Atlanta, GA - August 2, 2018 - BV Mobile Apps, an Atlanta-based mobile app development and hosting company, has entered into a partnership with the American Disc Jockey Association (ADJA) to be the exclusive mobile app provider for ADJA and its membership. This partnership will include the development of a custom app for ADJA as well as significant savings on apps for its members. Due to changes in the technological landscape of music distribution and marketing, both organizations see this partnership as a great opportunity to meet a need that's in demand.

"BV Mobile Apps is excited about the opportunity to partner with the American Disc Jockey Association (ADJA) in providing a great mobile app experience for its members. ADJA is committed to servicing the DJ community and their clients with dynamic methods to promote and grow; this matches the passion that BV Mobile Apps has for its own clients. We are excited about moving forward with this partnership and enjoying the mutual benefits to both organizations, said BV Mobile Apps Co-Founder Marshall Lyons."

BV Mobile Apps is known for creating unique, dynamic, creative and innovative mobile apps that help to build brand awareness, generate leads, increase your customer base and attract media traffic to your business. The apps created by them come with a simple user interface that allows users to embed media rich elements such as text, image, video, audio, animation, slideshow to
spread the word through creativity and innovation with diverse customer bases and with a consistent winning record of delivering results.

"ADJA is excited to be partnering with BV Mobile Apps to bring to her members the opportunity to have a mobile app for their companies at very low prices. This gives them yet another great value in membership as well as a new way to promote their business and communicate with their clients, said ADJA president Dr. Drax.

BV Mobile Apps is seeking an Android Developer to create features for new and existing mobile apps.  Features will include, but are not limited to, creating pages for account maintenance, designing new layouts, and integrating with other third party services.

The job will be a contract position and compensation will be based on the project.

Responsibilities:

A hammer. A saw. A pair of pliers. What do all of these things have in common? They're tools. We use these tools to fix and/or build things. Do these tools do the work by themselves? Of course not. You have to pick them up and use them to do the work. You can't simply lay the saw on a piece of wood and expect to cut it. Sorry, it doesn't work that way.

Your mobile app is no different.

Your app is a tool. It can send info and updates to your followers and fans; those same people can listen to and buy your music through it; you can communicate your next event or performance through it; they can watch your videos within it and even book you for events.

Sounds great, right? Here's the catch: you have to utilize the tool.

You must promote your mobile app so people know you have an app. Here's a few tips on how to accomplish this:

* ALL of your social media bios should tell people to download your app!

* Create social media banners that you can post frequently on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc
which tell people that you have an app and where to download it! (Use a free service like
Canva.com if design isn't your strength!)

* Use a service like Hootsuite or Buffer to regularly schedule social media posts encouraging your
followers to download your app! (Include your download link in the post - let me know if you don't
know your link and I'll email it to you!)

* Ask your followers to give your app a great rating! (this boosts your app in the app stores)

* Take advantage of the Push Notifications (which enables you to send a text message to those
who've downloaded your app) at least 2-3 times per week!

* Create a mini-commercial telling everyone you have an app and showing them how to download
it! (Use the screen recording feature on your phone along with a service like the Videoshop app)

These are great ways to utilize the tool that is your mobile app! Have any other suggestions or recommendations? Let us know!

Add a new tab in your app specifically for Events!

With this new section, you can view information about the event, add events to their Calendar, share them on Social Media, and open the address directly in Maps. You can also include a link to purchase tickets.

Through your BV account, you can manage your list and add up to 200 upcoming events to your app.

Have you ever thought about how you can engage thousands of followers, make yourself more marketable, and give your audience direct access to your content 24/7? If you have, then a mobile app would be perfect for you. It's a perfect place to consolidate all of your social media content in one place, and adds an increase sense of professionalism to your brand. And let's be honest, a DJ's brand can be crucial for business.

I'm now at the point that I don't even carry business cards anymore. Most of the times the recipient will misplace or lose the card so I do something better. I tell them to download my app! It will have all of the contact information they'll need to reach me in the future. Not only is it a "virtual" business card, but your audience will have access to all of your mixes, pictures, upcoming events, etc.

What's great about BV Mobile Apps is that they will cater your app specifically to what you need. You can have your mixes under one tab and have independent records you are servicing under another. My app is set up to where as soon as my mixes are uploaded, it immediately sends a notification to everyone who has the app. You even have control as to how often your audience will receive notifications.

Owning your personal mobile app is much cheaper than you think. BV Mobile Apps have different plans that will fit your budget and a substantial discount if you pay for the year. They service all mobile platforms (iPhones, iPads, and even android). Their customer service is phenomenal and they always respond to questions or app changes quickly. If I were you, I would give them a call and get your app started today!

BV Mobile Apps Co-Founder Gerald Olivari recently sat down with Cara Kneer of Atlanta Tech Edge to discuss the process of creating and maximizing your mobile app.
