for keywords with high search volume AND low competition
● Analyze result suggestions in App Store search bar
ASO - SCREENSHOTS
● Communicate the value of your app clearly - especially on the 2 first screenshots
○ Advertising-oriented creative & copy work
● Video previews optimization on Google Play store through YouTube (proven to have no impact on App Store conversion)

● Prompt for app review after user has had a positive experience ● Integrate the review prompt to your app experience & optimize
for positive rating (see next slide)● # reviews weighs more than app rating: ratings between 3.9 and
4.1 are acceptable● Implement customer service practice to answer users who leave
bad reviews on Google Play store

Mobile CRM/push tool:
PRODUCT OPTIMIZATION
● Developing an habit-forming product/experience is critical for retention in the app ecosystem
● Smartphones have a small screen real-estate: content/product personalization drives significant conversion lifts
● Shopping behavior on smartphone: impulse shopping & browsing. Discounts, lower AOVs and unsizeable items perform best (for now)
CONCLUSIONThe window of opportunity is short!
