Boston market plan
For a Boston team building a health, learning or habit app, acquisition quality depends on whether users reach a useful routine. This guide focuses on activation rather than a generic install target.
Identify a behaviour such as completing a lesson or returning for a second session.
Distinguish a product feature from a health or performance outcome.
Compare cohorts after enough time for the intended routine to occur.
Published client results
Each figure comes from a published Admiral case study. They are client results, not a forecast for your app or a Boston benchmark.

Official references
A useful event reflects value received, such as repeat completion of the core activity. Validate its relationship to retention and payment before using it as the main optimization signal.
Use claims supported by appropriate evidence and approved by the client's responsible reviewers. Platform approval alone does not establish that an outcome claim is accurate or suitable.
Admiral Media delivers its services remotely. This guide supports Boston-based teams; it is not an office listing. Working arrangements are agreed during scoping.
Bring your app and target markets, with activation definition. Agree the work and management fee separately from media spend.
