🔍 How to win with Apple Search Ads in a post-ATT world - with Thomas Petit, Growth Consultant 🎭

The landscape of Apple Search Ads has changed, but unlike the changes in SKAdNetwork that have impacted most mobile channels, these changes have been far more subtle and nuanced - and yet are very critical.

Today we unpack these changes in the Apple Search Ads landscape with one of the best in the business - Thomas Petit.

Thomas is an independent mobile growth consultant working primarily with non-gaming B2C apps. He is an external consultant for large apps (including 2 unicorns), a collaborator assisting several app agencies and an advisor for very early-stage startups. He’s run campaigns since the first day of Apple Search, spending 7 figures on the platform directly and also running audits on many other accounts. He is certified by Apple, SearchAdsHQ & ASOdesk – and is a regular public speaker on the topic.
