I have developed a Shopify App that runs on mobile (both iOS and android) and the web. It’s a dashboard that displays a shop’s up-to-the-minute profitability and other key metrics (It even removes expenses like facebook ads in realtime…). It also presents this information in a fun way and for FREE. It has a paid experience where the user can browse his or her shop metric history. We did a lot of research in the Shopify App store and discovered no one else is offering a similar mobile app that provides these metrics.
I have worked night and day for over a year on this project and one thing that has been very helpful is that I have had one merchant (also my business partner) who uses the mobile app on a regular basis and he gives feedback and after a lot of refinement he has come to love the app. Of course since he is my business partner he is also bias.
What I am seeking now is a small broader base (let’s say 10 users) who are willing to install the app on their Shopify shop and mobile device so they can experience it first hand and hopefully give me feedback to guide further development. In return for feedback I’m willing to give the the paid version of the app free for life.
My question is does anyone know the best way of reaching out and connecting with my first 10 users? Is there any other thing I could offer them on top of free for life usage that might help entice them? Or in general does anyone have any other suggestions on how I can illicit feedback on my App?
Thank you, I am really excited about creating a truly excellent experience and I know I need the help of the people who will use the product everyday and for real to make the final and most important touches!
