Every new idea looks crazy at first. So, do you have an idea about app development for your business? Most successful corporations and brands have developed mobile apps to further their business goals in 2017. An app not only elevates your marketing efforts but can improve your customers’ experience and boost ROI. Here are the top 10 reasons why your business should have a mobile app.
-
Boosts Revenue
Globally, mobile app revenue has reached $37 billion by 2017. That’s a huge amount of purchasing power, and your business can benefit by acquiring sponsorships or by utilizing advertisements within your app. Increasingly, consumers are looking to purchase products within an app. Your organization can boost sales and revenue by developing an app your customers will love using.
-
Increases Visibility
According to a report released, American consumers are spending 5 hours a day on their mobile devices. That’s an increase of 20% from 2018! With so many consumers using their devices, it should be no surprise that Apple’s App Store & Google Play receive millions of hits daily. The bottom line, your consumers are more likely than ever to access your business on their mobile devices.

Customers go Mobile
Several updates and competitors later, it’s clear that mobile devices are not going anywhere. More than likely, your competition is already aware that mobile is not just trendy – it’s a strong, lucrative market they are targeting. Don’t be left behind with antiquated methods of reaching your customer base.

Improves Engagement
Consumers want a fast and easy way to access your products, services, and contact information. A mobile app places that information right in front of them. Not only that, apps can provide you with stronger customer service and opportunities to connect with your audience.

Gain Customer Insights
One of the greatest features of a mobile app is the ability to receive volumes of data about your customers using analytics. You can interpret that data to receive valuable insights that can lead to smarter investments and increased ROI. In fact, a 2018 poll revealed that 87% of organizations believe analytics make existing services and products more profitable.
