Tesla investors have pleaded for Tesla to begin advertising for months. <br /><br />CEO Elon Musk apparently listened to the pleas after a question on the subject from Youtuber ‘Meet Kevin’ during the Tesla Annual Shareholders Meeting at the Gigafactory in Austin, Texas. <br /><br />Musk said he is “open to trying some advertising and see how it goes.” When the crowd present there responded with a huge cheer, the billionaire said, “he wasn't expecting that level of enthusiasm."<br /><br />“Traditional marketing channels are great and it is like preaching to the choir,” Musk said, adding that “Tesla will start advertising a little to help educate potential customers who don't know about many awesome Tesla features and functionalities.”
