Traditional forms of promotion or Digital Marketing are occupying a large budget of businesses, but the establishment of mobile apps enable business to have a free marketing tool now.
Send push notification to customers when the business has a new product, incentive program, stimulus voucher, etc. This is an important and completely free feature that mobile apps bring. On the contrary, SMS Marketing and Email Marketing are costly tools and always considered “spam” compared to messages received from mobile apps.
When customers install mobile apps on their phones, it means the business is getting free branding every day to customers. The app icon (company logo) becomes a constant in the mind of customers every time they open their phones, combined with receiving useful notifications and offers.
