- How much does app marketing cost in Bangladesh?
- App marketing costs depend on app category, platform mix, and growth goals. Starter programs begin at BDT 1L/month agency fee. Growth app marketing typically invests BDT 2L-3L/month. Enterprise app marketing invests BDT 4L+/month. Ad spend is separate and transparent — typically BDT 5L-50L+/month depending on growth ambitions and app economics.
- What's a good cost per install (CPI) in Bangladesh?
- CPI varies dramatically by app category. Casual gaming apps often achieve CPI under BDT 30. E-commerce apps typically range BDT 50-150. Fintech apps range BDT 100-300. B2B SaaS apps can range BDT 300-1,000+. However, CPI is the wrong metric to optimize — cost per activated user matters far more for actual business outcomes.
- Should I optimize for installs or for activation events?
- Activation events — almost always. Cheap installs that never activate destroy app marketing economics. Optimizing for activation events (KYC completion, first transaction, first purchase, account creation) typically improves activated user economics dramatically even when raw install costs stay similar or rise. Sophisticated app marketers always optimize post-install events.
- What's a Mobile Measurement Partner (MMP) and do we need one?
- MMPs (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch, Singular) are essential infrastructure for serious app marketing. They handle install attribution across platforms, post-install event tracking, deferred deep linking, fraud protection, and cohort analysis. Apps without proper MMP setup operate blind to their actual marketing performance. We strongly recommend MMP setup for any serious app marketing program.
- How does iOS 14 affect our app marketing?
- iOS 14's privacy changes broke traditional attribution for iOS apps — IDFA access requires opt-in, ATT prompts limit data, and most users decline tracking permissions. Modern iOS app marketing requires SKAdNetwork (SKAN 4.0) understanding, conversion value optimization, and probabilistic attribution alternatives. Most BD agencies still operate as if iOS 14 didn't happen, leading to broken optimization.
- Can app marketing work for B2B apps?
- Yes. B2B app marketing requires different strategies than B2C — typically LinkedIn-focused acquisition, longer onboarding cycles, account-based marketing, and decision-maker targeting. We've delivered app marketing across B2B SaaS, productivity apps, and business tools — focusing on quality activated users rather than install volume.
- How important is App Store Optimization?
- Critical. Strong ASO typically grows organic installs substantially while reducing paid install costs through better store conversion rates. We treat ASO as foundational app marketing infrastructure — including keyword optimization, screenshot design, video previews, ratings management, and description optimization.
- Can you handle international app expansion?
- Yes. We build cross-border app marketing programs for Bangladeshi apps expanding internationally. Includes country-specific ASO, localized creative, market-appropriate platforms, currency considerations, cultural adaptation, and timezone-aware lifecycle programs. Particularly relevant for NRB-focused apps and apps targeting South Asian markets.
- Do you handle push notifications and in-app messaging?
- Yes. We design and implement complete push notification and in-app messaging strategies through CleverTap, OneSignal, Braze, and similar platforms. Includes onboarding sequences, activation nudges, transactional notifications, promotional campaigns, and re-engagement automation.
- How do you measure app marketing success?
- We track install attribution, cost per install (CPI), cost per activated user (CPA), Day-1/7/30 retention rates, average revenue per user (ARPU), customer lifetime value (LTV), cohort retention, and full unit economics by acquisition channel. Reports tie marketing investment to actual app profitability — not vanity install numbers.
- Can you produce app marketing creative in-house?
- Yes. Our in-house creative team produces app screenshots, app preview videos, social ad creative for app campaigns, animated tutorials, motion graphics, and platform-specific creative variations. Creative volume matters in app marketing; we deliver it without quality compromise.
- Do you handle app store ratings and reviews management?
- Yes. We implement strategic ratings management including review request optimization, response strategy for negative reviews, sentiment analysis, app store community engagement, and reputation defense. Strong ratings dramatically affect both organic discovery and paid campaign conversion rates.
- Can you handle gaming app marketing?
- Yes. Gaming app marketing requires specialized expertise — different than utility or commerce apps. We've delivered gaming app marketing across casual, hyper-casual, and mid-core categories. Includes install volume optimization combined with revenue optimization through in-app purchases and ad-supported monetization.
- What about user acquisition fraud?
- Fraud is a real challenge in app marketing — affecting up to 20-30% of installs in some categories. We implement fraud protection through AppsFlyer Protect 360, Adjust Fraud Prevention Suite, and similar tools. Includes installs validation, click fraud detection, fake user identification, and ongoing fraud monitoring protecting your marketing investment.
