The idea for Contact Button was born from a common frustration I had when I was traveling somewhere new and trying to get information about nearby businesses online.

Like many others of you, I would typically start by using a search engine or map application on my phone to find available options near me.

In far too many cases, after selecting a search result and going to a business website, I found it hard to quickly find an answer to my question or to navigate a website that was clearly designed for desktop users.

But I’m not here to tell you your business needs a mobile app. Actually, quite the opposite, as someone who has created over 20 mobile apps myself, I know how hard it is to get users to download and use your app.

Instead, I think the best option for smaller businesses is to recreate the smartphone user experience in the corner of their website using what I call a Widget App. By providing quick access to simple use case apps inside an all-in-one button, leads and customers can get the information they need as conveniently as possible.

I hope you’ll agree that Contact Button is a novel solution to a common frustration that so many of us have experienced when interacting with a business, and you’ll at least give it a free try.

I look forward to making interacting with businesses online as convenient as possible together!
