IMO this is an abuse of monopoly power. Either Google treats its own promotions the same way everyone else does, or it must sell/spin off Gmail.

Marketing Twitter will have people thinking if they aren’t a CMO by 30, make $175k a year, have time to play Wordle daily, don’t own a rental and aren’t running an affiliate site part time that they’re a failure.

Stop letting the internet play with your emotions.

Do you.

Anyone working in Growth would ask “what drove this?” as a natural reaction.

Don’t get me wrong. I think Twitter will improve and thrive.

But saying “numbers are up!” without adding a WHY means you don’t know or it’s not due to something you did.

The wrong way to conduct message testing:

The right way:

What's unclear?
Who is this for?
How interested are you in the value promised?
Why choose this company over others?

From a neurological perspective, we feel better in pursuit of a goal than we do once we’ve achieved it.

The culprit? Dopamine.

But there's a better way to a get a fix of our favorite neurotransmitter.
