Overview

## Mobile App Marketing, _done as one system._

A mobile app marketing agency owns the whole path from store impression to paying user: app store optimization on the App Store and Google Play, paid user acquisition across Meta, TikTok, Google Ads and Apple Search Ads, performance creative, retention and lifecycle messaging, launch campaigns, and the attribution that ties every dollar back to revenue. We run all of it as one team, so each surface feeds the next instead of competing with it.

Most apps can buy installs. Far fewer turn those installs into revenue, because the work that does it lives in separate tools and separate hands. We put the whole funnel under one roof and one set of metrics, measured on revenue per user instead of vanity installs.

The receipts are public. [Podz reached 52,873 installs in a month at $0.70 each](https://www.strataigize.com/case-studies/podz-52873-installs-in-a-month-at-70-cents/), an [AI fitness app's subscription funnel held 8.54x ROAS across six months](https://www.strataigize.com/case-studies/ai-fitness-app-achieved-8-54-roas/), [Kleo grew downloads 127% in a 30-day ASO sprint](https://www.strataigize.com/case-studies/127-increase-in-downloads-kleos-30-day-app-store-optimization/), and [a puzzle RPG passed 100,000 pre-launch sign-ups](https://www.strataigize.com/case-studies/pre-launch-success-mobile-puzzle-rpg-surpasses-100k-sign-ups/). Each study states the scope of its number. If you are still comparing agencies, our [comparison of the best mobile app marketing agencies in North America](https://www.strataigize.com/insights/the-best-mobile-app-marketing-agencies-in-north-america-for-2026/) applies the same test to five firms, ours included.

FAQ

## Mobile App Marketing, answered.

What does a mobile app marketing agency do?

It owns the path from store impression to paying user. In practice that is app store optimization, paid user acquisition, performance creative, retention and lifecycle messaging, and the analytics that connect them. The test of a good one is what it measures. We measure revenue per user and payback, and every result we publish is a case study with the scope of the number stated in it.

Which mobile app marketing services are included?

App store optimization for the App Store and Google Play; paid user acquisition across Meta, TikTok, Google Ads and Apple Search Ads; performance creative, tested in volume and cut fast when it underperforms; retention and lifecycle (onboarding, push, in-app messaging, paywall); and data analysis with attribution. Launch campaigns, from pre-registration through day-one installs, are scoped as their own sprint.

Do I have to use every service?

No. Many clients start with one surface, usually ASO or acquisition, and expand once it proves out. The advantage of one team is that the surfaces share data and compound, but we scope to where you'll see the fastest return first.

How much does a mobile app marketing agency cost?

All figures here are in USD. The full mobile growth retainer (user acquisition, ASO, and the creative loop run as one program) is $6,000 to $15,000 per month, month to month after the first 3 months. A bounded 30-day sprint, either an ASO overhaul or a creative-testing rebuild, is $9,000 fixed. Ad spend is separate and billed by the platforms directly, so you keep your own ad accounts; we manage from $25,000 per month in media.

Do you market both iOS and Android apps?

Yes. ASO covers the App Store and Google Play as two different listings with their own keyword and creative rules, and paid acquisition runs wherever the users are, including Apple Search Ads on iOS. Subscription apps, family and productivity tools and games all appear in the published case studies.

What kinds of apps do you work with?

Primarily subscription and freemium apps on iOS and Google Play, fitness, language, social, and productivity. The common thread is a real monetization model where revenue per user matters more than raw installs.

How quickly will we see results?

It depends on the lever. Store-conversion and paywall wins can show within weeks; acquisition efficiency and retention compound over a quarter or two. We sequence the fastest wins first so early results help fund the longer-horizon work.

How do I choose an app marketing agency?

Ask who owns the payback. A channel vendor can change bids and creative. An agency that owns the loop can also fix the store listing, the onboarding, the paywall and the way conversions are counted. Then ask for published case studies with the scope of each number stated, a written line on what they measure, and a price you can see before the first call. Ours is on the pricing page, and our comparison of the best mobile app marketing agencies in North America applies that test to five firms, including us.

What are the best Phiture alternatives for app growth?

Phiture sells ASO, performance marketing, retention, creative and data. It published no retainer on 16 September 2026. Stay with them when you need a large specialist bench. Call a smaller shop when you want the store listing, the paid buying and the paywall in one P&L, with the price in writing. Our growth work is $6,000 to $15,000 a month. The side-by-side, including Yodel Mobile, is on our Phiture and Yodel Mobile alternatives page.

What are good alternatives to Yodel Mobile?

Yodel Mobile has been in app marketing since 2007 and is part of NP Digital. It published no retainer on the pages we opened on 16 September 2026. Reasonable alternatives depend on the leak: Phiture for the specialist bench, Moburst for creative volume, and us when payback is the number the CFO asks about. The comparison is on our Phiture and Yodel Mobile alternatives page.
