Our take
Mobile apps have fast proved to be both more engaging and more accessible than websites, with a seamless mobile experience having the ability to grow brand loyalty and increase repeat purchases. Despite this, businesses still struggle to develop user-friendly, optimized mobile apps; leaving many to be downloaded, flipped through, and then never opened again. Airship delivers a mobile app experience platform to enable brands to develop the best mobile apps, that customers will return to again and again.
The customer lifecycle on an app encompasses acquisition, activation, engagement and loyalty – downloading, opening, interacting with and returning to the application. Where companies are failing, says Airship, is in the last three steps, by treating their apps more like promotional channels than a destination for sales. To overcome this, Airship helps brands build exciting, tailored in-app customer experiences that reward engagement, to build loyalty and keep customers using the app into the future. Its platform is comprehensive, so all stages of the process can be viewed and controlled from a single place.
As a leader in customer engagement, Airship is positioned well to capitalize on the fast adoption of mobile applications, as companies seek to optimize customer experiences in this vital sales channel. The company has partnered with and acquired other technologies in the space and has added no-code native app editing to its platform, bolstering its own product offering to a wider market into the future.
