Here, Matt Buchanan looks at the business behind their plan: http://nyr.kr/XO9s9H

Uber is genius.

Always question your clients' strategies :D

clientsfromhell:

Client: Let’s get rid of Facebook and focus on Google+

Me: There’s no one on Google+, it wouldn’t be a great move

Client: Google+ has a TV commercial, it’s going to be huge. Facebook doesn’t have a TV commercial.

Me: Facebook doesn’t NEED a commercial.

AD TEACHINGS: DEAR BROOK IS TALKING. PLEASE LISTEN → adteachings.com

Amen!
