Purpose-Driven Clients
Our Approach
Personalised User Acquisition
We design and execute bespoke, multi-channel campaigns tailored to your app’s mission. We connect you with vetted creators whose profiles align with your ethos. By working with advocates who are passionate about your goals, we create a buzz around your brand and spark the interest that converts.
Customer-Focused Messaging & Positioning

We take a data-driven, creative-first approach to growth. We consistently test, refine and optimise campaigns to maximise ROI. Our strategies are designed to scale your impact while containing acquisition costs.

Full analytics and reporting to ensure that our campaign impact aligns with your KPIs.
Our Proven Process for Purpose-Driven App Growth
Step 1: Mission & Audience Discovery
Dive deep into your app's purpose and identify your audience's motivations.
Example: For Treecard, we emphasized their mission to plant trees with every user milestone, resonating with eco-conscious audiences.
Step 2: Creative Content Development
Craft compelling visuals and narratives tailored to your app’s purpose.
Example: For Sweatcoin, we created TikTok challenges encouraging step tracking, engaging fitness enthusiasts and dog walkers.
Step 3: Optimized App Store Presence (ASO)
Enhance your app's discoverability and first impressions in app stores.
Example: For trundl, we tested custom product pages with optimized keywords, leading to a 300% download increase.
Step 4: Data-Driven Campaign Execution
Launch multi-channel campaigns optimized for performance and ROI.
Example: For Tier, we used dynamic targeting on Meta to reach urban commuters focused on eco-friendly transportation.
Step 5: A/B Testing & Real-Time Optimization
Test and refine creatives, messaging, and strategies to improve outcomes.
Example: For Addie, iterative ad testing reduced CPI by 65% while increasing app installs.
Step 6: Scalable Growth Through Insights
Analyze results and scale successful strategies across new regions and audiences.
Example: For Bounty, attribution insights helped refine targeting, driving higher engagement and lowering acquisition costs.
