If you’re going fishing, of course you need to have a lot of fishing gear.” “How do you keep people motivated? How do you see when they need a break? How do you balance that and find ways to keep them engaged? That takes a lot of effort.” Brought to you by Business Of Apps App industry marketplace Insights App Growth videos App Data App Events A message from App Promotion Summit Discounted ticket prices are currently available on all of our 2024 summits https://apppromotionsummit.com/   London - 25 Apr 2024 NYC - 27 Jun 2024 San Francisco - 26 Sep 2024 Berlin - 5 Dec 2024
