There are always multiple ways of measuring growth in social media platforms. Most appropriate here for Pinterest are total user growth and average revenue per user. On the former metric they are performing well but stagnating somewhat due to the reputation of being gendered (very light on male representation). But the latter metric is where they especially need to increase in the international market. And the primary way to do this is to cater to advertisers first and foremost, and prove why their platform is worth investing ad spend into.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”KEEPING UP WITH 2020 TRENDS” title_align=”separator_align_left” el_class=”h4″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”12655″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/6″][vc_column_text]Ann Marie Bell

“Finding the right blend with an overarching strategy for the greatest amount of your potential target, and then customizing that to drive frequency to compel action is critical in 2020.. The political window will also impact placement due to FCC-regulated access to airwaves, which will require mass appeal marketers to think differently.

In the meanwhile, we can test, test and test again for deliverability.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”ADTECH: IN-GAME ADVERTISING” title_align=”separator_align_left” el_class=”h4″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”9666″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/6″][vc_column_text]Matthew Giardino
