If your app marketing is reliant on a single channel, then you are setting it up to fail
When you develop a new app, all your focus on is how great your app is. But most of the developers forget that once the app is developed you need to have the right marketing strategy in place in order to reach your potential customers. This is the time when you need to decide if you are going to focus on a single marketing channel to promote your app or apply a 360 degree approach. This article will explain you why it’s important to exploit multiple channels for your marketing efforts, but before that let’s get to know what is Single and Multi channel marketing.

A case Study showing how to use App Store listing testing to boost downloads
On my first day at work my CEO at CallApp gave me a compelling challenge when he turned to me and said, “We need to increase the numbers of users downloading our app on day seven (an acceptable measuring metric), as quickly as we can."

How Moburst helped Mailwise gain visibility for their mobile app
For the past few years, the stock of mobile apps has been on the rise. As of May 2015, there are more than a million apps available in the leading app stores.
