Understand the channels that work best for a specific segment of users

It is important to understand that not all users are the same. A users that installs the app via an Instagram campaign offering a discount is most likely to not behave the same way as one that installed the app organically from the App Store.
In short, the acquisition channel shouldn’t be the only available data point for a marketer to create messages that drive users from install to onboarding to conversion.

Use personalized messages to influence them to take the optimal action

To onboard users, you need to collect and analyze data from install sources, actions and inactions in the app, behavior insights, demographics and much more. The better you can correlate data from multiple sources the higher would be the probability of your messages resonating with your target audience.
