Dear sir
Talking a self-introduction, I am a professional full time developer that is different with them.
I have been focused on Mobile Apps since 2007 and since then deveoloped Mobile Apps such as iPhone, iPad and Android for the last 5 years and I have implemented many projects, including productivity and business related applications for Mac, iPhone, iPad and Android.
My apps are ***TOP*** in the store or markets. Apple provide my apps special slot in their Featured section for more popularity.
Then my secret of success is as below:
-- I deliver FULL source code along with Proper Documentation so that you can choose someone else later.
-- Free Bug support for 12 months no matter how small the application is.
Most freelancers say bye-bye after source delivery.
I DON'T.
-- High availability across timezones as I work for 20 hours a day.
You will find us online almost all the time.
-- Effective & Professional communication through Skype, Messenger.
Most other freelancers behave just as freelancers.
They are carefree and respond at the time they feel is most convenient.
I am NOT among them. You name your communication channel and I will reach you.
I want to interview.
Best Regards.
