Mobile App Development

All successful apps start with great ideas. But not all great ideas lead to successful apps. The path to success begins with a sound mobile app strategy. At SERP Matrix, the mobile app strategy phase begins with our teams and clients researching the market, need, and potential user base — and then culminates when all stakeholders gather together in a multi-day discovery session.

Each application has its own features and complexity so mobile application development can start from $1,000 USD to $100,000 USD or more based on scope and complexity. To get your ballpark cost you can click here to request a quote.

SERP Matrix will deconstruct your idea, marry it with user needs, then align it with your business goals. Key members of our team collaborate with you during a series of exercises to analyze the opportunity from every angle. And once we get to the very core of the idea — the place where the user’s value proposition and your business needs intersect — we’ll define the initial version and your app’s minimum viable product (MVP). And if during discovery, we find the idea doesn’t solve key user problems or satisfy a business goal, then we’ll help you redirect and take a different approach, rather than waste your time and money.

Either way, at the end of our app strategy phase, all parties are aligned on the project goals and the MVP. And only then does the project move into the app design phase.

MOBILE APP STRATEGY: HIGH-LEVEL GOALS

Our mobile app strategy phase is based upon the following high-level goals:

• Determine what to build, and for whom
• Identify and reduce unknowns
• Assess costs and timing
• Optimize budget, schedule, and goals
• Gain alignment from all stakeholders

If you have an app idea and would like to share it with us, we do sign an NDA to make sure your idea is secured and not spread anywhere else except with our working team.

We assign a project manager to your project who will talk with you on behalf of the team and provide you with all updates and manage the project till its deployment.

The project manager will secure all the communication that happened between you; in the document and send documents to you for your confirmation; upon your approval; he will pass all documentation to our team.

MOBILE APP STRATEGY: DISCOVERY EXERCISES

We’ll take you through the following exercises during your discovery workshop:

• Business strategy and product review
• Key Performance Indicators (KPI) definition
• User personas, use-cases, and primary user journeys
• Feature ideation, definition, and prioritization
• Product positioning review
• Technical and system review
• Design review
• Monetization review
• Launch and post-launch review

To make the application a success – you must review again with what purpose you got the application developed? Do you have solid marketing strategies for the users you are targeting? Do you have enough funding to manage solid marketing?

If you have the answers above, then based on the answers you can prepare the action plan and reach the end-users.
