Recording: The Key to Mobile Success:
Know Your User

Skype…Rue La La…American Greetings…

All have successful mobile products that have added significant value to their respective brands. All of which have a look, feel, value proposition and use case that is distinct from their parent web products. The marketers and developers behind these products understood that developing successful mobile offerings boils down to one simple rule – know your user.

The advent of user friendly, web enabled smart phones has created a tremendous branding (and revenue) opportunity, but in the rush to take advantage of that opportunity many companies simply replicate their web offerings onto a mobile platform - a misstep that can mean the difference between a mobile phenomenon and failure.

Join Nitzan Shaer, founder of High Start Group and Skype Mobile, and Cimarron Buser, VP of product and marketing at Apperian, for a conversation about developing killer mobile applications for your end user.
