Why Do Start-ups Spend Huge On Advertisement Instead Of Improving? by Childofthelord(f): 9:13am On Jul 11, 2021
I have noticed that in many new companies or start-ups, usually after brokering a huge deal with investors and being valued at whatmillion dollars, they venture off to spend so much money on advertisements.
Taking a closer look at these companies, one would spot that they often have bad customer service, several issues with the products, and even existing users have a lot of complaints unresolved.
[b]But their ads are everywhere. [/b]There is nothing wrong with seeking new customers and trying to get the "word" out there, but at least, fix the burning issues first, let your pre-existing customers speak well of you and that way you will earn a lot of customers through honest referrals.

Any business expert here should shed more light on this. Thank you

An example is Kuda Bank. Reviews and complaints of bad customer service, low reply to emails and password issues are everywhere even in their comment section. Agreed, not every company is perfect and their will always be bugs here and there. But refusing to fix those bugs and spending huge on advertisement is just plain misplacement of priorities, because if the new customers you acquire become unsatisfied, you will lose more money!

It is plain simple...they need numbers because numbers don't lie.
The more people you can reach @your budding stage the easier for customers or patronage retainership.

In another news if you have access to Internet + browsing gadgets and you yet earn with your online activities then you are very unwise.
There are thousands of ease2access online earning ways all you need to add to earn via online is any or all of the following;
# Skill
# Service
# Investment Capital.

For more details or consult to get details on how to earn @least $5 daily via online just reach out via the facebook Id on my profile's personal text.
BTW make sure you indicate your NL moniker in your facebook message.
