You might remember that in June we ran a competition on our TheSmallBusinessFairy Facebook Page.  We had lots of entrants and the winners (very deservedly it has to be said) were Tus Nua Designs.  This fantastic Irish Company was established in 2010.  They are dedicated to helping their client’s understand and maximize the potential of Apps in business.  What we love about them is that this software company will actually tell you that you don’t need an App if that’s the case.  The creators are also behind the now famous #SMEcommunity tag on Twitter which is an underground group that connects small businesses around the island of Ireland.  Each entrant for the blog competition had differing needs and Tus Nua Designs had a very focused idea for their blog post.  Debbie and Jez wanted to address a certain area on their website which was lacking, i.e. how fantastic their range of experience is, their impressive client list was missing etc.  We also decided to write the blog post as a sort of “how to navigate the Tus Nua Designs website” type post.

Here is the blog post we have written for them and I am sure you will agree that they are an amazingly talented and informative mobile app development company.

Tus Nua Quick Step ……

As we have picked up quite a few newbies to our website it has dawned on us that you probably won’t have had time to wade through all of our blog posts.  During this weeks brain storming session at Tús Nua Designs with Aisling from The Small Business fairy we decided it would be helpful to have a Quick Step blog that explained a bit about us and how we qualify for your next App venture, and, what’s on the Tús Nua Designs site.

Our Mission

To be the number one provider of business apps for mobile devices and provide blogs that can guide and educate those interested in app development or exploring the possibilities of getting an app developed.

Our experience

You may not be aware that Jez Harper (one of our founders) has worked as a Senior Developer and Technical Architect   for companies such as Airbus Cimpa Ltd, Winchester White (for FBD), V-On, Clerical Medical Financial Services, HBOS Financial Service, eXpd8, Colleagues Direct Marketing, The Real Adventure, AIT, Securicor Information Systems, University of Bristol, Principio Facilities Management, Keybase Systems, Optimised Control Ltd.

This gives him a unique wealth of knowledge and vantage point that will allow him to guide and advise your company on building an app which is suitable and beneficial to you and your team from the Technical specification to the implementation.

Debi Harper (another founder) co-founded the famous #SMEcommunity which offers support and guidance among its 2,200 followers on twitter. Debi also has a background in customer care and management in a corporate environment, so has a deep understanding of small and corporate businesses and their needs.
