If you are producing a useful good or service would you honestly prefer to market it pre-Facebook? The volume, price and ability to focus narrowly on only the people most likely to care... It's worth a lot to a lot of makers.
- ptr_void 9y agoI don't doubt facebook's usefulness to many companies and online only businesses.
- thinkfurther 9y agoIf it's worth so much to so many people, why can't people simply accept that there are also people who find all of it useless and highly unimpressive? Yeah, I would like to market pre-Facebook. In exactly the same way I wouldn't want to advertise with Stalin, no matter how effective his apparatus. I bet you there were people who couldn't understand that either. My life is a painting. I already have brushes and paint, and while I could of course use more and better brushes and paint, there are also those offers to shit all over my painting for a truckload of generic, lame colours, and thousands of stamps with all sorts of shapes designed by "professionals", because making those with your own brush is just too hard. I say no to that, that is a net negative value for me. I don't live to earn money, I earn money to live. FB is right out. As the song goes: you might win some but you just lost one. Nothing more, but also never anything less.
