Build, Ship, Profit is a new podcast that teaches you how to earn income from the apps you build. This show is unique because you will learn growth strategies AND watch me implement them into my own app to follow along with the results, good or bad. I share all my numbers from daily active users to monthly recurring revenue. Let's grow together!
In future episodes, we'll cover topics like:
- App Store Optimization
- Apple Search Ads
- Pricing, Marketing, & Growth strategies
- Paywall optimizations
- User Acquisition (Downloads)
- Retention strategies - keeping those users
- Get Ratings & Reviews so you can rank high organically in the App Store
