The Challenges

Mobile is different from the desktop §  And it isn’t the size of the screen!

§  Mobile is an operating system - This is why apps dominate - Data is handled very differently in mobile

•  Desktop-like cookies don’t exist •  IDs galore •  Attribution is challenging

§  Desktop: client side data; Mobile: server side data - Desktop players haven’t made transition to mobile - Requires rewriting entire technology stack

Complicated Mobile Ecosystem


Specific Challenges

Getting loyal users is more expensive than ever before.

The Strategies

Plan First The big question: “How to succeed?” •  Tracking – not as easy as desktop • Metrics matter – measure loyalty (i.e. registrations, purchases), not

just downloads •  Success comes from using a wide range of channels •  It isn’t just about cost: tradeoff between cost and volume •  Your rank has an impact • Newer channels like Facebook and Twitter are playing a large role


Start with Measurement Use an SDK that supports all forms of attribution in one turnkey, easy-to-use solution. § Starting point for any performance based

campaign
