One of the staples of app marketing is understanding of your customer. If you understand her needs, her likes and dislikes, her behavior, you can build a winning strategy to connect your app with people who will be your loyal users.

They're really powerful because they tap into universal human tendencies, things like avoiding loss, valuing scarcity, or seeking closure. At Cleo, we use biases thoughtfully. One example is loss aversion. People feel the pain of losing more intensely, something more intensely than the joy of gaining the same thing. So we leverage this with features like saving streaks. If a user is consistently saving, Cleo will remind them like don't lose your streak and it's super simple but it taps into that innate desire to avoid loss and it actually really works." "I think as fun and as important as cognitive bias are, they are never more than like the icing on a solid cake. And they're amazing for enhancing an experience, but they won't work if the product itself doesn't solve a real problem. For app creators, my advice is therefore like first, focus on the fundamentals first. If your core product doesn't deliver value, no amount of nudging and cognitive bias layer you add to it will fix that." Host Business Of Apps - connecting the app industry since 2012
