Hey,

Good News for the app industry:According to an recent article of the Australian Financial Review smartphones will play a leading role in changing consumers' behaviour over the next four years as the number of these gadgets in use more than doubles (Corrigan, 2011).

Essentials from the article:

1. There will be more people connected to news sites via apps and the mobile web than through computers by 2014. Businesses not prepared for this transition will have major difficulties staying in the market.

2. Apple is expected to retain its place at the head of the Australian smartphone market for at least another three years.

3. 'Once people have bought a lot of apps and got used to the system, they are reluctant to buy them again on another platform.'

Hey everyone,

Here is some great feedback from Seymour Toyota and 5 reasons why every car dealer should have an app:

"1. Image - to be on the App Store is a bit of a buzz and adds credibility to your online/technology image.  It sets us ahead of the pack as progressive dealer.

2. Home screen of customers iphone's has our logo on it!! Every time they look at their phone we are there.

3. On vehicle handover, we show them how easy it is to download and teach them how to book in services or search for stock etc on the app.  It adds more interaction between the customer and dealership staff.  We achieve a different type of delivery experience.

4. All our staff have it on their phones and it creates a talking point with them and their network groups away from the dealership.

5. Cost is low compared to other forms of communication."
