Why Websites and Mobile Apps Are No Longer Enough
Making websites or mobile apps used to feel valuable. But today, every software agency can do it and sell for less. That’s a race to the bottom. To stand out, you need something deeper: industry focus.
How Industry Focus Changes the Game
When you focus on one industry, you stop competing on price and start competing on value. You solve specific problems that outsiders don’t understand. That makes you the go-to solution, not just another service provider.
My Own Experience in the Automobile Sector
I didn’t plan it, but my entry point was the automobile industry. I built solutions for my own car rental business. In doing so, I solved real problems that others in the same space also faced. Competitors were amazed by the tools because they were custom-tailored. That was my proof: there was demand for a commercial version.
Why Consolidation Beats Fragmentation
Think about restaurants. Instead of 20 different apps one for menus, one for orders, one for payments, one for scheduling you could build one system that handles everything. Consolidation creates more value and saves money for the business owner. One subscription instead of 20. One renewal date instead of many.
The Barrier That Keeps Competition Away
Yes, it’s harder. Industry-tailored apps require collaboration and real knowledge of the field. You can’t just make them up in isolation. But that’s exactly what makes them valuable. Fewer people are willing to do the work, which means fewer competitors.
The Value for Customers
The result is software that feels built for them. They see the value instantly. You become the go-to provider in that industry. With recurring subscriptions, you deliver savings, reduce headaches, and build a stronger business for yourself and your clients.
