The announcement comes two days after Linda Yaccarino took over as the new Twitter CEO. The move was aimed at freeing Elon Musk to focus more on Tesla and SpaceX, amid plunging ad sales of Twitter in the US. The dip was 59 per cent in April and May too did not look promising for the firm.
Yaccarino had been the chair of Global Advertising and Partnerships at NBC Universal. She updated her bio as Twitter CEO on LinkedIn. Twitter's US advertising revenue for the five weeks from April 1 to the first week of May was $88 million, down 59 per cent from a year earlier, IANS reported quoting The New York Times. "In internal forecasts, the company projected that ad sales would keep declining, handing a tough challenge to its new chief executive," the report noted.
"I've long been inspired by your vision to create a brighter future. I'm excited to help bring this vision to Twitter and transform this business together," she posted on Twitter tagging Elon Musk. I'm just as committed to the future of this platform. Your feedback is VITAL to that future. I'm here for all of it. Let's keep the conversation going and build Twitter 2.0 together, she commented.
