Unicorn Labs makes mobile engagement work for brands with a market-proven library of mobile applications.

The Mobile Computing Wave

With over 160M iOS devices sold, 350K apps launched and 10 billion apps downloaded to date, mobile computing has hit critical masse, and the wave is only accelerating.

More to the point, it's where users are spending an increasing amount of their time, be it leisure time, work time, research time or social time.

Oh, and it will grow to encompass 10 billion users worldwide. In other words, if you are not where your audience is, then you are missing the boat.

The Apps Lifestyle Land Grab

What some call the 'apps lifestyle' is fundamentally about engaging, entertaining and activating your target audience as a devotee of your brand.

It's about finding new ways for them to 'Like' you. It's about delivering new forms of utility that previously were unimaginable, evolving once analog products into digital ones, and converting prospects into customers. This is what we mean when we talk about mobile engagement.

The irony is that we have seen this move before. Remember when the Web began its ascent back in the mid-90s? There were plenty of companies who waited to make the leap online, only to learn the hard way that the cost to secure that same 'real estate,' and establish a comparable market position only got more expensive over time.

The only difference is that this market is poised to encompass 10 Billion users worldwide!

This includes four Top 25 Apps:

  • Rabbit and Turtle's Amazing Race

How We Work

We pride ourselves on being easy to work with. What that means for you is:

  1. Free Strategic Review: In a strategic review, we will speak to the particulars of your brand, budget and timing, and how that could shape mobile strategy. In quid pro quo fashion, we will also share our learning curve of best practices and mistakes to avoid.
  2. UX Design Services (including Wireframes): We can help you evaluate multiple mobile app concepts so you can "test bake" a concept -- before committing the full budget to deploy it. Our deliverable, which is derived directly from agreed-upon use cases, is a clear, documented set of workflows, including graphical wireframes.
  3. Unicorn Engine-Base App Development: This solution combines one or more of our Unicorn Engine solutions with our in-house programming services.
  4. Custom App Development: If you have an idea for a mobile application that's not in our library, don't hesitate to ask. We have an industry-focused team of programmers, illustrators, audio engineers, animators, graphic designers and producers. Our product gets better by working with smart clients.
  5. Social Media Marketing: All of our solutions provide integrated viral sharing of a variety of media units via email, twitter and Facebook. We can even create a custom video trailer showcasing your new mobile app for you.
  6. Analytics and Ad Network Integration: We have built out modules for tracking both in-app and social sharing, as well as the ability to toggle between multiple ad networks, including iAds and AdMob ad units.
  7. Support for iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and Android-powered Devices

Don't wait. If you've got a mobile story to tell, we've got the team, tools and know-how to help you tell it very rapidly, and proudly at that.

But don't take our word for it. Download our apps, and then decide.
