What's new at GoodBarber? April 2022

Written by Mathieu Fancello  on  Thursday 12 May 2022

This month we present a new feature that will delight content creators who want to monetize their apps. A few weeks ago we announced the release of In-App Purchases, which allow you to sell your app's content in the form of subscriptions. Your users could then pay a subscription to access your content or a part of your content.

Today, we offer you a new possibility to take into account in your monetization strategy: remove ads from your app in exchange for a subscription. This is an extremely well-known and popular strategy among app creators, so think about it! 

You will find below the summary of improvements and updates made during the month of April 2022:

A subscription-based model is just one of the revenue models that have become an increasingly popular strategy for monetizing apps, in which users subscribe and pay a regular monthly fee for access to exclusive content on the app.

Why installment payments are right for your eCommerce app?

Written by Marie Pireddu  on  Thursday 31 March 2022

Buy now, pay later (BNPL) is becoming more popular, thanks to the seismic shift the retail industry has experienced over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

As a result of movement restrictions and lockdowns, changes in consumers’ financial circumstances, and new regulations retailers have to follow, customer behavior has changed. 

The impact is apparent in every aspect of consumer behavior — from what and how they buy to how they pay. For many retailers, customers have gone from a fairly predictable demographic to more of a moving target. 

BNPL is a magnet that you can use to attract customers to your e-commerce business. And since revenues have become more uncertain, retailers are looking for new and creative ways to attract customers. Let’s look at the advantages of offering this type of payment plan to your audience.

eCommerce: the importance of providing a great customer experience

Written by Marie Pireddu  on  Wednesday 16 February 2022

If your eCommerce has been in business for any amount of time, you already know that offering an amazing product isn’t enough to survive — let alone thrive.
Yes, the products you offer have a huge impact on the future success of your business.
But you can’t rely on product quality alone to attract, engage, and retain your customers. 
In fact, product quality is no longer the main reason consumers will do business with a certain brand. By today’s standards, it’s much more important to deliver a valuable overall experience to your eCommerce customers.

Finding great products to sell on your website and using SEO and PPC ads to drive traffic isn’t enough these days. Everybody does that. But to differentiate your business from the competition – to really stand out – you need to be hyper-focused on your customers.

If you want to stand out, stand apart, as a retailer - small or big - you need to be in the business of creating incredible experiences. The commerce piece is just an attachment that happens to make you money.

How to create an Internal Communication app for your employees

Written by Angelina Casanova  on  Wednesday 9 February 2022

The internal communication of a company includes all the communication strategies within its structure. However, digitalization, which is increasingly present in our society, has revolutionized the field of internal communication in companies. Previously relegated to the background, internal communication has now become an essential element to ensure the cohesion and involvement of employees within the company.

Consumption patterns have changed radically in recent years, as have working methods. The population is more involved in the company's approach, and the keywords are ethics and transparency. Consumers prefer brands with values that are similar to their own, as do employees, who now want to work in structures that hear and value them. 

Many companies have understood this message and have heard the demands of their clients and employees. We notice a will to break the barrier between the hierarchical superiority and the actors of the company, in order to evolve together in a better working atmosphere, more cordial, and thus to facilitate the insertion, the implication, and the productivity by the means of new tools of Internal Communication. 

There are many ways to enrich and facilitate your company's internal communication, but creating an app remains one of the most effective solutions. Creating an app for your company's internal communication offers various advantages: It allows you to share information in an optimal way, promote upward communication by giving voice to employees, and guarantee a successful integration to new employees, then throughout their careers.
In this article, we'll show you with the Daily Corp app how to make an app by following a few easy steps.
