We want to make sure you get the most out of your consultation and have a productive discussion. To help you prepare, here are ten essential questions to consider beforehand, along with some tips on how you can answer them:
1. What problem does your no code app solve?
Tip: Clearly identify the pain points or challenges your app aims to address. For example, if you’re a small business owner in the food industry, you might want to develop an app that simplifies online food ordering for your customers, enhancing their convenience and saving time. Feel free to use one of our sentence structures or create your own.

2. Who is your target audience?
Tip: Define your target audience based on demographics, interests, and behaviors. Knowing your audience will help Tiny Oak Studio tailor the app’s features and design to suit their needs. For instance, if you’re targeting busy professionals, consider features like in-app scheduling or reminders to make their lives easier.

3. What features do you envision for your no code app?
Outline the key features you’d like to include. Think about the core functionalities your app must have to solve the problem identified earlier. For instance, if you’re developing a fitness app, features like workout tracking, nutrition plans, and progress monitoring might be essential.

For example: “We’re building glassdoor for influencers.”
