#36: How to increase app retention with Darren Last, Digital Transformation Consultant at Shell

Retain or not retain? That’s the question when it comes to app retention -the most important metric that app marketers and publishers  focus on today. Generally speaking, on average it costs up to 7x to find a new custom than to retain an existing one.

It has different features and different variations in these markets.” Don’t go by your gut feel. Rely on hard data and listen to your customers to give them what they want. Not what you think they want. Nothing’s ever perfect. Continue optimization lifecycle."
