None. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well none with any real efficiency that\u2019s for sure. The truth is, it\u2019s really hard to find an effective retargeting solution for <strong>mobile apps<\/strong>, especially one that goes beyond fancy CTR metrics. We\u2019ll delve further into this later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, what if you were to take your smartphone in your hand right now. Swipe a few times and let\u2019s count the number of apps sitting there, dormant. You\u2019ll see the incredible opportunity that lies into such a marketing strategy. If correctly executed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>It\u2019s time to challenge the way in-app retargeting is approached. &nbsp;<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Yesterday\u2019s in-app retargeting was ruled by \u201cyes or no\u201d event-based audiences, such as: \u201clet\u2019s take all the users who\u2019ve been inactive for +30 days and then, let\u2019s just\u2026<strong> show them an ad, again<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This assuming that 100% of an audience that shares one characteristic will bring the same value to your brand. This is not true. Consumer behavior is not that binary and brands are losing big opportunities by solely focusing on the age old binary methodology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, it\u2019s time for the industry to stop assuming that our fight against fraudulent traffic is over after the billing of UAC campaigns. Brands\u2019 UAC budgets relies on engagement metrics and the bad guys know that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You basically just need a few lines of code to make a robot come back to your app and reopen it every day during one week to make it look <strong>legitimate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The worst part is that you will include the device ID of that robot within your retargeting list and keep spending real money on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Event-based audiences don\u2019t work for in-app retargeting. The truth is, the entire audience refinement methodology must be <strong>redefined<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, a new generation of in-app retargeting products is emerging, more <strong>efficient <\/strong>in their audience detection, which finally drives better engagement and more conversions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today\u2019s technologies allow algorithms to surgically detect high potential profiles. They leverage data, deep dive into months of in-app consumer behavior to detect patterns and trends that will help <strong>predict <\/strong>the very few people that will eventually generate a real added value to your mobile app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which users are most likely to spend money on your app in the future? Which users are most likely to uninstall my app? Which users are most likely to continue playing to the next level if rewarded at the right moment? These are the questions that a <strong>predictive retargeting <\/strong>methodology and approach can help to answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ve created a fantastic product, don\u2019t let your business down or be cannibalised by archaic and unqualified retargeting solutions.
