Mobile Apps for small business are changing lives around the world. Here in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where this writer lives, apps are just a dream. Something only the very big businesses have, for sure.
Today I brought an app into a salon owner's life. First she said all she wanted was for people to be able to make appointments through the app. I assured here we would be able to set up her favorite scheduling source.
We also set up her FaceBook Fan Page, her YouTube Account, GPS directions, with a direct call feature, photos, and more!
When I explained to her that she can send a push message any time - and push messages (like a text message) were opened 97% of the time because the app holder downloaded your app, and they want to hear from you.
I explained it's a great way to get business in the door if the business is having a slow week - just send out a push message advising anyone with an app gets 30% off this week or something that will really bring people in.
Another great feature of the app, is it's sharable. Instead of having to try to find a business card, or write down the info, just share it with a simple push of a button to an email address or cell phone number.
One thing different about our apps, is it's not just for smart phones. Our app is also a mobile web site, so it can be used and seen through any mobile phone - it doesn't have to be a "smart" phone. Therefore, it can go viral!
The more people that have it... the more people will use it.
I explained how Manta, Linked In, and many webinars I've attended point out the way to brand yourself, and be successful, is to get into the social media. The app ties all the social media, such as FaceBook, Twitter, YouTube, and FourSquare together in one place, engaging the client, bonding with the client, creating that branding that makes your client want to share their great connection to you with their acquaintances.
