How do you drive more subscriptions in your mobile app? Segmentation is one answer, and you can learn a lot about both segmentation and subscriptions when you manage over 200 apps with hundreds of millions of users.
In this episode of CleverTap Engage, we chat with the VP of Marketing for Maple Media, Ashley Fauset. She manages marketing for literally hundreds of apps, is already building off-App-Store payment processing in view of the Epic Games-Apple lawsuit result, and is running lifecycle marketing for high-value app users in probably 10 different verticals.
Her secret?
Experimentation. Action. Quick learnings. And aligning product, marketing, and messaging to drive engagement, retention, and ultimately … revenue.

"5 minutes with" is a quick peek into the lives of marketing leaders. We ask a few more personal questions than in our full-length CleverTap Engage episodes. In this chat with the chief brand officer of HelloFresh, hosts John Koetsier and Peggy Anne Salz ask her about creative, growth, business impact, engagement, and retention.
Topics we cover:
- What was the most impactful creative you ever experienced in an ad?
- What was the most difficult part of HelloFresh almost doubling in size in a year?
- How do you know when you have the creative just right?
- What is the hard-core bottom-line business impact of amazing creative?
- What is the best mobile app experience you remember?
- What is your top tip for boosting mobile user retention?
How do you grow 84% in a year and deliver 600 million meals globally? A lot has to go right, but you certainly have to have your branding and segmentation in order … and a good understanding of your customer journey.
HelloFresh’s Global Director of Creative Services Emma Baines joins us for a chat through a pandemic year: mind-blowing growth, a creative refresh that was both desperately needed and -- thanks to COVID -- unfortunately timed, and creative that ties together the customer journey from ad to subscription to payment to delivery to consumption.
