per letter?
:thinking-about-it: would you please give me a gun with one bullet? i'm pretty sure i've made a mistake
When the crypto scammer realizes he’s been left holding the bag :shinji-screm:
I think this is the actual play here. There's about 32 million small businesses in the USA. if only 1% of them get verified for $10 a month for 12 months, that's $38,400,000 a year. Add in a "Narwhal Bacon" tier for 30 and he could clear 100 mil/year for it. Marketing budgets are just ongoing sacrifices to Mammon anyway, so he could milk the shit out of it.
100 mil/year
Almost a third of the interest on the loan Twitter took to buy itself for Elon.
lol how do you have a Masters's degree+ level of debt as a billionaire like just don't sign the paperwork.
Make brands pay for advertising
allow myspace effects on user pages if they pay for it (snow, rainfall, background), make them one time only purchase like seasonal skins in games
Done, you’ve saved the insolvable bird
If I ever become super rich I'm giving my lawyer a taser and an express legal written requirement to tase the living shit out of me if I act like this.
Obligatory:
- Sell blue checks
- ???
- Profit!
I'm-a doing a capitalism ovah here! :AyyyyyOC-big:
