Something that is searched for quite often on this website are ways to boost iPhone and iPad app sales. Marketing iOS apps has become an extensive business, and can cost quite a bit of money. So whenever I see something that can boost app sales without any cost I think it’s worth mentioning.
With school starting in the US and Canada I thought it was a good time to mention a program that Apple has recently added for iOS developers. This program allows developers with apps in the Education category of the app store to offer a discount on their apps when purchased in bulk (20 or more sales) using a special voucher system. All you have to do as a dev is tick off a selection noting that you are willing to give the discount.
So if you’ve got one of the many math, language, science or other educational apps and games this could be a great way to boost your sales, and it won’t cost you a dime up front. Might also be a good idea to try to market to schools that could be interested in your app as they would be the ones making the purchases.
