So i started working for a new dating app that needed help launching a sugar daddies dating app in Switzerland. Now Sugar daddy dating is a very niche service so you cannot advertise on Facebook and Instagram. You have to find very smart worded methods and ways to promote it. Nethertheless We managed to get thousands of registrations. In the month of April alone i did 2.4 million impressions and 19,000 web clicks for a cost of 3000 swiss franks.
However there was some complications. Our CTO had not integrated a payment system so there was no way for us to make any money. Secondly and most vitaly our CTO had made the verification process 23 pages long. The 23 page verification took 30 whole mins to complete. Tinder has a 6 page verification process which takes 5 mins. Our verification process was so long that we lost 90% of users who registered.
Knowing this, who is to blame for the failed launch of the sugar daddies dating app?
