Retention is the winning strategy for mobile app marketing. The primary goal of a mobile app marketer is to find new ways to create long-term and valuable customers. Brands have realized that other than app acquisition, taking advantage of targeted ad campaigns to attract the right users to the app leading to better retention is also essential. To improve user retention, personalized push notifications can prove worthy in a big way. Segmentation and personalization are two main components in increasing engagement. Personalized push notifications are messages based on important user attributes and behavioral insights. Broadcast campaigns are sent to an entire user base and are sent using simple attributes such as first name, last name, and more. On the other hand, segmented campaigns consider multiple characteristics to deliver a great user experience.
