Most App Marketers Track 20+ Metrics. You Only Need 3.
January 23, 2024
Here's what I learned after managing growth for multiple 7-figure apps like Photoroom and more…
Most app marketers get lost in the data jungle:
- They track every possible metric (creating noise)
- Or focus only on vanity metrics (missing the real signals)
But the best performing apps do something different. Here are the 3 buckets of metrics I use when thinking about app growth:
1. Blended Performance Metric 📈
- This can be either ARR/MRR/Revenue that you use as an indicator of progress
- Helps you understand if you're moving in the right direction with your marketing
- This is your highest point of truth
2. Customer Economics Metric 💰
- LTV per paying customer (segmented by country)
- Trial-to-paid conversion rate
- These two metrics are combined to determine your maximum bid in facebook/google
3. Subscriber Health Metric ❤️
- Active subscriptions trend
- Monthly Churn rate
- Refund rate as a health check
Real World Example
Let me break this down with a real example: One app was seeing a 37% trial conversion rate with a $40 LTV in the US. This meant we could profitably bid up to $15 for new users while maintaining healthy margins.
🚫 Pro Tip: These metrics only work if your ads are actually converting. Learn how to protect your Facebook ads from negative comments that can tank your conversion rates and increase your CPC.
The key? You only need 3 core metrics (blended performance, customer LTV, growth indicators) to make smart growth decisions. Everything else is just noise.
P.S. Using this framework, I've helped apps scale from 5 to 7 figures in revenue while maintaining profitability through smart bid management. Most importantly this data helps you optimize your advertising strategy for sustainable growth.
