Was considering buying ads on ChatGPT. A damning thing is that yours audience then are users too cheap to buy a sub...

That's a problem with most unsolicited online advertising. Are YouTube ad-watchers any more likely to splurge on your SaaS?

  • It's slightly different though, considering a lot of ad spend is for B2B products/services, and a lot of work pay for ChatGPT, so its only people who's work won't pay for a pro subscription.

    Whereas, YouTube is for personal consumption in almost all cases, doesn't say anything about your employers willingness to invest in software/services

Just like mobile apps, subs will never come close to the growth expectation. Given trillions are tied up in AI, subs aren't going to do it.
