With our app builder, anyone can build apps, one project at a time, but one can also use our Unlimited apps offer and start selling apps to clients. A business opportunity which attracts developers, looking to give clients back office access easily, designers, with the skills to customize the look and feel of an app through our API settings Add-On, and also, agencies. Some clients have even started their agency with GoodBarber only. So, to finish the year with a bang, today, we give you top quotes from our Resellers, to inspire you for the year to come.

Attention GoodBarbers, this year again, Apple made its Winter Holiday Schedule public. In case you didn't get the memo, please find the company's announcement below:

Last year, we decided to wish our GoodBarbers a Merry Christmas in the best way we could think of, with a beautiful app. One year later, we wanted to tell you the tale of how our Do It Yourself Christmas app came to life one beautiful December morning. 

Christmas is the perfect time of the year to connect with your audience. Customers are excepting a slight increase in the number of emails they receive and solicitations overall, which makes for perfect timing, as long as you communicate appropriately that is. How? Here are a few tips.

The end of the year is near, which means it’s already time to have a look back at 2016! Figures of a KPCB report on Internet Trends depict what looks like a promising future for app creation in 2017, in developed and affluent countries, where mobile penetration is high, among which Germany, Italy, Korea, Japan, Russia and of course, the USA.

This week's feature, Fire Breathing Penguin Media, is an American agency offering mobile apps, websites, and video production to give clients from a large variety of industries high quality products while remaining reasonable and approachable. We love their down to earth vibe and creativity that seems to set them apart—the name alone intrigued us and we had to hear more. 

In addition to having access to an unlimited number of app backends, with our reseller program also comes a unique interface, called the Reseller Dashboard, serving as a control panel for managing all things related to your account. This video will give you a brief overview of everything it can do, as well as how to go about getting one of your own. 

For the second year in a row we decided to attend the AppDays, the leading event related to everything mobile held in France. In 2014, we couldn't make the trip because the dates coincided with the Web Summit event in Dublin. As a result, AppDays 2015 was our first experience, and a positive one which is why we decided to make the trip again in 2016, with the intention to share our expertise in software development and the evolution of GoodBarber. 

Special seasons and holidays are great for increasing profits and revenue in almost all business sectors. It’s a fact that shoppers tend to spend more during special seasons and holidays. What a great opportunity for you! If your business is small, no need to feel intimidated by the bigger companies with a larger promotion budget than you—there’s a lot of things you can do to increase your brand awareness. In this article, I will discuss what you should be doing if you want to position your product as a customer choice.

After "Winning in the app economy", today we share with you insights from Web Summit 2016 with the "Building for an era of makers" conference. As a company, we do take pride in being a part of the DIY phenomenon and were curious to hear what Iris Lapinski, Founder and CEO of Apps for Good, had to say on stage as she joined the Minister of Education of Portugal, Tiago Rodrigues in the panel.

The spirit of GoodBarber has been entrepreneurial from day one. After all, not only are our co-founders entrepreneurs themselves, but beyond starting a company, with our app builder we also enable entrepreneurs to start their businesses, or at least accompany them as they evolve their existing activity on mobile. A crucial role to play in a world where smartphone apps now dominate the desktop web!

Web Summit 2016, it's a wrap, and we have a lot to share with you this year! With so many different conferences and renowned speakers of different backgrounds confronting their expertise and points of view, Web Summit is really the place to learn from the best. Now, as a little sneak peek, we wanted to share some of our favorite quotes from this year's Web Summit edition, in Lisbon.

While attending Web Summit, we've sat through several conferences, with speakers ranging from the likes of Ryan Hoover, founder of Product Hunt, to actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt (also director of hitRECord company), or yet again, Till Faida, Founder & CEO of Adblock plus. All this to say that  topics, as you can imagine, address all sorts of problematics. Today, we give you the best of: "Winning in the app economy", with key takeaways from Scott Arpajian, CEO, Softonic, and Charles Manning, CEO, Kochova :

With more and more solutions available for developers and even non tech savvy entrepreneurs to make their own apps, it’s never been more important to focus on user experience and a great mobile design. Why? Because these two elements are what will make your app stand out.

Web Summit is about to start! João and Michele have already made it to Lisbon, Dumè , Hazal and Isabella are making the trip from Ajaccio, as for Jérôme and Sébastien , they'll arrive tomorrow. Give us a shout out on social media if you're attending too, we're looking forward to networking!

The Agency Spotlight series showcases some of our best reseller clients who have learned to use the platform in great ways to add to the success of their agency. The latest featured agency is an Italian leader in graphic design, web, and app development, covering an impressive range of industries from cinema, to fashion, to local businesses. Their beautifully designed website spurred our interest in their work and the story behind the making of Hago ADV.

Of course Halloween isn’t the only time of the year your heart rate leaps! Being an App creator is a stressful, scary at times, business anyway. We just thought it’d be fun to tackle 4 App Creator nightmares and see how, with the right attitude and a little help from us, making or running an App can become a dream come true ;)

Inspiring success stories are amazing. However, with social media in particular, the exposure to what other people are doing out there is constant, to a point where it almost hinders the pursuit of our own goals. We tend to value the entrepreneurial figure so much that we forget how there is often a team behind all great personal achievements, whether it be the support of family and friends, or on the other hand, negative vibes and a lack of support that both motivate in completely different ways. All this to say that “no man is an island”, which is why we cannot stress enough the importance of getting feedback early on, even before getting started at all with the creation of your Beautiful App.

If you have a publisher account on Google Play, chances are you’ve recently received an email warning you that, as of November 29, 2016, apps that haven’t been assigned proper content ratings may be blocked in certain territories or for specific users, or even be taken off Google Play altogether.

With new mobile centric customer behaviors, monetizing one's app seems to be an attainable goal, now more than ever before. Yet, questions such as which positioning to adopt or, what are the solutions to consider to make a mobile app profitable, remain to be assessed. Ready for a quick overview?

The engagement of one’s app should be monitored closely and your communication strategy adapted accordingly. Thing is, users can fall in love with an app in a second, but they can also be quick to forget about it, unless they are “mobilized”, namely with push notifications. Now, of course, it doesn’t hurt to have an engaging concept to begin with...

For our next featured agency, we are proud to introduce Proexe, a Polish company with some quite impressive accomplishments under their belt. Maciej, the CEO of Proexe, will give us some insight into his success.

We told you we hadn’t seen the last of App Store improvements. So, what’s in store this time around? As of October 5, 2016, iOS publishers will be equipped with a brand new tool to improve the discoverability of their app: Search Ads.
