Only yesterday, I was thinking of a survival strategy for OLX in the face of endless market domination by Jiji. While this partnership is a welcomed one, I think OLX should think of more user driven initiatives without almost no cost and also send a lot on ads. Their first entry into the market should be capitalised. All the best! |
