@eric_seufert It’s not in Meta’s incentive to disinter-mediate the big retailers out in muse. Not only do they bring them along for volume and customer trust it also expands inventory for their Ad Business.
@rexsalisbury Even if Meta Muse managed pull $1 trillion of GMV per year it would only translate to $3B for them. Muse infra cost alone be 2X of that for such scale. Ads is the better business model for agents.
@trikcode Yelp’s approach makes sense, why should that info be free. Don’t be cheap just pay the fees and let your agent do its job. Upselling to agents is totally fair.
