## Description

How to Build a Billion Dollar App [Berkowski, George] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. How to Build a Billion Dollar App

Review: Incredible book for multiple levels of App Builders - George really wanted for the reader to have a view from the inside of both the experienced entrepreneur and first time entrepreneur. He recounts the stories of a lot of people he knows and the businesses they’ve gone through. Then he spends some time talking about mobile genetics and why is it that mobile presents the most exciting opportunities now. At the end of the first part he goes into what makes an idea a billion dollar idea. George takes the reader through a variety of different frameworks like the human universals and how the apps actually tap in to these universals. The second part of the book is called The Journey and that’s where George explains the different steps of building a billion dollar app and how a variety of different companies have done it such as Instagram, Snapchat and others. He analyzes how they went through the step by step growth. After that he talks about the ten million dollar app and the key idea is achieving what’s called product market fit and thats where he thinks a lot of apps trip up. It gets into the practicalities, the exercises and operational bits that you need in order to achieve product market fit. Step three is about the hundred million dollar app and not very many companies get to this realm. This is about how to not only earn revenue but also profit. If you make it through that step the author takes you through the five hundred million dollar app stage which is scaling your business. It’s taking something that is profitable and how to sink some deep roots and make it work internationally. The last section of the book is about the billion dollar app. A huge part of this section is advice from billion dollar CEO’s and how to manage this kind of organization on a billion dollar scale. The message I want to communicate is it’s about the passion, building a great company and adding value. If you can get the perfect intersection of all these things, you have a good chance of building a successful and spectacular business. George Berkowski hit a home run with this book. We had the opportunity to interview him on this book so if you would like more information you can check out The Entrepreneurs Library episode 37.
Review: Good, but not for me - Pretty good book. This is the book for you if you want to launch an app and turn it into a billion dollar business. It covers all sorts of apps (social media, games, services, etc.) and provides real world examples of how similar people achieved success (including the author himself, who helped launched Hailo, a cab hailing service). That being said, the book was TOO big picture for me. I’m going to leave my rating at five stars, because it’s clearly titled with its goal of helping you reach a billion dollar valuation for your app, but I was looking for a simple guide on how to launch a small gaming app company on the side as a weekend hobby, generating a reasonable goal of $10-$50 a day in ad revenue. I wanted a book that would help me with some factors I overlooked in terms of business, like marketing or the beta testing process or growing your user base. This book definitely does that, but then includes a dozen more topics that I’ll never use, like how to secure seed funding or how to hire a quality business partner. Interesting stuff, but information I will probably never need. Overall - good for those of you that want to aim high and start the next Facebook or Uber. If reaching a billion dollars is an unrealistic goal to you, look elsewhere for a more focused book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty Good
*by D***D on December 22, 2016*

I thought I was buying a book that would teach me how to actually create an app. This is more so a book of after you create the app. It's very good. As soon as I figure out how to create a app I know I will be referencing a lot things the author has talked about. I found my self taking a lot of notes while reading. This is a great book and I still have about 35 pages to go
