谷歌眼鏡、波音夢想客機、4G網絡……看看將在未來幾十年里改變人們生活方式的各種芯片、設備和軟件。它們都有一個共同點:來自財富美國500強公司。
星巴克(Starbucks) ????2011年,這家業內領先的美國咖啡零售商發布了iPhone版星巴克應用,為輕松便捷的店內應用購買樹立了榜樣。用戶可以在這款應用內訂購飲料,支付就像掃描數字條形碼那么簡單。這可能就是星巴克在該應用上市第一年期間就實現1.1億美元移動應用收入的原因。該應用使人們得以一窺未來幾十年的購買方式。 |
Starbucks ????When the leading U.S. coffee retailer launched its Starbucks for iPhone app in 2011, it set an example for how easy in-store app purchases can be. Users can order their drinks within the app, and paying is as simple as scanning a digital barcode. That's probably why Starbucks reported $110 million in mobile app revenues during the app's first year on the market. Indeed, the app serves as a glimpse of how purchases will look in the decades to come. |
