The following videos were created to provide a broad, high-level overview of the core concepts used in mobile user acquisition, namely: lifetime customer value, retention, and campaign optimization.
This video series wasn’t designed and isn’t meant to be useful for seasoned user acquisition professionals; people who are generally familiar with these concepts will find these videos overly basic and introductory. Rather, this video series was designed with two use cases in mind:
- Product managers and executives at app development companies that want to be generally aware of mobile user acquisition workflow and how user acquisition managers make decisions;
- People within a mobile app development company that want to transition into a user acquisition role and can benefit from a quick primer on the function.
