Partners
When your clients ask for an app.
Phico designs and builds custom iOS and Android apps for brands with an audience. Design studios, agencies and consultants bring me in when a client wants an app of its own, so they can say yes without building a mobile team.
Who I partner with
Teams whose clients already have an audience.
Design and branding studios
You built the brand. The app carries it into your client's customers' pockets, designed with you or from your designs.
Web and Shopify agencies
Your client's site or store is running, and now they want an app. The app connects to what you built instead of replacing it.
Event and experiential agencies
You run the festival, tour or experience. The app keeps the audience close before, during and between editions.
Consultants and advisors
You advise clubs, membership businesses or venues. When an app is part of your recommendation, you have someone to bring in.
How it works
Two ways to work together.
Either way, I work and report directly to your client. You don't take on the project or manage a mobile team, and your relationship with the client stays yours.
Option 1
Introduce a client
You make the introduction. I shape the app with your client, agree the scope and price with them directly, and run the project from first workshop to launch. You receive a referral fee when they go ahead, agreed upfront.
Option 2
Build it together
You keep your part of the work, such as the brand, design, website, store or events. I contract the app directly with your client and work alongside your team, so the app fits everything you've already built.
Why partners bring me in
An app team you can recommend.
- Say yes when a client asks for an app, without hiring a mobile team.
- No project risk on your side. The app has its own fixed-price agreement with the client.
- Your work stays yours. I only build the app and the systems behind it.
- The client works with the founder directly, from strategy through launch and beyond.
- You stay involved and credited for the part you bring.
I already work alongside d.DOBS Creative, a UX studio for hospitality and lifestyle brands.
