“Rescue Assignment” – Team MobileFirst engages with teams to deliver half-baked, incomplete projects which need consulting support for go-to-market. We have shipped 8 rescue assignments in past 2 years. Our success ratio of delivering rescue assignment is 100%.

For Combat Academy platform we used TeamWork for project management. We started with 2 weekly team-wide standup calls to bring everything up to speed. Everything was directly committed to Bitbucket Client repositories. We internally call this as ‘Extended Team Model’. We delivered first version of both the mobile apps in 10 weeks sprint. This involves understanding existing issues, new features & growth engineering.

GROWTH AS A SERVICE

MobileFirst also provided growth services to Combat Academy. We have created a ‘Growth Readiness Checklist’ to help companies plan their growth strategy.

Personalised App Experience

We deployed deep linking in social, email & push notifications campaigns. This has helped bring users back to the application more often. We have utilised Deep Linking platform on marketing campaigns as well, this helped us understand user behaviours in better way. Deep Linking helped us to provide personalised app experience to users, and higher app engagement time.

Context Aware Applications

Sharing was most essential part of Combat platform. We deployed Open Graph tags while sharing from mobile & web applications. This generated organic views on social media platforms & communication applications with rich media content. App Indexing with Search API was a key deliverable for our growth service.
