7 Steps to Mobile App Success • No doubt that if you're reading this article, you fancy yourself to be a bit of an entrepreneur. You know that the mobile app industry is ripe with opportunity and the possibility of huge amounts of success. However, you’ll also be well aware that a lot of success comes down to great planning. • In terms of mobile app success, there are seven steps the heady heights of that top prize: £££. Below, we are going to walk you through these seven steps: • STEP 1: The Idea • The first thing that you’re going to need is an idea. Without this, you have no clue about the type of app you're going to create, and that means you won’t be able to make one!
Your idea needs to do one of two things: • Address a need in a market that hasn’t been addressed yet. Keep things under wraps if you choose this route, because there are idea stealers out there. • Improves an already existing app, or delivers the app at a more cost-effective price for the user. If you choose this one, you’re somewhat of an idea-stealer. You steal the idea from others, but you then improve it. This is fair enough, and you can always sell your new app to the rival. • If your idea doesn’t do either to these, then you need to go back to the drawing board and think again.
STEP 2: The Business Plan • Now, you need to outline exactly what you want the app to achieve. If you want to attract mobile app developers UK to your idea, then you need to do the same research that you would do for a business. • Provide one sentence saying what the app is, what it will do, and why. • Work out who the target audience will be – who will use the app. • Research and define the ways that you will attract the audience to the app. • Work out how you are going to create the app, e.g. are you going to try and do it yourself, or are you going to employ mobile app developers UK?
STEP 3: Take it to the developers’ office, or start researching app development yourself. • As you would proposition a bank for a loan, or another business for help, you take the proposal along to your investors. This is your business plan and you are looking for funding. You are asking the following: • Does the technology exist for creating the app? If not, back to the idea section. • Is it affordable? Either for you to learn yourself, or to employ a third party. • How will it look? This means creating the wireframe for the app – if you don’t know what that means, then we recommend you ask a third party to make the app.
STEP 4: Weighing up the pros and cons. • Do you have the money to support the app. Is the risk offset by a high percentage of probable success? Is this feasible? • This is another research section. You must think very carefully and spend a good amount of time developing and concocting your masterplan. • STEP 5: Make the app and test it. • Get the people trying the app. You need to use your target market. Get them to be as brutal as possible; you need honest feedback so that you can revise the app. • STEP 6: Revise and tweak the app until happy. • STEP 7: Launch using the marketing strategies you established in STEP 2.
