I have received a lot of PMs about my post (over a year ago?) regarding the time that I made $4K doing something like this for businesses.</span><br />
<br />
I'm not responding to PMs about this anymore. However, I feel obligated to respond right now because I don't want to lead anyone down the wrong path.</b><br />
<br />
Yes, I made money reskinning apps for B2B. But no, I don't have advice about how you can do it too. And it was the hardest money that I ever made.<br />
<br />
But here's what I did:<br />
<br />
I was making money B2B - basically selling apps to restaurants and other small businesses. I charged a min of $4,000 per simple app. Some apps were in the $12k range. I sort of built up a collection of themes and basically just reskinned, while trying to add as much value as possible. The real selling point was a custom push notification system that I created then resold. But everything was just too complex. <br />
<br />
Then problem was that the market quickly became saturated with DYI platforms that allowed you to build an app for like $49. At the same time, apps tend to be a bad investment for a business. Business owners don't understand how to use them and customers don't really want to download the app. I also did a lot of things wrong from the business side.<br />
<br />
It was literally a nightmare trying to sell this shit. I wouldn't recommend it to anybody. I did make money, but I feel like I lost 16 months of my life on a stupid business.<br />
<br />
Also, unless you are a dev it's hard to deal with the complexities and constant changes/updates. I have completely moved away from businesses that require a lot of communication with developers. That was hard, and I'm good at it.<br />
<br />
As far as B2C reskinning goes. I tried that for fun. Made some money. It didn't really seem like a real business to me. So I got out of that too. <br />
<br />
So yea, I'm out of the app game and I'm not looking back. <br />
<br />
I'm sure there is plenty of money to be made though. I'm just not full of advice about how to make money in the app store. You can probably find some more experienced people. There are plenty of people who made a lot of money, then started selling courses about how to do it after their app businesses crashed. So just watch who you take advice from.<br />
<br />
Sorry that I can't be much of a help. Just wanted to clear things up.<br />
<br />
And to be clear, there is nothing special about apps. It just seemed like an interesting thing to sell at the time and I needed money. So I picked up the phone and sold. I sent emails and sold. I went door to door and sold. You can do the same thing with something way less complicated.</div>
