Whether you are an established small business in your community or just starting out, mobile sites and apps are used to create a “buzz” in your business.
Mobile websites are predominantly for acquisition of new customers, while mobile apps are created with more functionality to keep in touch and extend your existing customers with a loyalty campaign in mind. The return on investment with your small business mobile application may surprise you. For example, a small local pizza company sends a “push notification” on slow nights once per week to its loyal customers, and increases its bottomline by 25% on a monthly basis. How? By keeping in touch with its customers. More repeat customers will take advantage of your spontaneous specials than you realize, and even if it’s only once per week, those four days can end up being four of your busiest days – depending on your special offer. In fact, push notifications (similar to text / sms messages) are read within four minutes of sending them by 96% of your loyal customers.
Mobile websites are important to have in order to accommodate mobile users driving around and looking for your services. These sites are included when you purchase a mobile app from our company, as we believe they usher in new customers, clients and patients through your doors through the mobile search network. After all, your mobile site will provide all visitors with a link to your mobile app, in order to download it directly onto their mobile device, so you can keep in touch with them in the future.
Not a pizza company? That’s okay. Depending on the focus of your small business, we can put together a mobile application that will provide your current customers with all the bells and whistles that they will love, including making reservations online, writing on your fan wall, placing any type of orders, loyalty programs, QR code coupons, scheduling appointments, ordering items online, and more. Visit our mobile app page for more information, or feel free to contact us at any time with your questions.
