Welcome to the Mobile app flipping broadcast. This is your host Yohann Taieb. My goal is to help you get the most out of reskinning apps. Whether you are already a full time entrepreneur or trying to get a business going, this broadcast is for you. We will be interviewing professionals that are already doing app reskinning for a living. We will also invite source code sellers to get to learn both what they have to offer and finally we will talk to industry experts to learn how to become more productive at flipping apps and now without further ado let's get started.

Today I have an amazing amazing guest. His name is Kerr Almario. Hi Kerr how are you?

I am good. How are you?

I am doing amazing, thanks.
So today I invited you to the podcast because you are one of my students that took actually many of my courses and you know right now you actually are kind of successful. And the way you got to where you are is actually not that amazing. Let's say you know it's not like a one-time shot. It's hard work that pays off. So I don't want to go too much into details. But can you tell us a little bit about yourself, your background and who you are?

Ya. My name is Kerr and I am from the Philippines. So I studied bachelors in Computer Science there. And after finishing my college we went to Canada. Right now I am in Canada.

Ok and so your background is in Computer Science.

Yeah.

Now before taking any classes have you tried making any games of your own or apps of your own?

Actually this is my first time. I saw your courses and I told myself that I will give it a try.

So how many apps or games have you done so far?

I think I have 7 clones.

7 clones... So by clones you mean reskin right?

Yeah reskin.

So you never created an app on your own from scratch, right?

Yeah not yet. I am still studying for that.

Do you know how many downloads you have got for your app?

I actually have 4000 downloads right now on just the mad thinker.

Oh ok and let's talk about mad thinker since you are mentioning it. That's one of the reason why I invited you to the podcast. You have been working hard and lately you have got some success with the mad thinker. Which basically you took this class, I think can you remind me the name of the class. It's my class but I dont remember it myself.

Freaking math.

Freaking math. That's right, how to reskin the freaking math game or app. It's not really a game. It is a game but it is an educational app, right?

Right. It's educational.

So technically the app is all about trying to find the sum of two numbers in less than a second or two,right? It's like time based.

Yeah.

And the menu is very similar to flappy bird clone. So people are familiar with the look and feel of the app. So you reached the top 25 in the Philippines, right? In your home country?

Yeah it's in educational games in educational.

Yeah congratulations.

Thanks.
Actually in Brene I was like no. 6 in games educational right now.

Ok so you actually reached higher number in other country.

Yeah.

Very nice. Now something that's very interesting is that you reached a high rank in your mother country and one of the previous students that I invited, Sergio reached the first spot for ipads in the country he has been living in for more than 10 or 15 years. So something is very interesting here. It seems that when you really know your market, that's where you can hit higher ranks. That's how it sounds to me. I see a recurring pattern here. So tell me why. What did you do that made your app so high ranked in your home country for example and not in states or let's say not in France. What did you do so special?

Yeah,
