Normal part of business, blah, blah

Don't forget Mark Zuckerberg declined an offer of a billion dollar buyout not so long ago... wouldn't it be ironic if their loans were called in and they folded

Yeah thats what I was thinking.. Fools for not selling.

Raf1 · 03-31-2009, 09:57 AM

I think they should have sold for that kind of money

grumpy · 03-31-2009, 10:12 AM

ok...that was facebook ;)

Ozarkz · 03-31-2009, 10:15 AM

What do they expect.. The only ads they have is for getting rich on google.

No ads for Nike, No ads for McDonalds.. Dumbasses.

They know ALL of the KEY marketing information of EVERY member and they don't do any name brand marketing.

When I was in school being able to target your market like the way facebook could blowed people's minds. it was unheard of... Now they don't even consider it.. morons..

They should really stop focusing on growth and get their revenue model on track. The ads alone are not cutting it, they need to supplement it with something else and get some solid revenues. It'll make borrowing a lot easier too when its backed by a profitable business.

Phoenix · 03-31-2009, 10:45 AM

Maybe if getting ad's approved wasn't such a bitch on there more people would use them more often. You can submit the same damn add 20x and it will finally get accepted. Depending on the time of day you submit of course. There is a lot of traffic there but you really have to have your targetting down and a good landing page.

It certainly takes away from my productivity. I should bill them for it.

Makes me wonder how they were going to complete the 500 million offer to buy Twitter last month had Twitter accepted. As stupid as I thought Twitter was for rejecting the offer, maybe they knew Facebook didn't have the ability to pay it off anytime soon.
