Most mobile game users
leave the first 30 days

The Freemium Pressure Cooker
2-3% of users spend money
Users see that their fun is limited without paying and loose interest
Paying users get more fun and stay
Bad app store reviews, poor WOM
Pressure to buy in-

Pretty cool, right …
Now let’ talk more about MONEY

So far all the fishing hasbeen in the small pool
Budgets for banner ads come from E-Commerce= less than 7% of overall marketing budgets
![Page 20: 1 Christian O. Petersen 16 years of Games mobile and marketing Producer of over 100 advergames x x Getting brands to pay for in-game purchases Iryna Liashchuk](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551a3c5b550346545e8b4e44/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
We have the key tohuge retail ad budgets
Traditional retail is 15 times bigger than e-commerce,but retailers are not getting clear ROI from the CPM
and CPC based ads
Retail is the top US ad spender with $21.5Bn (US =33% of global ad spend)
US Retail Ad Budgets:Walmart $1.8BSears $1.7BTarget $1.6BMacy’s $1.5BMcDonalds 1.5BJCPenney $1.2B
