  1. Your Android AppMarketing Strategy

  2. it takes a lot of hard work to achieve such success. • the sheer number of apps for sale on the Android Market has made it a little more difficult to stand out from the crowd • the intense pricing pressure causes many developers to start off at a low price or quickly drop their price to $0.99

  3. We’ve Seen This Before • The Android Market is much like your local supermarket • Amazon.com is no different

  4. To create a winning sales and marketing strategy for your app, it’s important to understand the dynamics of the Android Market and understand that there are several strategies you can employ. • There are actually three possible outcomes: the Big Win app, the Steady Win app, and the No Win app

  5. The Big Win—Grand Slam • Generally characterized by explosive sales from their launch • Games, by far, make up the majority of the Big Win apps • Aim is to achieve quick sales on apps that are priced in the games sweet spot—from $0.99 to $2.99 • The longevity of this type of app may be short, lasting only a few weeks or months. • They are usually simplistic in their premise. • Low on learning, high on enjoyment is the rule of thumb for the quick win Big Win games • Often get a big break from the press as being an app to look at.

  6. The Steady Win—Base Hits • These apps rely on Android app reviews, positive blog posts, and making it onto the Android Market’s “wall of fame,” • These apps also rely on good old-fashioned, consistent marketing. • Generally command a higher selling price and can have more predictable revenue streams.

  7. The No Win—Strikeout • large number of apps on the Android Market are DOA • Sometimes, even very well written apps end up unnoticed and ignored.

  8. So, what do you do when you find yourself in this predicament, where your app is not doing well at all? • It’s time for a total app makeover!

  9. Is there really a market for my app? • Is my app extremely well written? • Have I done any marketing?

  10. What Makes for aWinning App?

  11. key elements of a winning app Build Something Unique • What are your favorite hobbies? • What sports do you play? • What line of work are you in? • What challenges do you face in your life? • What are your least favorite chores? • What daily activity takes you the most time to complete? • What childhood games did you enjoy playing?

  12. Deliver New Features • Winning apps require frequent feature updates • Your app should be architected in such a way that you can easily add enhancements and updates • Some developers have adopted the idea that they will increase their sales by doing an upgrade as fast as they can push it through • Each update also helps you address customer comments/suggestions/complaints and keeps your relationship with your customers intact

  13. Tie Your App into Trends and News • Trends are always occurring around the world; look no further than the Internet or cable news stations for ideas. • Going green, Eating healthy,Fashion, Home décor and design.

  14. Tie Your App into Seasons and Holidays • The only problem with seasonal apps is, well, they are seasonal • One strategy is to create multiple apps for different holidays so you are focusing on selling apps all year long.

  15. Tie Your App to Part of a Wider Solution • Perhaps the most popular category of apps is that of social networking–related apps
