As a Sr. Strategist, what are the benefits of going platform side (insta, snap, fb)? Does it get too sales-y? Is it worth exploring?

Do it only for the money, it's dumbing for a strategist and actually often counter-strategic work since everything you're doing is supposed to sell the platform.

I have a feeling you're not the strategist there, often - but it really does depend on the role.

If you go to a platform, try having some influence on their product strategy. Sure, you're selling the platform but you should be able to relay some important feedback to your product team. You should work with brands as beta partners and do some cool shit. Write some case studies.

I'm trying to go there myself.
