We’ve often heard the phrase “It’s a marathon, not a sprint”. But for an app launch a sprint can be a powerful tool.
Burst campaigns are a key mobile advertising tool. They help drive app discovery by catapulting apps into the top charts, and this momentum can spark a surge in organic growth that’s more valuable than a campaign executed over a longer period of time.
Gain eyeballs
With over 3 million apps in mobile app stores, getting your app noticed is a huge challenge. Recent studies show that over 65% of users discover new apps by browsing the app stores.
A high-ranking app will be discovered much more easily - and burst campaigns are carefully designed marketing ad spend plans tailor made for this purpose.
If executed successfully, such campaigns lead to exponential userbase growth and a cost-reducing, organic uplift.
They can spur the growth of a new app or rejuvenate the user base of an existing one to prolong its life cycle.
