The wildest shit is last week I saw on twitter people asking why tf they are getting ads for some some kid's 40 minute minecraft streams

anyway his dad found out and it looks like he'll have to pay it back or he might even get fired

On the plus side, turns out if you spend $118,000 in ads, youtube delivers, youtube will push your ads. A lot of youtubers say buying ads is meaningless, that's clearly not the case.

We should make a donation campaign to help them out. The surplus can be spent on more ads.
>>
>>109825044
What was the ROI?
>>
>>109825044
They are probably trying to create a viral moment. Show the receipts.
>>
how many views per dollar spent?

The point is most people don't care if they see somebody's 42 minute ad. I remember once have a 2 hour ad and I just refreshed the page. I don't even remember what happened in the 'ad' which was just some documentary. Honestly, most people probably wouldn't even have tweeted about this if it wasn't some kid showing how high-trust society + low-iq populace isn't sustainable.
>>
>>109825080
Yeah. The "Message from Dad" thing is so fake. You're on the line for $118k or losing your job and you're making a dumb 15 minute YouTube video? No way.
>>
>>109825044
what?.. I thought they paid you for ads? is it reverse now?
>>

Read it again, slowly

>advertising doesn't work, that's why companies spend most of their budget on it instead of making products that are actually good

>>109825320
You remind me of that guy on /biz/ who didn't know you need people who buy your stocks in order to sell them

fake and unbased

I did

>>109825339
I don't know how ads work man. I had them blocked since like 2006.
and before that when ads came up in tv I set a timer and changed a channel or turned it off and went to do something else. my brain is literally trained not to see ads. when I go outside billboards may as well be noise, and if something somehow somewhere cuts through, I make a mental note and avoid buying that product.

>>109825388
i don't know how that works either to be fair.
it's not like stocks are real, just another Monopoly money later.
>>
>>109825383
For youtubers it doesn't. Advertising works when you offer something most people got no clue about because then you can exploit the liberties of market participants by making sure they're misinformed.
>>
>>109825398
You know those memes where the left side of the bell curve is depicted as a chad? That's you my fren. I meant that in the most endearing way possible.
>>
>>109825044
How hard would it be to make back 118k from getting famous like this? Profit off of it?
>>
Youtube will just cancel the bill in exchange the kid is banned from Youtube.
>>
>>109825070
his sons 40 minutes of fleeting purpose and recognition. so priceless
>>
I'm no expert but Visa/Mastercard will straight up block the transaction if it looks sketchy. 160k in youtube ads suddenly is a sus transaction especially from a company credit card that does smaller transactions.

>be having 118kbucks

>>109825456
Yeah something isn't adding up here...
>>
>>109825407
Do you honestly believe he would have 10k subscribers on his shitty minecraft videos if he didn't buy all that advertising?
>>
>>109825062
Keep an eye on this kid, he's going to do Pewdiepie numbers in no time.
>>
>>109825481
No I believe he wouldn't have those 10k subs if he was a normal person and not some kid racking up credit card debt
>>
>>109825456
my thoughts too. this sounds fake n gay.

I mean, it's monopoly money in basically videogame form where you press buttons to get more. I don't blame him. none of this stuff feels real.
>>
>>109825456
Well it could be that it was thousands of small charges
>>
>>109825627
>none of this stuff feels real.
In the end there's still a real component. That's why european gas prices currently are completely messed up.
>>
>>109825673
none of that feels real either.
also why even need gas? you can easily ride a bike in eu.
