The Impact of Product Naming
The name given to a product can significantly influence its perception and success in the market. A case in point is the initial name 'skippable ads,' which alienated potential advertisers by implying that their ads could be ignored. Upon renaming it to 'TrueView,' the focus shifted to paying only for ads that were actively viewed, aligning with the interests of advertisers. This rebranding transformed the product from a low priority for the sales team to one of the most sought-after offerings, leading to rapid growth and revenue increase.
