[kictanet] Mocality closing down?

[robert yawe]

Phares,

It is not that online advertising does not generate enough revenue but that the organisations have the wrong expense model for the corresponding revenue.  I am aware of a number of businesses that make enough revenue from online advertising to meet their overheads.

If someone earns 10,000/- and then they develop expenses of 30,000/- is their inability to meet their expenses a result of the low pay or are they just plain living beyond their means?

Regards

Online advertising doesn't yet generate enough to maintain most
business overheads. Sadly.
