A “messy” strategy, frequent “pivots” and overriding business model that ultimately prioritises subscriptions are all given as reasons for why “Spotify’s ad business is floundering” in a new report by Business Insider. Although, it says, “some in the ad industry think Spotify can turn its fortunes around”. The report was prompted by comments made by Daniel Ek on a recent investor call, in which the Spotify boss admitted that his company’s advertising sales have been underperforming. That admission coincided with the news that Spotify’s VP Of Global Advertising, Lee Brown, was stepping down. The streaming firm would apparently like about 20% of…
