App Distribution: Paid Channels | Media Planning
Developing a media plan and strategy
Once you have exhausted all your free channels, most app
marketers will need to expand their efforts into paid
marketing in order to keep growth on pace. The first step
when starting paid marketing is to evaluate different traffic
sources and develop a media plan.
Most mobile media plans combine these channels:
Mobile Ad Networks
Direct Publishers
Publisher Networks
Demand Side Platforms

Picking the right paid channel
As you develop your media plan you will want to consider the
following when selecting channels:
1. Can you leverage existing channels and relationship that
you have on the PC side to get better service?
2. Are there specific marketing requirements such as geo-
targeting that you need to consider upfront?
3. Do you have a rough estimate of how much you can
spend on a monthly basis?

Measure, Analyze, and Optimize: Conversion Tracking
www.tapsense.com info@tapsense.ocm
Measure, Analyze, and Optimize
When optimizing campaigns there are two major levers that
marketers have:
1. Channel optimization: This is adjusting your spend
allocation between different publishers in order to achieve
the best Return on Investment (ROI).
2. Creative optimization: This is the process of developing and
testing different creative with different messages, images,
buttons, etc.
A/B testing is a simple way to test changes to your
campaigns against a control to determine which
ones produce positive results.
Optimizing your campaigns
www.tapsense.com info@tapsense.ocm
Tips For Success
1. Update your creative and messaging often:
With digital media it’s easy to develop and test lots of creative variety. Creative burn happens faster as you
increase budget and acquire more users.
2. Focus on acquiring users not clicks:
Pay attention it just your CTR is a rookie mistake. Platforms now exist that give deep insights in users quality in
addition to volume.
3. Test a new paid channel every month:
It’s easy to become complacent, but the best app marketers constantly test and try new channels all the time.
As a rule of thumb it’s best to try out one new traffic each month.
4. Focus marketing efforts during peak season:
Retailers are a great example, they aggregate most of the marketing efforts around holidays and key shopping
days like Black Friday. Planning well in advance for these events helps to ensure marketing success.
5. Get help from consultants and agencies
Seeking the help of professionals and consultant who specialize in areas such as mobile creative development,
mobile media planning, or mobile marketing can have a big impact.
