I've studied the top marketing lessons from Elon Musk you can apply in your business.
One can easily vouch for his prowess as a business tycoon. He is the closest we can ever get to βTony Starkβ in real life.
From being highly involved with SpaceX, Starlink, and Tesla, an electric vehicle manufacturing company, Elon Musk has helped broaden our horizons.
Over recent years, Elon Musk & Tesla have put tremendous pressure on carmakers that have been established for decades.
They are changing the way we buy & drive cars every day.
One of the most unique elements in this transformation is that Tesla is not spending its money on advertising like the other car manufacturers. Check this out.
Hereβs a comparison chart about Teslaβs advertising budget vs other car makers.
See how other companies spend millions on Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter?
