Services Offered
iPhone, iPad + Android app design & development
Together with my partner, Jiva DeVoe, we offer the ultimiate app design and development service. Jiva is one of the best iOS developers in the Northern Hemisphere. He’s an author, blogger, and software developer with nearly 20 years of experience in the software industry. If your app can be nothing but premium, drop me a note.
1-on-1 Jam Sessions to jump start your app project
My 1-on-1 jam sessions are unique cranium snapping conversations for surfacing opportunities and zooming in strategies for your mobile app. Cost is $350 with 10% donated to charity. Exclusively on the phone. Game plans and brilliance guaranteed. The conversation usually runs about an hour and I review your app concept in advance. Email me a few lines about your app and where you want to take it, or just send me a link to your site. If I feel that I can add value and the timing works, then we schedule a skype or phone session. I usually book two to four weeks in advance.
Project management for both mobile and web
Don’t waste your money by letting your project run over scope and budget. With well over 20 years IT management – most of it at Microsoft – I’m a stickler for the details. If you have the design and development team in place, contact me to make sure it all comes together without a hitch.
Mobile app marketing and promotion
Give your app the buzz and pizzaz it needs to stand out from the millions of others. We’re talking the complete strategy. Have a new app? We’ll kick off marketing before we even begin to design. Have an existing app? We’ll build on the momentum you already created. Get in touch if you want to leverage secrets and tips that only someone would know after being in the market for five years!
User experience analysis & design
Professional and honest feedback from users will make your designs stand out from the rest. Usability isn’t a buzz word. It works. I breath it. Love it. Getting inside users’ heads to discover what makes them fall in love with apps is my passion. Let’s talk.
Public Speaking
I love to share, laugh and engage. Some of my favorite topics are mobile app design and promotion. Food, health and wellness. And finding meaning and peace in life. If you would like me to present at your event, drop me a note.
