Smart phones are so much more than just phones. People nowadays are using them to surf the web, check emails, as a GPS, to keep notes and probably most of all for the apps. If there is something you can?t do on your smart phone you better be sure you can probably find it in one of the app stores. While working in the Phoenix web design industry I started to wonder what are the ways that a mobile app can help businesses grow? Everyone looks at a mobile app and thinks of it as a business in and of its self. It is a haven for entrepreneurs looking at making a bunch of money. I mean look at Angry Birds for an example. Everyone is wanting to come up with the next Angry Birds app. But what about for a business? What are some benefits of developing apps strictly for your business?
- Branding ? The first thing that comes to mind is branding. If you are creating a mobile app for your customers to download then your logo and name will likely be an icon on the customers smart phone making it nearly impossible for somebody not to remember you. As a Phoenix web design company we realize the importance of branding so I can?t begin to stress the advantage you can have by having your logo placed on people phones. I mean think about how often you check your phone.
- Customer Service Tool ? So many companies contact information is so hard to find these days by having an app that assist your customers with issues they may be having your customer service ratings will jump. And of course you will want them to share there experience so you can tie it to social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
- Repeat Customers ? In today?s world people use there cell phone to either save time or kill time. I know that sounds dumb but think about it. People download numerous apps to help them save time but then turn around and download things like Temple Run to help them kill time. If you can create an help that will make life easy on your repeat customers you can count on not only them using you even more but also possible referral business.
