Getting your Android App Ideas Funded



Over the last few years, software development has been rapidly moving into the development of what we call "apps", small programs for smartphones. One of the most popular smartphone platforms on the market today is Android, and while many people have android app ideas, only a few will ever get made. As an android app developer, it is important to stand out above the crowd and get angel investors excited for your apps development idea.

The first step is of course, having an idea for an android app. Once you've made it past that hurdle, which, if you're reading this, you've probably made it over, you need to find funding. Of course, you might be able to develop your android app ideas on your own, but apps development can be extremely difficult without the support of angel investors.

The first real step before approaching angel investors with your android app ideas is to work out a pitch. You need to be able to give a professional pitch to these people or they won't take you seriously. Make sure to wear a suit, and bring a proper assortment of visual aids with you to convince them your idea is going to make them money. Apps development is not a cheap prospect, and they need to know that they can make a net profit.

Don't automatically assume these angel investors are cold-hearted individuals interested only in their profit though. Even if they don't necessarily give you funding for your android app ideas, they may give you some tips to make either the idea or your process of apps development better, so that you come out of the meeting with something other than disappointment.

Keeping all these things in mind, you can get your android app ideas looked at by angel investors, and hopefully you can make a career out of your apps development hobby.
