Do you think Elon Musk made the right choice, trimming Tesla's headcount and firing the entire marketing team? In what areas does Tesla lack in advertising?

Exactly correct, not only do the vehicles sell themselves because they do everything they were expected to do, (promises made redundant!), just this reason has built the momentum of/by Word of Mouth, and that has kept production engaged with anyone who judges by quality over price/quantity.., i.e., if you are getting more than you could expect anywhere else, it's worth working harder to cover the difference, and this universe of quantization calculations is all relative-timing Difference Potential. (According to Ada Lovelace and Babbage's Engine)
So 15k workers fired? Let’s say $100k/yr each. Saving $1.5B/year. Not bad, until you realise the compensation package that Elon wants is the equivalent of all those peoples’ wages for 37 years. Let that sink in. Seems wasteful.
Tesla needs to make its service much better. Only satisfied costumers will advertise their products to friends and family. Gaining new consumers is expensive so it makes sense not to loose them. Lots of costumers have been pissed off by really bad service, at least here in Germany. That’s unfortunate! Building up reputation by giving at least a good service is paramount.
There seems to be 2 ways for Car Manufacturers to make money. 1. Make large, expensive truck-like cars, and sell them at a high price. (Ford, GM) - ultimately , the average Joe can't afford them. 2. Make a smaller vehicle, at an affordable price. (Not Ford or GM).
I couldn’t agree more with you that Tesla does not need to pay MSM and other competitors for advertising. I have owned Tesla vehicles, S, P3, and now Y since 2015. And I have always opposed this call for advertising.
The very first ads this team created did not do what he wanted. The biggest selling point was supposed to be to educate and counter all the false narratives regarding EV's. Most of the media is still quoting stuff that happened with EV's 10 years ago or longer. That is a like a hundred years ago in this case. They went straigt to standard automotive ads. Boom.
Are you sure? So why, as Tesla reduced prices, did the jump in sales seem temporary - and why did Tesla ultimately have to look at throttling production? It’s almost like Tesla needs to do something else to change perceptions around the brand and the product, and change the buyer’s mind? If only there was something else that Tesla could do? Perhaps that could stimulate demand?
The average person buys used cars. Used EVs are 💩 All used electronics are 💩 Which is why most tech companies offer refurbished products. Can't afford the new iPhone 100, buy the 99.
Finally. Root out the people who are antithesis to your core beliefs. You need to advertise. You have your own Tesla platform you provide information and details of your EVs. The technologies and benefits. You have insights of your EVs no advertising agents and agencies can convey. Create contents to educate you customers and potential customers. Talk about the future directions the company is heading and how it’s going to benefit them beyond The Green mantra, but how Tesla’s products and ethos reflect their needs and it’s the best products on the market. Tell a story how Tesla can and have created not just the future but brings back the fond memories of the ‘50s, ‘60s when the automobiles provided freedom of mobility and wholesome family experiences and Tesla’s mission to fulfill and revive that spirit. Your products will sell to the greater public NOT ONLY because it’s green but it brings back the American spirit.
Your logic is great. However, the battery technology is not where it needs to be for EV to become a major player in the auto industry. Gasoline and Deiesel is not going to loose the market for the next 50-100 years. The automobile manufacturers are being subsidies by our Federal Government. IDK about TESLA. Therefore, the EV'sis not going to become a major market share holder anytime soon.

You just did a great job of giving us an overview of their underlying marketing strategy. And yes, to date it has worked very well indeed. The trick moving forward is positioning to the mainstream audience outside of the influencers you note and for that, as you rightly suggest there are multiple inputs to process.For example, most people still perceive Tesla as a high end, premium, premium priced product. Truth is, as you state, you can get a Model 3 today for nearly the cost of a higher end Camry. So there is more to do here to get this part of the message across. Another> Most folks are still hung up on range anxiety, no matter how many Tesla Superchargers there are and that they see. Paid advertising could help here, with a focus on driving (no pun intended) word of mouth from normal folks in terms of how easy and extensive the coverage is, and how easy it is to charge at home, which you have drill in to to figure out. Etc. Etc. So I guess re: paid advertising for the Car... lesson learned. That's not where the game needs to be played. I would argue however there is opportunity and high potential reward to support going to the next level sales wise, sooner than later with a different more strategic marketing perspective using advertising on a different more focused level. This would also address Elon Musk's comment about the ads looking, sounding the same as everyone else. He is right there. They really do need and can go down a different path.
The only problem is that you run the risk of disheartening employees. Of people have job insecurity they tend not to work as hard, and leave if another job with better job security comes around.
"The only problem is that you run the risk of disheartening employees. Of people have job insecurity they tend not to work as hard, and leave if another job with better job security comes around." The people left are the best performing ones on the other hand.
I disagree, for if I worked for a company that lays off people that under perform I would work harder and smarter and prove to the company that I am an asset and not a liability. In most very successful non-union businesses they lay off 5 to 10% of their workforce every year or so after their annual review of staff performance and hire other staff to take their place to improve productivity. And so it should be for if staff under perform that means that they need to find another job elsewhere where they can perform well. And if they don't perform well at any job that is just a sign of lack of personal discipline and/ or laziness.
@@yourcrazybear ask the employees who are paid highest $$$$$$ for a fairs days work. AND gets to keep every 💰💵💲🤑not forced paying to corrupt union “bosses” and enforcers. Better work environment, better benefits, and …oh… did I say a better work environment? Not to mention TSLA stocks. NONPRODUCTIVE DEADBEATS are dead weight.

What this doesn't raise is that the majority of wages in the US are double that of other countries... probably due to all the various insurance costs... Nonetheless, the rest of the world is not as financially "well-off" and also doesn't receive tax credits against purchasing EVs. Yet they still dig deep into their pockets to own an EV... imagine the global uptake if they were on the same playing field...!
Musk agreed to try a little advertising, and it didn’t go anywhere. Good idea to trim the fat in a tight year. Maybe they’ll try again with a different crew when the new products are released.
Elon Musk not only fired Tesla's marketing team for under performing, he also fired his super charging team. And this makes perfect sense in business for if you are not a financial asset to Tesla you become a liability. Tesla's super charging equipment has already reached its full potential in development and all that is left is install these super chargers in various locations where they are needed, which does not require an expensive super charging development team, but site construction teams. What Elon Musk does well is do cost benefit analysis wherever this is needed. Media marketing for Tesla, unless it is target specific leading to greater ev sales, is a waste of money. Tesla has proven it can grow sales fast without media marketing by just delivering great products consumers buy. In the end Elon Musk and his Tesla brand will continue to do cost benefit analysis and create lower labour and production costs together with higher efficiency vehicles that consumers want. It is the only formula for business success!
Tesla has always had a back-to-basics marketing/ awareness strategy....advertising does not seem to work for them.....i also like their strategy regarding affodability...fusing existing facilities with next-gen methods and technologies....hoping for a model 3 hatch/model y vanette in the interim
A workforce is over manned to start and then trimmed to the best minimum. If you are lucky and learn fast you have a long term job. Production is underway and profits are boosted, from the loss making soft start up of the production line. It happens all the time in non union workforces. Good part is some quit and and the sacked worker can get the job back. A rough start but the business is alive and can survive.
Sure, like laying off employees as they are going to work won't peek the interest of those left to maybe consider Unionization? Plus, demanding $56b to "do his job" makes Elon look bad.
I think they need to advertise the price of the vehicles...so many people still think they are very expensive and they also need to educate people on the fact that the batteries last more than 10 years.
ELON: Please bring Quicksilver back to the Model S and X!! I love my 2018 Model S (Quicksilver) and will buy a new Plaid when I can get it in Quicksilver!!!
It’s probably the algorithm, but I get videos on RUclips of quality’s problems with Tesla’s almost daily. They outnumber the good reviews . I can’t tell now if a Tesla is a 😮good car or not. Clearly their technology is great, but …
Advertising is not the same as marketing or salesmanship! Only Engineers would think they are and unnecessary… Tesla has no market research …. That is why they make only sedans When most of the marketplace wants & buys SUVs, mini vans, hatchbacks & real pickup trucks for which they don’t really have any! Can the general public really tell a model 3 from a Y or an S or a X at 65 mph…. Tesla has a real problem selling used Teslas they take in trade so they must send thousands to special early morning “secret” dealer auctions by the thousands every week? Can you believe they only show stock photos & not photos of the actual used you are ordering online with a non- refundable $250 deposit on that unseen $30-50k used car 🤷♂️ even if the have a car your interested in locally you absolutely can’t actually go look at it It is a company run my nerds for nerds Snd it is starting to show.
Tesla’s market research needs considerable improvement. They have placed too much focus on acceleration which appeals to a very small audience. They have missed the pickup truck audience who tows and given that away to Chevy Silverado which is nothing more than a very big battery. If you want to hear why EV adoption has hit a roadblock, simply ask your friends, relatives, and acquaintances. It’s not rock-science: range anxiety; cost; charging challenges; cold weather degradation; etc. Tesla needs a model 2. But I disagree with OP, S3XY are not all sedans. X & Y qualify as SUVs, while Y is a small suv and closer to a crossover.
True - acceleration may only appeal to a small sub-set of vehicle buyers but once someone has a taste of it - they don’t want to go back to a laggy low acceleration experience. Still - much of what is pretended to be “marketing” is really nothing more than a media procurement department - not real marketing.
I think that we are missing a point. Everyone knows about Tesla but only a few people knows it's price. When I tell people that I got a Tesla most of them tell me that is really expensive, over 60000 euros. 😳. Tesla should advertise their price to ley know people that it is not that expensive. Many thanks.
I believe if the potential buyer is serious the consumer can very easily find the cost of the car via the internet and TESLA's website. Tesla should create more content on their website. Advertise, if you will, on their own website. Provide insight into their products and the benefits of the new technology built into the vehicle. In doing so, they can educate the potential buyers and debunk the "lies" and "misconceptions" the "media" created. The Omnipresence of the web is where Tesla can "educate" and "debunk" the lies and distortion of the "media".
What do you tell them after they say that? This is also one area that the media loves to write about how Tesla slashes prices. Because investors hate it. But consumers love it.
The only reason he sent that up was because one of the real founders of Telsa was forced out because Elon and part of the deal was he got the first Tesla . Being a spoiled brat his whole life he put the car in space so he would not have to honor a contract he negotiated and the real founder of Tesla would never get it . But imagine being a worker at Tesla Putting up with the poor pay , having to work holidays because Elons poor planing , putting up with double the work place injuries as all three auto makers combined only to have this billionaire go to China and tell the Chinese people How lazy American workers are . A Tesla is a mark of shame and blind worship . Thankfully the younger generation Does not have the same blindness
@@venomdust1 you’re OBVIOUSLY a UAW mouth piece.

Such a genuine personality!!, Sincerely speaking. I will continue to trade and stick to Angela Danielle daily signals and guides as long as it works well for me🇮🇪😇😇
I'd be excited to. Nothing say winner like reducing head count via email while securing a 55 billion dollar compensation package. At some point Tesla is going to have problems hiring. Rage firing the supercharger division is a sure sign that all is well.
Elon is only somewhat omniscient. Unfortunately, few folks selling and advertising know how to relate to the average person; too far removed. What's important? Affordability, convenience, safety, fun, and/or value? How do you get eyes to look at those advantages in a Tesla. When was the last time six or seven-figure people had to deal with everyday realities? Give people good tech improving their lives and they'll flock to it. Afterall, it's not an automobile, it's a Tesla! So much more.
You clearly get it and hit the nail on the head with your explanation of advertising. I did a complet 180 from thinking that EVs and Tesla has saturated the market with no growth left, to placing an order for a new Model 3 after my son bought one. I think Tesla is going to dominate all vehicle manufacturers.
@@TMIOTesla There were multiple reasons. I ordered the Model 3 Performance because of the value for what you get. 0 to 60 in 2.9 seconds for less than $56K. The home Wall Connector is so cool and convenient. I have a Lexus RX which has mostly been reliable but the dealership has not provided a good experience.
Institutional investors like Gerber, Mertz and Black are old school singleminded thinkers who know nothing about anything other than counting beans, and since the $100 days have spent all their time bashing Tesla, Elon and the strategy all the while torch and pitchfork style calling for adverts. Well once again, Elon was correct with his thinking and showed that with paradigm shifting disruption legacy mentality is prehistoric. However, to Elon’s credit, he did listen and conducted the experiment. As far as lack of adverts; no lack at all. The humans that understand will do a great deal of the work converting. A large portion of converts will do a great deal as well. Pseudo intellectual liberal types and uninformed conservative types won’t have much choice in the matter once legacy auto goes under. Tesla haters will eventually bend back once they experience competitor offerings or there aren’t any competitor offerings. My only fear in this scenario is once the world truly realizes just how much disruption Tesla is and will cause, they will collaboratively destroy the operation. We need to concede that stupid rules this planet and when it concludes they are being removed from the cave permanently, they will retaliate.
If elon would focus on talking about Technology and not preaching his child like knowledge of Politics...Elon was the Brand and then talked Politics and trashed the Brand...and the sales dropped off.
About marketing. It is About brand and model 2 is not fitting in easy when it is not luxourios sporty car as other Tesla cars are so there will be no lower end car than model 3 branded as Tesla. Other cars have different brands but built by Tesla. Also it is dangerous to run cybercab under tesla brand. So in few months restructuring may happen similarly to google ->alphabet
As a manual laborer in a different industry that makes total sense. We can be replaced much easier than the handful of leaders in the AI industry who are getting offers from competing companies regularly
Are you suggesting bricklayers, garbage men, potato pickers, road diggers etc that are easy to find command higher pay than the high acheivers who are blessed with brains, acumen, rare abilities and are thin on the ground.

Wierd , spoilt , clever but very dumb at the same time.... he's bound to wreck Tesla sometime. (he didn't even found it .. though he's desperate to pretend he did).
I'd probably do better job on security then his team but I like tesla light shows and anything having to do with space so I guess Ill never get past the imposters😆 Click something of Elon and get a bunch of creeps in your inbox eww🤣 They wish they were real 😂 What if I had ever met these imposter strangers in person and they just took my life and had thier way with me? Would Elon care then that this is happening with his Imposters? Image if the creep I'd encountered had done this to me or another fan, customer, or employee, or family member? It needs to stop and Elon has to regulate something to reach all social media platforms and the gov and even FBI should be helping to protect you and your fans dispite the differences because as Americans we all have the right to safety and well being please kindly get on to fixing this before it's too late and check those SpaceX and Tesla email of my warnings ⚠️

Still - much of what is pretended to be “marketing” is really nothing more than a media procurement department - not real marketing.
Who needs a human marketing team when AI can create sales and marketing for free?
🤯
I think that we are missing a point. Everyone knows about Tesla but only a few people knows it's price. When I tell people that I got a Tesla most of them tell me that is really expensive, over 60000 euros. 😳. Tesla should advertise their price to ley know people that it is not that expensive. Many thanks.
I believe if the potential buyer is serious the consumer can very easily find the cost of the car via the internet and TESLA's website.
Tesla should create more content on their website. Advertise, if you will, on their own website. Provide insight into their products and the benefits of the new technology built into the vehicle. In doing so, they can educate the potential buyers and debunk the "lies" and "misconceptions" the "media" created.
The Omnipresence of the web is where Tesla can "educate" and "debunk" the lies and distortion of the "media".
What do you tell them after they say that?
This is also one area that the media loves to write about how Tesla slashes prices. Because investors hate it. But consumers love it.
Time for SpaceX to send the CyberTruck up like they did the Roadster! But hopefully, this time with cameras and solar rechargable batteries!! :) 😊
The only reason he sent that up was because one of the real founders of Telsa was forced out because Elon and part of the deal was he got the first Tesla . Being a spoiled brat his whole life he put the car in space so he would not have to honor a contract he negotiated and the real founder of Tesla would never get it . But imagine being a worker at Tesla
Putting up with the poor pay , having to work holidays because Elons poor planing , putting up with double the work place injuries as all three auto makers combined only to have this billionaire go to China and tell the Chinese people
How lazy American workers are . A Tesla is a mark of shame and blind worship . Thankfully the younger generation
Does not have the same blindness
@@venomdust1Wow! So hate much?
@@venomdust1 you’re OBVIOUSLY a UAW mouth piece.
Why is it that the “Union Bosses’ live high and mighty and stealing from your Union pension funds, and you’re jabbering about TESLA workers, with vested stocks options, comparing, to your dingy and dreary plants? TESLA line employees make 4x your pay.
That CHAPS your lethargic @$$ doesn’t it, bozo?!?!?! 👋👋🥸😗😝😜🤪
I'm favoured, $60k every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America.
Wow! Kind of in shock you mentioned expert, Angela danielle crowe. What a coincidence!!
Angela Danielle has really set the standard for others to follow, we love her here in the UK as she has been really helpful and changed lots of life's
Life is easier when the cash keeps popping
in, thanks to Angela Danielle Crowe services. Glad she's getting the recognition she deserves
I use to work 3 jobs, full time at Walmart, a server at night and Lyft on the weekend, untill angela danielle crowe change my story.
Such a genuine personality!!, Sincerely speaking. I will continue to trade and stick to Angela Danielle daily signals and guides as long as it works well for me🇮🇪😇😇
Glad you're back @TMIOTesla 😘
I'd be excited to. Nothing say winner like reducing head count via email while securing a 55 billion dollar compensation package. At some point Tesla is going to have problems hiring. Rage firing the supercharger division is a sure sign that all is well.
Elon is only somewhat omniscient. Unfortunately, few folks selling and advertising know how to relate to the average person; too far removed. What's important? Affordability, convenience, safety, fun, and/or value? How do you get eyes to look at those advantages in a Tesla. When was the last time six or seven-figure people had to deal with everyday realities? Give people good tech improving their lives and they'll flock to it. Afterall, it's not an automobile, it's a Tesla! So much more.
You clearly get it and hit the nail on the head with your explanation of advertising. I did a complet 180 from thinking that EVs and Tesla has saturated the market with no growth left, to placing an order for a new Model 3 after my son bought one. I think Tesla is going to dominate all vehicle manufacturers.
Wow, what was the thing that changed your mind?
@@TMIOTesla There were multiple reasons. I ordered the Model 3 Performance because of the value for what you get. 0 to 60 in 2.9 seconds for less than $56K. The home Wall Connector is so cool and convenient. I have a Lexus RX which has mostly been reliable but the dealership has not provided a good experience.
Working for a nervewracking CEO, worried about losing your job every second? Must be fun. He must get the BEST work out of them, right?
Institutional investors like Gerber, Mertz and Black are old school singleminded thinkers who know nothing about anything other than counting beans, and since the $100 days have spent all their time bashing Tesla, Elon and the strategy all the while torch and pitchfork style calling for adverts. Well once again, Elon was correct with his thinking and showed that with paradigm shifting disruption legacy mentality is prehistoric. However, to Elon’s credit, he did listen and conducted the experiment. As far as lack of adverts; no lack at all. The humans that understand will do a great deal of the work converting. A large portion of converts will do a great deal as well. Pseudo intellectual liberal types and uninformed conservative types won’t have much choice in the matter once legacy auto goes under. Tesla haters will eventually bend back once they experience competitor offerings or there aren’t any competitor offerings.
My only fear in this scenario is once the world truly realizes just how much disruption Tesla is and will cause, they will collaboratively destroy the operation. We need to concede that stupid rules this planet and when it concludes they are being removed from the cave permanently, they will retaliate.
If elon would focus on talking about Technology and not preaching his child like knowledge of Politics...Elon was the Brand and then talked Politics and trashed the Brand...and the sales dropped off.
Yup. Liberals were his base, then he comes out for Trump. What a moron.
The web site only seemed to show up to cal 22. No 2023 annual statement eg tsla, Roku. Am I wrong?
You are right, I will update it now that the report are out. If you click on 'quarterly', it goes into 2023.
@@TMIOTesla cheers!
I think Elon needs to extend the free v12 FSD program so more people can feel it.
Every dip stock price is a gift from the fools, whomever they are.
About marketing. It is About brand and model 2 is not fitting in easy when it is not luxourios sporty car as other Tesla cars are so there will be no lower end car than model 3 branded as Tesla. Other cars have different brands but built by Tesla. Also it is dangerous to run cybercab under tesla brand. So in few months restructuring may happen similarly to google ->alphabet
I don't get paid to put up with this and began to stop following Elon all together and I just wanted training and a tesla or SpaceX job.
If a company is on top of AI they don’t need a marketing department that size.
Too late. Needing more EV adapters.
Sorry I haven't sold my Tesla stock much earlier
Sorry you bought TSLA stock at all. Now go buy GM. Baah-bye...don't let the door hit ya...!
May the force be with u😂❤
40k car is for masses?
2:11 raised salaries of AI people who work in comfy offices vs disposable backbreaking manual laborers 😡🖕
As a manual laborer in a different industry that makes total sense. We can be replaced much easier than the handful of leaders in the AI industry who are getting offers from competing companies regularly
Are you suggesting bricklayers, garbage men, potato pickers, road diggers etc that are easy to find command higher pay than the high acheivers who are blessed with brains, acumen, rare abilities and are thin on the ground.
A NOVEL IDEA, HOLDING PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR FAILURES! NUFF SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He being copied by dangerous imposters tricking woman into fake dating scams and end up being threatened with thiers life and yes I have surely survived thousands of these creeps
Bad move with the AI just more copying of Elon and some are making money in his name his identity making 30k+ daily
Wierd , spoilt , clever but very dumb at the same time.... he's bound to wreck Tesla sometime. (he didn't even found it .. though he's desperate to pretend he did).
He does not work 120 work weeks lmao
The Electric Jesus is cutting heads, but I don't think it will help his stock market price. It's going down down and deeper down.
Thumbnail implies 15,000 in Marketing team were fired. Wrong.
Grata conhecimento e vida nos liberta Deus no comando de tudo
👍
I ll mass share
👍💯
I'd probably do better job on security then his team but I like tesla light shows and anything having to do with space so I guess Ill never get past the imposters😆 Click something of Elon and get a bunch of creeps in your inbox eww🤣 They wish they were real 😂 What if I had ever met these imposter strangers in person and they just took my life and had thier way with me? Would Elon care then that this is happening with his Imposters? Image if the creep I'd encountered had done this to me or another fan, customer, or employee, or family member?
It needs to stop and Elon has to regulate something to reach all social media platforms and the gov and even FBI should be helping to protect you and your fans dispite the differences because as Americans we all have the right to safety and well being please kindly get on to fixing this before it's too late and check those SpaceX and Tesla email of my warnings ⚠️
He needs to shut uo
