While some now invest in some level of traditional advertising, it’s not what made them big. As you said with Tesla, they only started advertising when people started realizing they were crap, and even then compared to other vehicle manufacturers they spend little. Go Pro used influencers and content marketing by their customers, the Dollar Shave Club made it to fame through viral videos.

I don’t know about that. Tiktok, Lamborghini, Tesla, Krispy Kreme, The Dollar Shave Club, Tupperware, Rolls Royce, Costco, Trader Joe’s, Go Pro etc all do little to no traditional advertising and do just fine.
Not that there’s anything wrong with some advertising to get the word out, but when you’re getting spammed with ads from every angle, that company starts feeling a little scummy to me.
The way I’ve always looked at it, a good product/service can typically stand on it’s reputation. If a company needs to spend millions on advertising to move their stuff, they’re probably not all that good or are overpriced. Someone is paying for all that advertising and it always ends up being the consumer.
I kinda wish all the stray/feral cats I’ve befriended would start coughing up some cash once in awhile instead of dead mice and hairballs for me.
Not sure if I am but thank you, I always try to help anyone who needs it. My buddy is terrible at fixing things, so I’ve been doing a lot of work for him and his mom.
If it was planned out and some beer was involved it would have been a lot better IMO… I had already spent the entire morning mowing my buddy’s yard and trimming trees for him, so my batteries were already low before all that happened.
Last Sunday. A friend asked me to go with him to town, normally I say no but I figured I would just because I usually don’t.
We went to town and went to a store. As we were about to leave, his truck wouldn’t start. (The starter was fried.) Ended up having to walk a mile and a half to his nephew’s place, then got a ride back to my friend’s truck, towed it to his brother’s shop, and after borrowing some tools I ended up pulling the starter off a car in the middle of a field, and installing it in his truck so we could finally head back home.
What was supposed to be an enjoyable hour or so ended up taking most of the afternoon and I ended up covered in oil and mud and sore as hell by the time I finally got back to my house.
They were always going to have one eventually with the way they kept feeding the hatred and trampling basic human rights.
Suspect may be masquerading as an anti-vax public figure in an attempt to evade authorities.
Maybe that’s just where they kept their knives before they invented sheaths.
BREAKING NEWS " Sanders calls genocide a “genocide”
Does it require proof?
Nothing they ever do requires proof… only faith.
They got hacked and forced to move to a new host LOL https://www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-exclusive-the-charlies-murderers
I just saw a post (on another site) that had an AI pic of Charlie with Jesus with the caption “Mission Accomplished.”
I replied “Cute couple. Congrats!”
I can easily polish off a loaf a day just by myself, (not that I always do) but if you include my two kids over that 24 years the final tally would probably average well over one a day.
I really wish pp would go out and find a real job already.
No kidding… I go through close to a loaf a day, a potential $25 refund after 24 years isn’t even a drop in the bucket compared to what they’ve banked from that.
Never knew much of this guy before he made a huge splash in the news, but the more I hear about him the more he sounds like one of those kids that ate glue in kindergarten.
Ya I get what you mean, it doesn’t always work out for everyone without getting the word out traditionally, but it does happen.
Personally I think advertising only goes so far before a company just starts looking desperate by saturating the landscape with ads. Maybe that’s just me tho lol
