Who can build your iPhone app?

Executive Coach to Entrepreneurs, Startup Happiness
Prior to becoming a coach, I'd been a CEO, a software engineer, a marketer, a rocket scientist, book publisher, editor and author, a personal trainer. Yeah, I was also the guy at the front of the iPhone line; all four times. iPad, too.
