app growth marketing, run by the person who did 2 million users
30 minutes, free. a written 30 day plan whether or not we work together.
App growth marketing is the work of taking an app from its first users to a repeatable acquisition engine: creative, channels, measurement and retention, run as one loop. I do it hands-on for founders in the US and Europe, the same way I scaled ZuAI from 10,000 to 2 million users at $0.02 blended CAC.
what app growth marketing includes
one operator, not a team of juniors
i run the campaigns, write the briefs, read the numbers and kill what does not work. you talk to me.
creative at volume
ugc, short-form and static, tested in batches. on zuai that is 150+ creatives a month.
every channel that works for apps
tiktok ugc, reddit, paid social, founder-led content, short-form video. picked for your app, not sold as a bundle.
one number you can trust
blended cac, payback and retention cohorts, reported weekly in a sheet you own.
who this is for
- consumer and AI apps past their first 1,000 users
- founders who have tried an agency and got reports instead of users
- teams with budget but no operator to run it
the loop
week 1: audit
funnel, tracking, store listing, current creative and spend. you get a written plan with a target cac.
weeks 2 to 6: test
two or three channels, creative in batches, small budgets. anything that does not repeat gets cut.
weeks 7 to 12: scale
budget moves to the engine that repeats. weekly readout, monthly plan.

app growth marketing questions
do you work with pre-launch apps?
rarely. growth marketing needs a product people keep. if you are pre-launch, the club is the better place to start and it is free.
what budget do i need?
enough to run a real test on two channels for six weeks. i will tell you the number on the call after seeing your funnel. i do not take on accounts where the budget cannot produce a signal.
is this an agency?
no. it is me, hands on, with contractors for creative when volume needs it. no account managers, no decks.
how is this different from hiring a growth marketer?
a hire takes months to find and ramp. i have done this since 2019 and start inside a week. when you are ready to hire, i help you do it.
get a written 30 day plan for app growth marketing.
tell me about your app and what is stuck. i reply within a day with what i would run, what i would not, and whether we should talk.
