With that, Donaldson did a 14-second ad promotion on his Twitter, where he compared his brand to Hershey’s, saying that he was way better even after having half of the ingredients that Hershey’s did. Sounds like a normal promotion, right? But here’s the catch. MrBeast uploaded a caption saying, “I tried to run this as a national tv commercial but apparently it’s “non-compliant” lol.”

it’s not like TV commercials are awfully bad, it’s just like you can’t properly track the conversions. QR codes are merely the tip of the iceberg… I know that you know that, but I wanted to say anyway
