3 Ways a Custom Mobile App Earns a High ROI

There is about a 50 percent chance you’re reading this on your smartphone. People depend on these pocket sized devices for everything from ordering dinner to navigating freeways, not to mention making an actual phone call once in a while. Because people spend so much time on their mobile devices, it is critical for business owners to earn valuable real estate on their customers’ homescreens. The best way to do that, whether you’re a baker, a lawyer or an auto mechanic, is with a custom mobile app for your small business.
Putting your business’ icon on your customers’ smartphone will ensure you’re seen by them on a daily basis. While visibility is great, what ultimately matters is sales. If you’re wary of putting money into a mobile app for your business, be sure to consider the return on investment (ROI) it can yield. While apps can have many features, from tip calculators to appointment schedulers, these three features are designed to boost your bottom line.
Customer Rewards
People love coupons, discounts and other ways of saving money. By converting savings opportunities into reward based programs, you can keep customers coming back time and time again. One of the more popular rewards programs is a digital stamp card, in which a customer must purchase a certain number of goods or services before receiving a discount. Another option is sending digital scratch off cards to app users that reveals a percentage off, thus drawing them back to your store. There are many more ways to apply rewards programs into a mobile app for any type of business, and all of them are proven to build revenue.
Referral Programs
A customer referral program allows you to reward your existing clients for sending more business to your shop. They do so by sending a text or email referral to their friends and family. Their unique code that is sent with their message allows them to earn rewards for every person they refer that actually spends money at your business. Not only do the rewards they receive bring them back to the store, but they’re literally sending new customers to your doors to earn the benefits they’re after.
Push Notifications
A primary reason for developing a custom mobile app is to be able to maintain regular communications with your customers. Once a user has downloaded your app you will be able to send them push notifications, which is similar to receiving a regular text message or getting a notification from a social media channel on your phone. You can use push notifications to inform users of sales, remind them of upcoming service needs, request feedback or reviews or anything else that may help you draw them back to your business. Push notifications are a fast and secure way of staying connected with your clients.
