2. Create our own Pricing Strategy

Pricing is one of the leading factors that determine your client numbers. According to a survey, the applications with ‘Free’ and ‘Freemium’ have achieved greater success when compared to the ‘Paid’ applications. When you are confident about your application, that it tempts your clients to pay and use ‘Freemium’ is the best choice.

According to a survey conducted in Germany, USA and UK ‘Free’ and ‘Freemium’ applications were downloaded 60% and only 40% to ‘Paid’ applications. Surprisingly the percentage was the same at all the three countries of the survey. If your organization in serious need of money then chooses ‘Paid’ type of application. But make sure that your application is up to the standards; because when money comes into the play, expectations will grow higher and higher.
