Andre Kempe. From ringtones to apps.
Andre started his career in mobile marketing when ringtones were the hottest product on the planet. When the first smartphone shipped, he bet early on app marketing as the next platform.
He spent the next decade leading marketing teams at scaling apps: Head of Marketing and CMO at LOVOO, fleek by Zalando and Mr D Food. That is where he picked up the pattern that became Admiral Media.
In 2019 he founded Admiral Media, a creative performance agency built around the idea that scaling apps is a creative problem before it is a media problem. Today the agency operates globally with an award-winning international team.
What we believe about app growth.
Creative is the lever
Media buying is table stakes. Creative decides whether a campaign scales. Every client engagement starts from the ad, not the spreadsheet.
Operators over vendors
Every person on the Admiral team has run a channel in production. No account managers who have never shipped an ad. You talk to the person doing the work.
Transparency by default
Clients see the spend, the attribution and the logic behind every decision. No black boxes. No commission rebates we pretend do not exist.
Share the playbook
We publish what we learn. The podcast, the resources library, the Growth Memo. A rising tide is better than a private playbook.
Where Admiral shows up.
The Admiral Media team is on the stage of every major app marketing conference. We host our own invite-only events, speak at public ones and record Let’s Talk Ads with the operators scaling the fastest apps.
The platforms trust us.
The memo app marketers actually read.
Every new Let’s Talk Ads episode, every speaking slot, plus one tactical growth teardown. Twice a month, written by the Admiral Media team. No fluff, no filler, no affiliate links.
