Mobile Apps Make The World Go 'Round!

It is amazing how cell phones have seemed to take over our lives. Think about it.

What is the first thing you check for when you are leaving your house in the morning? Your cell phone. It seems like we can’t even function without them. But, with technology continuously growing, I guess we don’t have a choice. All of the mobile applications available for download on cell phones allow our phones to act like our calendar, our computer, our personal assistant, and our social connection all at the same time.

I remember when I was in high school and cell phones had those computerized ringtones. Mobile applications have advanced to the place where you can now hear your own voice in your ringtone.

There also seems like there is a mobile app for everything! Even unnecessary things. I was at work the other day and one of our interns had a mobile app that made farting noises! Absolutely ridiculous! But, most importantly, mobile applications help up to improve our efficiency during the day. Business create mobile applications to make purchasing products more convenient for their customers. I have the CraigsList application on my phone that I use just about every day. Facebook, Twitter, and Foursquare are also applications that I have installed onto my phone that I use almost daily. While these three companies don’t necessarily sell a specific product, the advertisements that they display on their websites make them money. The mobile applications help them to increase their count of how many people are actively using the sites, therefore helping their case in demanding higher prices for advertisement space.

Mobile applications are not necessary and will not work for every business, but with the right product or service, providing customers with direct access to your business can help you out tremendously. Mobile applications typically work for larger corporations that have a lot of repeat customers. It could also work for a business providing some type of software or technological service and also for a smaller company that thrives within a niche category!

Have fun with your apps! They are great tools!
