Key challenges in e-commerce and app services advertising

With the growth of e-commerce and app services, the ad market is becoming increasingly competitive. This creates challenges that traditional performance advertising channels alone cannot address.

Task 01

CPI rises - app installs cost more
As the app marketing market becomes more competitive, cost per install (CPI) continues to rise. The number of new users you can acquire with the same budget is shrinking.

Task 02

Low conversion rates without brand awareness
Consumers are wary of first-time app and store experiences. Consumers who already know your brand have a much higher install-to-purchase conversion rate after clicking on an ad than consumers who are new to your brand.

Task 03

Poor retention - post-install bounce
A large percentage of users who install your app from an ad will abandon it after the first use. Users who already recognize and install your brand have higher initial retention and repurchase rates.

Task 04

Cookieless Conversions - Reduced Retargeting Efficiency
3rd-party cookie retirement is reducing the accuracy of traditional retargeting ads. You need 1st-party data-driven targeted ads that work without cookies.

How to Acquire New Ecommerce Users with VMs

Lookalike audience targeting - Extract new customers with 1st-party data that are similar to the spending patterns of existing customers. Run conversion ads to customers who use your competitor's app, or who have purchased products in the same category.

Segment audiences by category - Focus on audiences with spending histories by category, such as beauty, food, and fashion. For example, Olive Young can run ads optimized for beauty consumers and Marketcully can run ads optimized for people who have a history of buying premium food.

Optimize app install-to-signup conversions - VM ads served in the membership app experience immediately link to the app store-signup page via QR or deep link. Combine install-inducing and offer-inducing ads to increase initial retention.

Repurchase and nurture long-term customers - Run ads to encourage users to repurchase after a period of time without a purchase since their first purchase. Run long-term campaigns to increase customer lifetime value (LTV).

Frequently asked questions - eCommerce ad media FAQs

Q. What is the most effective e-commerce advertising medium?

A. E-commerce needs to consider both user acquisition (to reduce CPI) and brand awareness. Vertical Media acquires new users with high conversion potential through precise targeting based on purchase history, while New Airline Media quickly builds brand awareness through topicality and social virality. By combining the two mediums, you can achieve both CPI savings and brand awareness.

Q. How can I lower my CPI on app install ads?

A. The most effective way to lower your CPI is to focus your ads only on audiences that are likely to convert. Vertical Media has a lower CPI than unspecified impressions because it extracts audiences with similar consumption patterns to your app service based on their carrier and card spending history. Also, building brand awareness with Early Brand Touch will increase the conversion rate of your performance ads, which will naturally lower your CPI.

Q. How to acquire new users with shopping app ads?

A. The most effective way to acquire new users for your shopping app is to target audiences with similar spending patterns to your existing customers. EMCG's Vertical Media extracts potential buyers by category based on their credit card and membership spending history and runs ads to drive app installs. Combined with first-purchase offer-coupon ads, this can also increase initial retention.
