What to tell to clients if I provide them free Apps
Share on: 
fb share twitter share gplus share more share

Hello
I was thinking of providing app (built using free app making sites) to clients but how will I approach them?

Most of the free app maker sites will allow you to make apps of your website content .. like put url, put images, put texts and done....

How will these apps be useful to my clients?
Plz give me some idea.

Thanks

I can convert your Non-Responsive website to Responsive website ... How sweet is that? :)

They are useful to clients so that their web visitors have an easy time finding what they need when accessing their site on a mobile device. Include a redirect script from their main site. Most desktop sites look awful and are very difficult to navigate from a smart phone.

Try giving them away with a monthly hosting fee so you make some $$$ at least. Be prepared though....even giving stuff away is not as easy as it sounds when it comes to business owners. The trap you may fall into is that because you are giving them away for free, there is no value in them. Perception is reality.

Usually the businesses that want something for FREE isn't going to pay you a lot down the road. Giving a site or app away for free and then charging for hosting is a nice plan. Maybe instead of charging them monthly break it down into 4 quarterly payments or an annual payment. That way you don't have to worry about them bailing out and not paying.
