The Challenge

<p>Before they started working with Applica, ShroomID has already had paying customers who found value in the app. The main objective for ShroomID was to increase their ARPPU (average revenue per paying user).<p>

"Their UI/UX suggestions were top-notch. I'm already seeing higher quality reviews and higher revenue."
Zack Holmes
CEO at ShroomID

The Solution
