Hey Reader,

This week is about small changes that get big results.

I'm talking about the single character that killed an app's ranking, why you should ignore most of your customers, and the big mistake on your app store page.

1. Your app store page is for buyers, not designers.
You spent weeks making your app store listing look great. But what if the things you think look good are actually turning away real merchants?​

2. Find your "champion" clients.
​Stop trying to please everyone. One happy client who truly gets it is worth 100 lukewarm ones for finding product-market fit.

3. The one-space SEO mistake.
My friend's app was stuck on page 2 of the app store. The fix was deleting a single space in his app's title. Seriously.

Which one hit home for you? Hit reply and let me know.

Ohad.

PS: Final spots closing for March. If you want my help to boost your app, the time to act is now. Reply to this email and I'll share the deets.

Same three problems every time. Mistake #1: You’re writing for yourself, not merchants Open your app listing. Now imagine your drunk grandmother logs in at 4am. Can she understand what you do in 5 seconds? Most app listings fail this test. They hide behind jargon. They list features instead of solving ONE clear...

The No Barrier Reef 🪸 Hey Reader, Last week I posted three things on LinkedIn that got people arguing in my DMs. One was about a competitor gaming the review system. One was about why complicated pricing kills conversions. And one was about finally automating the part of my work I've been avoiding for years. Here's what's worth your time: WHEN YOUR PRICING TABLE NEEDS A SCROLL BAR, YOU'VE ALREADY LOST Exhausted merchants don't compare seven tiers. They bookmark your app and never come back....

The No Barrier Reef 🪸 Hey Reader, You built the app. Launched it. Optimized the listing. Page 3 of search results. Watching apps with hundreds of reviews rank above you. You need reviews to get visibility. You need visibility to get installs. You need installs to get reviews. Chicken and egg. Most founders think better listing copy fixes this. Better keywords. Better screenshots. It doesn't. The App Store rewards apps that already have momentum. Waiting for it to send you customers? You're...
