Chad Mureta is the founder of Empire Apps and co-founder of T3 Apps and Best Apps, three mobile application businesses that he created without a background in technology.
Over the past decade, Chad Mureta’s
professional and personal lives have impacted each other in profound
and unexpected ways. In 2009, a devastating car accident confined him
to a hospital bed, where Mureta discovered the possibilities of the
emerging app market while experimenting with his iPhone. During that
time, Chad realized that his real estate business was not only
consuming his life, it was also in no way connected to what he was
passionate about.
Without any tech experience, he
developed an idea for a mobile application called “Fingerprint
Security Pro,” that would go on to be a best-seller in the App
Store and serve as the catalyst for a new company, career, and way of
life. Chad realized that through mobile apps, he could create a
system that worked while he didn’t. Now almost three years later,
he has spearheaded the development and marketing of 46 apps, which
have been downloaded over 35 million times worldwide.
While Chad loves the exciting nature of
the app business, it’s his true passion for living a life free from
the 9-to-5 grind that propels him as an appreneur. By letting
technology work for him, Chad has been living his bucket list:
traveling the world, learning salsa, becoming a certified scuba diver
and skydiver, and his list continues to grow every year. Chad uses
the app business as a means to work less and truly “have a life.”
As an author, speaker, consultant, and
entrepreneur, Mureta’s unique insight, experience, and tenacity
have enabled him to make his businesses thrive, all while living the
life of his dreams and traveling the world. Mureta shares his
experiences and expertise in his first book, App Empire: Make Money,
Have a Life, and Let Technology Work for You (March 2012, Wiley
Publishing).
