Frankly, if your app is innovative and brings something new to the table, it will almost always get noticed automatically. If it offers the same deal but works well - a review site will help increase sales. If the app is nothing more than an icon that crashes, then very clever promoting will get you to the top for about a week until people stop buying due to 1-star ratings.

New apps almost never get noticed automatically, no matter how innovative, unless you are a big brand or have major PR connections. Nobody will know about your better mousetrap without marketing. Unless lightning strikes you.

Lightning tends to strike me on a daily basis…
