“I actually launched the business about two to three months before the iPhone launch. So, some may say that’s foresight. To be perfectly honest, I think it was a lot more luck than foresight.”
“Product is just one aspect of your app growth strategy. The other key element is obviously how you market that. You need to balance the two.”
“There is no such thing as an average user.”
“If you can’t retain your users, you don’t actually have an app business.”
