Ask yourself, what problem does my app solve? Making money is all about solving your customers' problems, and the best developers know that they can only profit from an idea that truly helps make their customers' lives easier (or at least a little more fun).

Apple has made it easy to make money with apps by allowing developers to sell their products in its App Store. Customers can shop the App Store in several ways, making it easy for them to find and buy your creation. They can shop from iTunes or by using their iPhone or iPod Touch.

Before you start making money with apps, however, it is important to spend time to think about your marketing plan. How will people find your app? Why would people want to buy it? What is the right price for my product? These are all critical questions to ask yourself before launching your app - and to keep asking yourself while you are selling it. There are many resources online to help you learn about marketing iPhone apps, and taking some time to learn more about it can mean bigger profits in less time.
