As the intrusion of enterprise mobility in various businesses continues to grow, entrepreneurs are looking for newer approaches to make money from them. Millions and millions of people are using smart phones across the globe and this amazing device has revolutionized our present and as well as the future. However, many business owners are still in the bewildered state of mind because of this sudden evolution. Hurriedly, they also have adopted enterprise apps, but still unaware of what to do with them. They are confused about how to induct them in their business to increase revenue from them. In this context, I remember an old saying "problems are opportunities to improve yourself".

Most entrepreneurs believe that developing an iOS compatible app and getting it inducted in the Apple store is the easiest way to earn money as you earn USD 0.99 per app. I am sure most of you would say "no thanks" to this opportunity because from your USD 0.99, Apple would deduct 30 percent as its own revenue. Thus, you are left with only USD 0.67. You want to know more about this? Okay, let me spill the beans now.

I feel, not many ...
... entrepreneurs know about the number of downloads per app in an app store and thus, consider including app in their company as a long shot with no guaranteed success. Suppose your app is downloaded 1000 times, the revenue earned by you would be USD 670, if your app is priced at USD 99. Now calculate the amount of revenue, if it is downloaded 1 million times.

Paid apps are not the only way of earning from your app these days. Smarter brains of smarter enterprises have devised several other ways to earn revenue out of them even if it is available for free. The first method is to get two apps developed - the free version and the paid version and releasing the free version with some limited but most influential functions of your business. Also, make sure that you send regular push notifications to your users reminding about the paid version of your apps and its benefits.

The second method is to run an ad campaign in your app and earn from it. Several advertising companies would join you willingly because of the popularity of this concept. All you have to do is show their ads on the bottom of your app and in turn take a handsome amount of money.

The decision of selecting free or paid apps is very tricky because researches have shown that free apps generate more revenue than paid apps. Now you must be thinking why? Because paid apps are downloaded by those who want it or those who are willing to pay for it. On the other hands, trends say that no one bothers about free apps before downloading them. They keep on downloading them, doesn’t matter they need them or not. Thus, the number of app users keeps on augmenting along with the viewers for those ads. Moreover, more users for your free app mean more potential clients for its paid version. Selection of the right platform can also help business owners a lot in earning revenue from their free apps.

Through free apps, you can show a variety of ads whenever you feel like. Since every ad has a different payout plan, business owners can make a good amount of revenue from them.

The point here is, no matter how your enterprise app is fulfilling the goals that you had in your mind when you adopted it, it can continue to bring revenues for you. You just have to be clever enough to avail the opportunities.
