1/ We just announced @MoPub is being acquired by @AppLovin. Since we acquired MoPub in 2013 we’ve grown the business significantly and it became a leading innovator in a crowded and competitive industry. prnewswire.com/news-releases/…
2/ This decision was certainly not made lightly, but it does mean that we’ll be able to better focus on high impact areas, such as performance ads, professionals, small and medium businesses, and commerce that will push Twitter to new heights.
3/ It will also give MoPub and their customers the opportunity to flourish with the singular focus that AppLovin can provide. We believe AppLovin is well-positioned to continue to grow and invest in MoPub, as well as deliver exceptional service to their customers.
4/ I’ve always been impressed by MoPub’s grit and resourcefulness in a complex industry. An eternal thank you to the entire team who put their hearts & souls into their work - your commitment and passion is truly inspiring and we’re all grateful for you. 💙
👋 everyone! Today we shared some of the awesome work from Twitter’s Ads Product team over the last year or so, and I’m excited to share a lil 🧵 of it with you now! First, read this 👇 adweek.com/programmatic/l…
There are millions of businesses, professionals, non-profits, publishers and creators on Twitter. As @iamjameelg says, we need to make it easy for them to onboard, and we also need to make sure they can promote their Tweets in a quick and frictionless way 🏪
That’s why we rebuilt Quick Promote, our most popular self-serve ad tool. This is live in the US and will be available globally later this year 🌍
I had a couple of reactions to this statement. More in terms of how teams work because I think this notion of “the CEO runs the company” is flawed ... full disclosure, I work for @jack@twitter
The CEOs job is hire the management team. The management team runs the company day to day. The team is held accountable to deliver against agreed OKRs. That’s the first point - this is very much a team effort.
It’s not that simple tho. You can’t just hire talent; you have to build a team from that talent. Create an environment they can perform in. Get the balance, dynamics, personality right. This is artistry that you can’t learn from a book imho
