You and I both talk about search everywhere optimization, but we're big believers that you shouldn't be on every platform. And companies in marketing are taking search everywhere optimization to the extreme and being like, we need our content and our ads on every single platform. If Snap's a great fit for your audience and you can make extra $200,000 a month in profit, not revenue, and you're a large corporation, that's extra $2.4 million a year in profit. That's great money, you know? Why not do it? But people are going to the extreme and being like, oh, you're in B2B, if you're not on Quora, you're missing out. If you're not on Reddit, you're missing out. If you're not on, you know, Instagram and TikTok, you're missing out. Totally get it. There's always a percentage of people on all these networks that are your ideal customer, and you should try to be everywhere, but pick and choose the ones that are going to move the needle the most, and then work your way down the list. And you may never get to every single platform just because you can't make the economics work, And that's okay. Search everywhere optimization is about focusing on where your ideal customer is, not on focusing on every single platform because, you know, they're worth $5 billion or $20 billion. You focus on what's going to drive you the most ROI, and then you go down from there.
