New on Apptrove: Silent Push Notifications for Accurate App Tracking

In the world of mobile app marketing, precision is of the utmost importance. Whether you are analyzing installs, optimizing ads, or measuring retention, even the tiniest data discrepancies can lead to misaligned insights and wasted effort. That’s why we are excited to introduce Silent Push Notifications. At Apptrove , we understand how important it is to have reliable and clean app data. Silent push notifications are the foundation of that precision, giving you, as an app marketer, developer, or advertiser, unprecedented insights into app usage without jeopardizing user experience. What Are Silent Push Notifications? Silent push notifications are similar in function to traditional push notifications, but they are fundamentally different. Instead of being presented to a user on their device, a silent push notification is delivered silently in the background. When triggered, a silent push notification requests the current status of an app on the user’s device. The system allows you t...

Probabilistic Modeling

In the current data-driven environment, uncertainty is inevitable. Whether forecasting consumer behavior, studying user journeys, or managing ad campaigns, you are continuously working with incomplete, noisy or uncertain data. Probabilistic Modeling provides a strong conceptual framework to work with uncertainty. Instead of just telling you “yes” or “no”, the probabilistic modeling approach gives you probabilities, which allows for a more nuanced approach to sometimes messy and complex datasheets.  As a matter of fact, a recent Gartner survey reported that more than half of organizations are now using probabilistic approaches within their analytics workflows to address and navigate uncertainty. At Apptrove , we have witnessed how this shift has allowed brands to accommodate privacy-first measurement and smarter attribution tracking.  This glossary article will dive deep into encapsulating probabilistic modeling, its methods, and applications in practice. By the end of this ...

The Definitive Guide to Dynamic Creative Optimization (DCO): Why Segmentation Makes Ad Creative Smarter

Marketers have evolved their thinking about personalization from being a performance luxury to being the backbone of modern advertising. People are inundated with countless messages from varied platforms and when confronted with those messages, generic ads rarely leave an impression. Relevance cuts through the noise and is expressed through content that feels like it was designed specifically for the end user. And segments are the first step in this process. When you segment your audience into meaningful groups based on their behaviors, attitudes, or context, it sharpens your campaigns. Instead of messages for a one-size-fits-all approach, you can create experiences that speak to audience behaviors, attitudes, and context. Dynamic Creative Optimization (DCO) takes this process to the next level. Dynamic Creative Optimization is the combustion engine of turning segmentation into performance by using DCO to revolutionize standard ad creatives. DCO recognizes that most ads represent a on...

Cross Device

The concept of Cross Device has emerged as a core way for marketers, advertisers, and application owners to understand today’s consumer and modern user journeys. Consumers today are not tied to one screen where they start and finish their journeys. Today’s consumers browse a product on their mobile phone while commuting, check reviews on their work laptop and then use the tablet at home to complete their purchase. Every one of those touch points is a step in the journey, but if a brand can’t connect them together, all these actions can appear to the brand as belonging to three different users. This is where cross-device strategies come into play. Cross-device technology allows you to identify, measure, and engage the same user across screens, ensuring you know where every marketing effort fits into the journey and it’s not disparate and fragmented, but consistent, accurate, and impactful work. This glossary will cover Cross-device: what it is, its importance, how it works, and its ro...
