Timing is everything. This week’s xyHt cover story was about GPS and technology pioneer Charlie Trimble. You can’t read the story (see link below blog) without being struck by how the innovation and entrepreneurial spirit of the satellite age has given rise to our current mobile revolution. The location services that we take for granted on today’s smartphones and tablets make nearly every single consumer and business app more powerful and useful. For mobility software developers like TerraGo, we get to...as the article’s author Gavin Schrock so aptly puts it… “stand on the shoulders of giants” like Trimble, leaving us to innovate, to focus on new features that tap into the amazing potential of location, free to break through barriers of time, space, workflow and collaboration that would otherwise be impossible.

Tip #4: Brand

We live in the era of the brand. I speak with so many companies and government organizations that ultimately want their employees, customers, partners, and citizens using a mobile app that reinforces their brand. You know exactly how this goes. You can’t get a private label COTS product from the big platform backend systems we just discussed. So, you either abandon your hopes and dreams, or you hire some developers or a systems integrator to create your mobile app. Voila. What next?
