Integrate  and  OpAmise  •  Be_ng  too  heavily  on  any  one  or  two    

mobile  adverAsing  methods  is  risky  •  Success  hinges  on  effecAve  use  of  a  range    

of  traffic  sources:  –  reach  your  largest  potenAal  audience  –  realize  the  lowest-­‐possible  acquisiAon  cost  –  protect  your  app  from  audience  saturaAon  

•  Test,  test,  test  •  Measure  everything  across  all  sources

The  Growing    OpportuniAes  Using    

Social  Ad  Units  

Page 10: Fiksu presentation at App Promotion Summit: Optimizing Around KPIs July 2013

So  What  are  the  OpAons  in  Social?    Network   Ad  Unit   Performance  

•  Mobile  App  Installs  •  Sponsored  Stories  

•  Mobile  App  Ad  Unit  very  effecAve  at  driving  volume  and  performance  but  requires  very  acAve  management  

•  Sponsored  Stories  found  to  be  less  effecAve  

•  TwiRer  Cards  (coming  soon)  •  Deep  linking  (coming  soon)  •  Promoted  Tweets  •  Celebrity  Tweets  

•  TwiRer  Card  allows  users  to  browse  details  of  app  before  downloading  •  Deep  linking  gives  opAon  to  either  download  app  or  open  at  a  specific  place  

(already  installed)  

•  Sponsored  stories    

•  Launched  Apr  29th  

•  None   •  Focus  on  sponsored  content  not  app  installs  (ex  :  company  sponsoring  the  release  of  a  white  paper)  

•  Have  released  an  ad  API  (CPL  focus)  and  are  building  the  infrastructure  but  no  Ametable    

•  Promoted  updates  (e.g.  locally  focused  for  shops)  

•  No  ability  to  track  performance  adverAsing.  Raised  £33  million  April  2013  to  boost  mobile  adverAsing    

•  Focus  on  funneling  traffic  into  exchanges  

•  None   •  No  ability  to  track  performance  adverAsing

Facebook:  the  Opportunity  •  Audience  size  (1.1B,  751M  on  mobile)  •  Mobile  usage  now  75%  of  MAU  •  Mobile-­‐only  MAU  is  10%+  of  total  users  •  Mobile  is  now  30%  of  total  ad  revenue  

Facebook’s  Mobile  Monthly  AcAve    Users  (MAU)  in  millions

Facebook  ad  unit  

•  App-­‐specific  ad  unit  •  Links  directly  to  the  App  Store  •  Appears  in  mobile  newsfeed  •  SegmentaAon  opAons    

To  maximise  this  opportunity,  marketers  must  measure  downloads  and  loyal  usage  acAons.  

Your  choice  is  to  build  it  yourself  –  or  work  with  a  Facebook-­‐integrated  aRribuAon  and  opAmisaAon  partner  like  Fiksu.

TargeAng  OpAons  •  Demographics:  region,  age,  gender,  

relaAonship  status,  educaAon,  new  job,  new  home,  expecAng,  just  moved…  

•  Interest  opDons:  sports,  music,  brands,  interests,  technology…  

•  Facebook  presence:  target  (or  exclude)  those  who  like  your  page,  for  example  

•  Custom  audiences:  emails,  Facebook  IDs,  or  phone  numbers  can  be  targeted  or  excluded  •  Migrate  exisAng  customers  

•  In  any  combinaAon  

Page 14: Fiksu presentation at App Promotion Summit: Optimizing Around KPIs July 2013

What’s  Performance  Like?    •  Every  app  has  a  personality  

–  For  some,  Facebook  is  one  of  the  top  sources  of  traffic    –  For  others  it’s  less  efficient  than  exisAng  channels  –  That’s  precisely  why  you  have  to  test  

•  In  aggregate,  CTRs  and  conversion  rates  are  much  higher  than  typical  networks  

•  You  won’t  know  unAl  you  try  –  but  you  should  definitely  try

Fiksu  Findings  Facebook  Mobile  App  Install  unit  now  a  Top  10  Ad  Network  for  Fiksu  •  Launched  in  Feb  2013  and  rapid  adopAon  since  then  •  Fully  aRributable  network  with  great  loyalty  •  High  volume  and  CPI  potenAal  of  £.75  -­‐  £2.25  

However,  this  source  requires  very  acAve  management  to  sustain  •  SaturaDon  –  Performance  worsens  quickly  aqer  the  ad  is  displayed  a  second  Ame  or  the  ad  

tries  to  reach  users  with  low  online  engagement  •  Young  Audiences  -­‐  Highly  engaged  users  skew  performance  in  favor  of  younger  audiences  •  Metrics  -­‐  Overly  broad  conversion  claiming  makes  comparing  with  other  networks  

challenging
