Client testimonial
"Working with Darius and Maria was incredibly valuable. They have a unique ability to translate deep full-funnel expertise into a clear, actionable plan that our team could actually execute. They helped us strengthen our overall strategy and conversion plan, while giving us a practical framework we can continue using as we scale our app. We came away with greater clarity, a stronger foundation, and a much clearer path forward. I would highly recommend them to any team looking to turn ambitious growth goals into a thoughtful and executable strategy."

01 / What founders say

Practical app growth training, built from the work behind the sprint.

★★★★★

My husband did this course first and he was able to double his acquisition for his app. I'm now doing it for my app and so far I found it brilliant!

RowinaApp founder
★★★★½

One of the best courses I've ever seen! As app developers, we only think about the product but marketing, advertisement and sales are 50% of the battle. I feel like a junior marketer after this course. Darius is really responsive and he's adding new content to keep up with current trends.

ErickaApp developer
★★★★★

I got 100 times more than what I've invested in terms of both money and time.

RoniApp founder
★★★★★

I did a different course before this one, the current best seller, and this one is just so much better. The examples are way closer to a real-life scenario, the tips are incredibly useful and I feel so motivated to tackle that whole marketing topic now.

ChristopherApp founder
★★★★★

Excellent masterclass! He knows what he is talking about and gives you the best insights, tips and real tools you can use. Thank you Darius! I'm sure you contributed to the success of my app.

DiegoApp founder
★★★★★

There's practically a eureka moment in every section. I'm using the same tools and platforms, so everything Darius teaches I can pause and implement on my own apps.

JoeyApp founder
★★★★½

This might be the most comprehensive mobile app marketing, advertising and monetization course available online.

AndrewApp founder
★★★★½

As a mobile app developer I can create amazing apps, but I had no idea how to market them. Darius really knows what he's doing. He walks you step by step. Highly recommend.

NicholasApp developer
★★★★★

The best course I ever had online so far. You are able to explain things that are not that easy in a calm and captivating way, making learning practically intuitive.

FernandoApp founder
★★★★★

The course starts with the most important topic, growth, and spends real time on it. The use cases are ones I can relate to, and I could see where I had gone wrong previously.

PaulApp founder
★★★★★

You can get knowledge you cannot find anywhere else: Reddit, Google's editors, VCs. Already gave some nice results for our published app.

Case study

Reflectly: 0 to 20 million users.

03 / Case study
The situation

A journaling app with a strong product and no growth engine. Darius joined as Head of Growth and later ran the company's marketing as CMO.

What changed

An A/B testing discipline applied to every layer of the funnel, micro-influencers run at scale as a content engine, an early bet on TikTok, and app acquisitions used as a growth channel.

The numbers

Four million new users in the first year. Thirty thousand new users a day at peak. The number two Health & Fitness app on the US App Store. Past 20 million users, with Apple's Editors' Choice and App of the Day.

On the record: App Masters, episode 784 · Nomad Podcast, episode 35 · App Promotion Summit London, "How we got to 1M downloads"

Fit

Built for founders with a live app and room to move.

07 / Who this is for

The sprint is a good fit when

  • ✓You have a live mobile app with real users and revenue, but no one on the team owns growth end to end.
  • ✓You can ship product and store changes in days, not quarters. Onboarding, paywall, pricing, and App Store assets may need to change.
  • ✓You want to build a growth system with us in 30 days, then run it internally or keep us involved as advisors.

The sprint is not the right fit when

  • ✕Your app is still an idea or prototype, or it does not yet have a public store listing. Return when it is live.
  • ✕You want an agency to post for you and send a monthly report. We work on the decisions and systems behind sustainable growth.
  • ✕A five-figure investment would create pressure right now. Start with the self-serve playbooks and return when the timing is right. Start with the playbooks

FAQ

Questions founders ask before they apply.

10 / FAQ
Do you execute, or do you advise?+

In the sprint, we do hands-on strategic work: diagnose the funnel, set positioning, create the content system, improve the App Store direction, and define onboarding, paywall, pricing, and experiment decisions. Your team owns product changes, publishing, and ongoing production. We do not operate as a posting agency or an embedded execution team.

Why does the sprint last 30 days?+

Thirty days gives us enough time to see the funnel clearly, make the highest-leverage decisions, and build a working system with your team. It is short enough to keep momentum high and specific enough that you leave knowing what happens next.

We do not have a marketer. Is that a problem?+

No. Many clients start there. We work with the founder or product lead, then leave a clear plan your team can run. You do need someone who can make decisions and ship product, App Store, and content changes quickly.

What happens after the sprint?+

You can run the system internally with the 90-day plan, or continue with the Growth Retainer. The retainer gives you a weekly working session with both of us, Slack access, and a regular review of your experiments and decisions.

How is the sprint priced?+

The sprint gives you 30 days of focused work from both specialists across the full funnel. Pricing depends on the scope your app actually needs, so we agree it on the call rather than guessing at it here. We take four active clients at a time, and we use the application to make sure the scope, timing and fit are right before either side commits.

Do you work with pre-launch apps?+

The sprint is for live apps with real users and a public store listing. Pre-launch founders will get more value from the free resources and playbooks until there is product, user, and funnel data to work with.
