    The Right App for the Right Target Audience – A Recipe for Success

    In a capitalist or market-driven economy is it said that the Customer is King! And indeed, it is. Customers don’t vote with a ballot paper, but they vote with their feet, on in the case of mobile apps with their fingertips. If your mobile app is not working for them, isn’t solving their problems, and isn’t appealing to their senses they will simply uninstall it and switch to a rival app. They are more likely to give you a lower rating and a negative review as well.

    So, why does this may happen? The answer can lie in one of the simplest yet strongest ideas of the target audience! A target audience is the set of users who may be interested in a particular service or product or idea and as a mobile app service provider, you need to consider their future needs and work towards solving their problems.

    Launching an app and marketing it among users is one of the most important stages in taking your business online or towards the fortification of your unique idea. The success comes to those who hit the bull’s eye in finding their target audience. After all, before knowing who is going to consume what you are creating, generating, and producing, how can you even begin doing so? No one can afford to waste time chasing the wrong set of audiences to realize later that all the efforts, time, and money have gone down the drain.

    Identify Your Target Audience

    The process of research starts with asking appropriate questions and you can start by asking yourself some of the following questions:

    • What needs and problems does my appointed to solve? For a long-standing business, this should be fairly easy but for new startups, it may take some time and elaborate research, interviews, and surveys.
    • Who are our current target customers? Ask around about the persona and profile of your current customers. Ask pointed questions of executives and sales representatives to create segments of different types of customers based on their buying habits, needs, socio-economic profile, etc.
    • Where does my competition stand? If you are oblivious to your competition then sooner, rather than later, it is going to eat away your business and come up with a superior app. Recall how Instagram was chipping away at Facebook’s base and then the latter decided to buy it.
    • What do we offer to our customers that is unique and life-changing? What features does your app offer that no other app does? Can you boast of some USPs of the app that are lacking in other apps?

    And, can make a statement like“<<MY APP>>creates a unique experience to access <<PRODUCT/SERVICE NAME>> and helps<<MY USERS>>to fulfill<<THEIR NEEDS>>better.”
