There’s no doubt that mobile has invaded countless aspects of our everyday lives, lives which are in turn getting increasingly connected. From waking up in the morning to visiting a restaurant, booking a trip or yet again making a purchase, using one’s smartphone has become second nature for most of us. In that respect, the influence of mobile and its characteristics on the desktop web comes as no surprise.

Now that you’ve built the perfect app for your restaurant, the perfect tourism app, or "insert your area of expertise" app, it’s time to start engaging your audience. One of the most effective ways to make sure your users don’t forget about your app? Push notifications. Now, if you are wondering how to up your notification game, here’s a clue: 🙂
