So a business that requires bulk advertising to recruit both drivers and riders (in the U.K. Driver recruitment is one of the most common radio adverts on commercial stations) could survive without advertising..

Given that I saw my first tv advert for uber last weekend (focused on rider recruitment) I suspect that instead of cutting advertising costs uber will have no choice but to continually increase them over the years
