I already run UA. Why do I need retargeting?

The average app loses 77% of its DAUs within the first 3 days after install. Without implementing retargeting campaigns, 77% of that app’s UA budget is essentially going down the drain (Appsflyer study).

Do you provide creative services?

We offer custom creatives and custom pre-launch analysis. Our in-house studio can develop ads of any format but specializes in playable and video ads to maximize performance.

Why is retention important to growth?

Users try out a lot of apps but decide which ones they want to stop using within the first 3-7 days. The key to success is to get users hooked during that critical first 3-7 day period, and then keeping them engaged long term.

The Future of App Retargeting: How to increase LTV in a post-iOS 14 world

By Margot Miller · 1 minute read

We chatted with Business of Apps and Product Madness to discuss the future of app retargeting and how to increase user LTV post-IDFA.

In the wake of iOS 14, what does the future hold for app retargeting? We sat down with experts

Alexei Chemenda, MD & CRO USA at Adikteev
Krisztina Simon, Growth Marketing Lead at Product Madness
James Cooper, Director, Business of Apps

to discuss how Product Madness, a leading casino gaming app publisher, is coping with the impact of IDFA on app retargeting.

One takeaway: the future lies in cross-promotion

Krisztina shared with us that Product Madness is focusing on cross-promotion to continue engaging their users. For her, the future of app retargeting is likely to involve engaging in cross-promotion strategies to leverage high value users across an app portfolio.

When engaging in cross-promotion, the data science team at Product Madness determines a churn score to find out which users are likely to leave their app and when in order to engage them with a new one. This allows publishers to maintain a high-value app audience and reduce churn by re-engaging users within their own portfolio.

All app retargeting strategies are measured by cost per re-engagement and incrementality. The goal is to get an accurate measure of how effective their re-engagement campaigns have been. It’s essential for publishers to find the right moment to begin running incrementality, which Adikteev can help with.

Alexei revealed that 78% of our clients that run multiple apps have added cross-promotion to their OKRs. One year ago, this wouldn’t have been the case. With changes to iOS, it’s clear that app publishers are branching out into new territories in app retargeting. We believe it’s essential for marketers to start considering cross-promotion as changes to iOS become more and more entrenched.
