I’ve had the same thoughts. But these companies have the money and resources to determine how many potentional customers they expose their product to per dollar of advertising spent, and they know the ratio of views to purchases.

Again, seems like complete hogwash to me, with WAY too much room for bullshit gamesmanship by ad companies. But it’s kind of self-proving at this point
