De: George Berkowski

Narrado por: Christopher Ragland

The ultimate guide to building an app-based business - now revised and updated

Apps have changed the way we communicate, shop, play, interact and travel, and their phenomenal popularity has presented possibly the biggest business opportunity in history.

In How to Build a Billion Dollar App, serial tech entrepreneur George Berkowski gives you exclusive access to the secrets behind the success of the select group of apps that have achieved billion-dollar success.

Berkowski draws exclusively on the inside stories of the billion-dollar app club members, including Instagram, Whatsapp, Snapchat, Candy Crush and Uber, to provide all the information you need to create your own spectacularly successful mobile business. He guides you through each step, from an idea scribbled on the back of an envelope through to finding a cofounder, building a team and attracting (and keeping) millions of users, all the way through to juggling the pressures of being CEO of a billion-dollar company (and still staying ahead of the competition).

If you've ever dreamed of quitting your nine-to-five job to launch your own company, or if you're a gifted developer, a seasoned entrepreneur or just intrigued by mobile technology, How to Build a Billion Dollar App will show you what it really takes to create your own billion-dollar mobile business.

awesome

loved every bit. great details and explained every thing that is needed for the next step.

Very informative.

The examples are slightly out of date but only because of the pace technology in this space progresses. highly recommend.

Great intro into the app world

I’ve read a lot of reviews of entrepreneurs mainly stating that this book did not really offer any intuitive advice regarding the app world . Rather that it is geared toward building a billion dollar business. I can agree to some extent but I see the book as a happy medium for entrepreneurs and engineers. I have learnt a lot of things about business and applications as a whole through this audiobook. Lengthy but good . A great book for those aspiring to do something great.

must read, it will guid you

read for
1.if you wanna to buid your app
2.it will not teach you coading and programming
3.it will guid you the way, you have to just follow that way to get success

Incredibly informative, clearly very researched

As well as a good and enjoyable listen. I'm sure this simplifies building a billion dollar app too much, but useful advise for developing any tech or app based start up

For those of you who think making an app is easy..

Read this book. The author shows just how much hard work and thought goes into creating a successful app.

Intriguing Content, Preferred the kindle version

This book has some good general info for entrepreneurs in the app space, from somebody inside the business.

After doing a lot of my own research in this space, a lot of this was a refresher for me, but there were some great gems, and as an entrepreneur I'll definitely be coming back to this book.

That all being said, personally I preferred the text version of this book, as it was easier to skip to the juicy details or sections with which I wasn't already familiar. I found the dramatic cadence of the narration a bit annoying, but hey, being an app developer and coder myself, I guess I prefer text to narration when pertaining to apps? Your mileage may vary.
