Stubby Screwdriver ad on YouTube

[Thomas A. Fine]

Is there a reason why the ad on YouTube for Stubby doesn't mention lttstore.com at all?  There's no link to click on, no qr code to scan, nothing.

 

I'm asking here, not picking a fight.  Do we just assume that people will google it?  I guess I could see that you might want a broader audience who buys the screwdriver from Amazon and never even learns that it's a "Youtuber" or worse an "influencer" product.  But as far as I know, Stubby isn't on Amazon yet.

LTT never sells on Amazon, must be a fake thing. They only sell on LTTstore.com

Some items ARE sold on Amazon. Linus has addressed it on WAN show. "if you HAVE to have two day prime shipping, you can pay the extra few bucks to get it through Amazon"

IIRC they mentioned something on WAN about how they are part of some YouTube store program where you can buy products through YouTube under videos?

Could have something to do with that but I could also be completely wrong here.

Yup, I've got a JEFFY-BUCKS GC burning a hole in my wallet for a while now and effectively $50 off screwdriver makes it super appealing.

As others have said, LTT does use Amazon to ship some items.

Yes, they do sell some items on Amazon but the same item is sold on LTTstore.

Nobody really addressed why there's no lttstore.com mentioned in the video.  On the TV (where I first saw it) I looked for any links that were associated with the menu, so like the down arrow would let you do more interactions but that was basically just "report this video" sort of thing.

 

On the computer the ad appeared, and under it there is an "Order Now" link.  But when I click on it, it just takes me to the shorts viewer, and shows me the ad there.  But again, no link to buy this from anywhere.  (Sure, if you go to the channel page, lttstore.com is the first link.  But that's indirect.)

 

Seems like you might sell more screwdrivers if you make it easier for people to buy them?  Maybe the answer is that these ads are only targeted to subscribers so it doesn't matter?

 

(Side Note: I already bought a stubby so it's classic InterWebz that after making a purchase, you see non-stop ads for a product.)
