Thursday: Golden Gekko launches DIY mobile applications service

Golden Gekko has just launched the alpha version of the Mobile Applications Wizard that allows anyone to create their own mobile brochure applications to respond to the growing appetite for useful and entertaining mobile applications on application stores across the globe. These iPhone-like apps, which can run on any kind of phone, are ideal for extending the reach of businesses of all sizes. The service enables the rapid, easy and cost efficient implementation of mobile applications across more than 2,000 different mobile devices including Symbian, Blackberry, Windows Mobile, Linux Mobile, Android and essentially all Java enabled handsets.

Golden Gekko is now able to offer our clients the Mobile Applications Wizard, giving you the opportunity to create your own mobile applications, at minimal cost. The Wizard is used primarily to create impactful mobile brochures, which are similar in functionality to a PDF optimised for the mobile phone. Golden Gekko believes the service will be of particular interest to the SME market, owing to the relatively low costs involved. The service is easy to use and enables companies of all sizes to benefit from mobile marketing.

“We know that mobile brochures are a superior way of engaging with consumers, bringing brands to life and providing value-added services to customers that will meet their needs whilst providing entertainment,” says CEO Magnus Jern. “For time-pressured SMEs the ability to provide their customers with mobile content is a powerful differentiator in a crowded and competitive market.”

Our clients testing out the service have already generated over 1 million downloads of the brochures proving that it will become an instant success!
