Retargeting vs Remarketing: Learn the Differences and Determine Which One to Use

Image
When you explore retargeting vs remarketing, one thing becomes clear: not every visitor to your e-commerce site or mobile app is ready to convert on their first visit. Some may need more time to decide, while others might simply need a relevant reminder or a compelling reason to return. The Baymard Institute states that the average rate of abandoned shopping carts worldwide is 70.19% , indicating that there are still a lot of consumers interested in making purchases but who did not push through. Here is where you can take advantage of retargeting and remarketing. Both approaches allow you to reach out to consumers who have interacted with your brand before, but each of them utilizes different methods and channels, the engaged audience of consumers, and various types of consumer engagement. Understanding retargeting vs remarketing helps you choose the right approach for your marketing goals, whether you want to recover abandoned purchases, bring inactive app users back, or ...

CPA vs CPL: How to Choose the Right Pricing Model for Your App Campaigns

Image
All campaigns begin with a determination of how much you are willing to pay. There are some advertisers that pay for when a user takes an action within the app. Others are paid on a lead basis when a user fills out information. The CPA vs CPL decision will affect your budget, your partner list and the kind of users you get, and thus deserves more consideration than it often receives. CPA means “Cost Per Action,” and CPL means “Cost Per Lead”. These are two sounds that are very similar and quite a few teams use them interchangeably, but they measure different touchpoints in the user journey. This guide will describe what each one is, how to get it, where the two are different and how to choose between them. Additionally, it demonstrates how a mobile measurement partner (MMP) such as Apptrove can assist in tracking both from the same data.

Why Is the Data Clean Room Becoming a DCP? From Locked Room to Open Table

Data clean rooms provided marketers with something that seemed out of reach at one time; a method to partner up with someone using data while not giving away valuable customer information. Nevertheless, as regulations about privacy get tighter and user IDs disappear, a clean room is no longer enough. Instead, marketing teams require a tech infrastructure called DCP, which stands for Data Collaboration Platform, which would allow them to use the data for creating audiences and the technology to activate the audiences. This change is already happening. According to the IAB and BWG Strategy 2024 report, 66% of data and advertising professionals are using data clean rooms in the US. But what comes next, and how does DCP change the way of working? At Apptrove , we help mobile marketers with their measurement every day. In this guide, you will find the definition of what a DCP is, how it is different from a data clean room, and how to choose the one you need. What Is a DCP? Underst...

Incrementality in Marketing to Measure the True Impact of Your Campaigns

Here’s something nobody talks about enough: Your best-performing campaign might not be doing anything. Not because the creative is bad. Not because the targeting is off. But because the users it’s “converting” were going to convert anyway. They’d already decided. Your ad just happened to be there when they finally clicked through. That’s the marketing incrementality problem. And if you’re running mobile campaigns purely on last-click attribution, you’re almost certainly paying for conversions you didn’t cause. What Actually Is Incrementality in Marketing? Incremental marketing is the measure of genuine, additional impact your marketing creates. Not reported conversions. Not attributed installs. Actual conversions that happened because of your campaign and wouldn’t have happened without it. Think about it this way. Say your campaign reports 1,000 installs this month. Looks great. But 400 of...

App Engagement: How to Measure It and Keep Users Coming Back

Image
It is easy to get someone to install your app. The difficult part is a day later, when that guy decides whether to put your app on his home screen. App engagement is a term that refers to the frequency of use and the degree of engagement after your app has been installed, and it also determines whether your acquisition investment generates revenue or goes down the drain. Depending on the study and the industry, the cost of a new customer ranges from 5 to 25 times the cost of retaining an existing one, says Harvard Business Review. The reason why an engaged user is a lot more valuable than a fresh install is that gap. This guide provides an understanding of what app engagement is, what metrics to track, how to measure stickiness, and seven approaches to improve engagement rates. On the way, it demonstrates how a mobile measurement partner such as Apptrove provides the mobile app analytics you require to view what’s working. What is App Engagement? App engagement re...
