The Challenge
Fishbuddy had strong traction in Norway, but needed to scale user growth and paid subscriptions in Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark and Austria. The core constraint was efficiency: reach a niche audience of sports anglers and outdoor enthusiasts with country-specific relevance while keeping acquisition costs under control.
Our Approach
Built a country-by-country growth engine combining localized creative, feature-led messaging, influencer content, App Store Optimization and full-funnel paid media. Campaigns were tracked through GA4, AppsFlyer and Looker Studio, with continuous optimization against cost per install, subscription intent and revenue per user.
“The winning mix was localized creative plus channel-specific optimization: Meta and Apple Search Ads led iOS performance, while Google App Campaigns delivered the strongest Android download efficiency.”
