Fed-up with the 9-5 routine? Want a bit of adventure in your life? Read on…
We recently came across this story which changed our way of thinking: medium.com/@stuartkhall/how-i-got-2-3m-app-downloads-without-spending-a-cent-on-marketing-f4823b6bc779
It’s written by the founder of appbot.co/ who explains how he created an app in 6 hours, generated millions of downloads and was acquired by a big company. We believe the key is:
- build a team with complementary skills and vision
- have fun: you’re much more creative and energized when you work on what you like
- keep things simple: few hours/days of work (max) before releasing first version
- think big: only work on ideas which have potential for growth
- be data-driven: use analytics to measure what’s working/not working and improve from there
The way we want to work together as a team?
- Find an idea the whole team is excited about
- Build an MVP and use marketing/analytics to promote it and measure performance
- Continue iterating if the app shows positive impact
- Pivot or start with another idea if not
The good thing is that a lot of work (whether development or digital marketing) can be re-used from 1 app to another, so every time it becomes easier/faster to release a new app and iterate.
We’re convinced that by following this approach, sooner (rather than later) one of the ideas will fly and be a big hit!.
The reason for this Ad is that we need someone with Mobile App coding skills to take ideas to market: you
And here is the deal we want to offer you:
- you join the team and work for free on your spare time like the rest of us
- you work only on the ideas you are excited about and ignore the rest
- you can leave whenever you want (you’re not stuck with us if you don’t like us or the ideas)
- you get an equal share of whatever profit comes out (we would be 3 including you, so we all get 1 third of success)
