Best Startup
We’re an App and web development agency. We specialise in Branding, UX/UI and development for mobile apps, websites and web apps, SaaS platforms and any other digital services.
Tell us about yourself?
I’ve worked in tech for the last 12 years. I’ve worked with companies like SAP, Dropbox, Marketo and Adobe before moving across into the app world – its an exciting technology that impacts our daily lives, so I definitely wanted to be a part of it!
If you could go back in time a year or two, what piece of advice would you give yourself?
Apps and technology change so much, and so does the market. Make sure that you stay true to your way of doing things.
Even if things are turbulent around you, if you remain clear about what you do and why, you’ll always be successful.
What problem does your business solve?
We help founders and businesses launch their digital products to solve a pain point or to fill a gap in the market.
Many of the apps and platforms that we launch come to us as an idea, and we help clients navigate from an idea, through all the designs and scoping, all the way to product development and launch.
We love seeing our clients’ realise their idea that is now turned into a reality!
What is the inspiration behind your business?
Our business runs to help other founders and idea makers create new and exciting products that change the way people do things daily!
Just like Uber did to the taxi industry, or AirBnB did to the hotel industry, our founders empower everyday people to have new and exciting ways to explore life and the world around them.
Not only do we help founders, but we also help businesses digitise their processes and make them run better.
Whether that’s to help solve an area of pain in their business process, or digitise an older manual process, we help businesses all the time to improve their efficiency!
It’s amazing to see the ROI come back from a digital project and it mean that their employees or customers have a more seamless process to interact with the business and come back time and time again to use the new platform.
What is your magic sauce?
App Boxer is unlike any other app developer.
We partner with you as an app advisor to make sure you are supported, not just through the pre-development design and scoping phases or the development itself, but also throughout the entire lifecycle of your platform.
We fundamentally believe that you’re launching a digital business and therefore need to be guided through all the areas of your launch and product to make sure its a success.
A fantastic app is not good enough on it’s own to make you stand out (even though our apps are world-class!).
You need a partner to support your entire process, and App Boxer goes the extra mile to make sure you have all the help you’ll need.
What is the plan for the next 5 years? What do you want to achieve?
As a company we are currently in three countries already, Australia (where we are the number one app developer), the United Kingdom (we’re one of the top in London) and India.
We already support clients from all over the world to help make their apps come to life!
The goal in 5 years would be to have an office in every major area around the world and be the number one company for app and software development worldwide.
What is the biggest challenge you’ve faced so far?
Our biggest challenge so far would have to be growing from a small business to a relatively decent sized one.
We started our organisation 6 years ago, just as apps were starting to pick up and smart phones were becoming more advanced.
We started with our founder Zyran, and in that time have had to change from a small business of a few employees, to one with over 65 employees in three different time zones!
Its a great challenge to have as it gives us a global mindset, to make sure we can continue to grow and support more people around the globe.
How do people get involved/buy into your vision?
If you’re looking for a digital company to support you into making your business processes better or even if you are an entrepreneur and wanted to discuss a new idea you had, reach out to us on our website (appboxer.co.uk) and one of our growth strategists will be in touch for a free consultation.
We’ll help you shape your idea, give you tangible items to action and talk about the next steps and answer any questions you may have.
We can’t wait to be able to help you navigate the digital space, and get your idea into a reality! Let’s make some magic happen!
