As most successful game developers know, marketing your mobile app isn’t a once-and-done-it act. Your monetization and acquisition plans need to be considered carefully during development — i.e. long before launch. And those plans will unquestionably evolve as you build your audience and community and understand what motivates them the most.

Most importantly, you’ll need to understand which customers will be payers and which customers will consume ads — both vital parts of your user base.

To accomplish all this, you need data, lots of it, constantly refreshed.  You’ll also need tools that will make the data work hard for you.  It’s no understatement to say that getting the most out of your data to continually strengthen your marketing strategies requires constant diligence.

In the first of a four-part series, “Games, Growth, and Monetization,” we’re joined by Google and leaders of the mobile gaming industry to share vital intel on developing a successful launch marketing strategy.

You’ll learn how to constantly evolve and refresh your marketing tactics to ensure consumers stay engaged with your app through soft launch, launch, and different phases of growth. We’ll also explore the best ways to use Google’s analytics and machine learning to bring precision and efficiency to your plan in the most cost-effective and time-saving way possible. Mastering YouTube to build awareness for your game; targeting avid gamers across GDN; and using UAC to open up new regions and find the best customers worldwide are just some of the other topics we’ll be discussing during the live event.

We’ll be joined by EA’s Mobile Engagement & Acquisition Director Erica May, Pocket Gem’s Performance Marketing Director Chris Luhur, and Google’s Mobile Ads Product Manager Alex Valle. This roundtable of gaming giants we’ll deliver everything you’ll need to know on how to acquire high-value players for your app before it even has a name.
