My Firefighter – An iPhone action packed playground!

My Firefighter – Now Available on iTunes!

Joining our line of educational apps is My Firefighter. This action packed interactive playground lets you be the firefighter and is our first work with Illustrator Robert Salanitro.

You can explore the fire engine as it heads to the fire and see if you can make the ladder go up, the wheels turn and many other hidden surprises. Touch the siren and hear it roar. Push the horn and listen as it blasts out its warning.

Then you can try to put out the house fire by positioning the Firefighter’s hose up or down and spraying water. But wait, it starts back up again keeping the action going.

Be sure to check out the bucket truck and use the controls to guide the Firefighter up towards the roof. Then position the hose to spray water on the roof fire and side windows.

As an added bonus your child can read along with the words that are displayed as each item is reveled, with settings to display in English, French, German and Spanish.

Today we uploaded our latest vocabulary building app to Apple for approval to be entered into the iTunes App store. If all goes as planned, the app should be available in about 10 to 15 days, sometime after October 25 th. We started off with a first grade edition, but plan to quickly add preschool, kindergarten, second and third grade editions.

RatCat Software is Advertising on FaceBook

Meghan's ABC123 on Facebook!Today I started a new chapter in RatCat Software’s brief story. I began advertising our apps on Facebook.

Setting it up was really simple, from my own facebook profile page, I selected “Create an Ad” found in the upper right hand corner above the ads, then I filled out a few web forms to fill out, added credit card information and off we are.

I choose a simple plan of $2 per day, and it estimated the ad might land about 4 clicks to our site and anywhere from 4K to 8K of ad impressions per day. Now the question will be… Do the clicks = buys? This is something I will monitor over the next month or two and see if I can attribute sales growth to clicks.

In addition to adding the facebook advertising, we also established a RatCat Software Facebook Fan Page to give our customers a chance to build community with our organization.
