Triple the user base within 4 months through a mix of organic and paid growth strategies, while keeping acquisition costs low.
The Problem: Slow Initial User Acquisition
The app had a strong product but was struggling to gain traction in a crowded market. Organic installs were low, and previous ad campaigns delivered high costs per acquisition with little long-term user retention.
OUR STRATEGY: AGGRESSIVE YET SUSTAINABLE GROWTH PLAN
Step 1: Product-market Fit Refinement
Conducted user surveys and onboarding feedback sessions to fine-tune messaging and feature highlights.
Positioned the app uniquely around convenience, community, and visible fitness results.
Step 2: Amplified Organic Visibility
Launched influencer partnerships, ambassador programs, and viral challenges on Instagram and TikTok.
Optimized App Store and Google Play listings with new keywords, screenshots, and video previews (ASO).
Step 3: Performance-driven Paid Campaigns
Rolled out highly targeted Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube ads focused on trial downloads and conversions.
Continuously tested creatives and audience segments to optimize for the lowest possible CPA (Cost Per Acquisition).
Step 4: User Referral Program Launch
Introduced a "Refer a Friend" program rewarding both referrer and referee with premium perks.
Built a viral loop into the app's core features to incentivize sharing.
