transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the director of a company that was set up to develop and run an app game based in virtual reality, property investment, and property trading.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with HeadChannel?
We needed a partner to develop our app.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
HeadChannel built our iOS and Android app from the ground up. Overall, it’s an interactive virtual reality property investment and trading game. The app uses the Zoopla database, and it’s a real-life gaming experience. I explained what we were after in creating the app, and how everything needed to work. From there, all of the development work was down to them.
In the app, gamers get credits and combine sold property throughout the UK. From there, they’re able to build their portfolios as a league table, and there are regular competitions for who’s building the portfolio the fastest.
What is the team composition?
I work with five members of their team, including a project manager.
How did you come to work with HeadChannel?
I Googled two companies that were close to my London Office. I chose HeadChannel because they had experience in the property management sector. I figured they would understand what I was looking to do better than most, which they did.
We began working together in February 2017, and our engagement is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The app is well received by my internal team thus far, and we’ve had no complaints. There was a complete personal buy-in on their team, and they really pushed the app forward on their own.
How did HeadChannel perform from a project management standpoint?
They performed perfectly from a project management standpoint. They’re good about closely monitoring their own work.
What did you find most impressive about them
I think they certainly had a personal touch; they don’t just treat you like another project in the office.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, I can’t think of anything that could’ve been better.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
My advice is to just go for it.
