Linda Yaccarino’s plan to turn Twitter profitable focuses on advertising revenue:
- Full-screen, sound-on video ads that are shown while scrolling through Twitter’s short-form video feed. (Soooo they're copying TikTok)
- Meeting with media partners, publishers, and talent agencies in order to woo more celebrities, political figures, and creators to Twitter in an effort to get a positive flywheel going between advertisers and creators.
- Recruiting big brands in person
Elon doesn't have the golden touch with advertisers. ad revenue’s been in the toilet since Elon took over.
Not what you want to see for a company with an ad revenue-based business model.
Time to sit back and watch if Yaccarino can execute.
