App concept & strategy

Mobile app (marketing) concept & strategy

Great apps start with a plan

Without a strong concept and a well-thought-out strategy, your app can never be successful. Since 2011, Pinch has been building first-class apps for big brands such as Qmusic, De Telegraaf, and NRC. We like to think critically about the concept and strategy. With our Discovery approach, we offer a comprehensive and in-depth concept and strategy process, including prototyping and user testing.

A solid foundation

A good concept and a well-thought-out strategy for your app are not only crucial to developing an app that meets the target audience’s needs, provides a better user experience, and distinguishes itself from competing apps, but also for making the right platform choices, determining scope, and developing a smart marketing strategy.A well-conceived concept and a well-thought-out strategy are critical to the ultimate success of the mobile platform. While coding errors can be relatively easily fixed, improving a poorly conceived concept is much more difficult. Nevertheless, more companies should pay more attention to this.

The Pinch approach

Pinch doesn’t just do what customers ask for. For example, we analyze objectives, target audience, competition, user needs, and revenue models. Then, we optimize the concept and strategy. We follow our twelve-step plan in our agile approach and the sprints of 2 weeks

With Pinch Discovery, we offer a comprehensive concept and strategy process. We involve our concept developers, all of whom have over a decade of experience in the mobile industry and possess strong consultancy skills. They assist in developing and validating the concept, provide extensive advice, and guide clients throughout the entire process from start to finish. Pinch Discovery can be applied to new app concepts, but it is also suitable for further optimizing existing apps with this approach.

Creating a well-thought-out concept requires time, energy, research, expertise, and experience. Within our Discovery service, we embark on a two-week deep dive together with the client. The fundamental focus is to determine whether the app is fit for the user, fit for business, and fit for delivery.

During the first week, we conduct research and brainstorm about various aspects, such as the client’s strategy, objectives, KPIs, and ambitions. We also delve into questions like: Who are the users? What products do they use? What user data is available? And how is the website currently being utilized?

In the second week of the Discovery sprint, we transform the insights gained into actionable plans. Collaborating with the client, we define the app’s functionalities and create a prototype with as many essential features for end-users as possible. Towards the end of the week, we validate the prototype with real end-users to ensure its effectiveness.

Discovery is our recommended and most comprehensive approach for establishing a solid app foundation for the future. We have successfully completed this process with our clients for apps like Qmusic and GreenFlux Charge Assist. Additionally, we offer more streamlined versions for a quick scan or a shortened Discovery process that spans one or two days.
