I get to be asked this question every now and then, "are you building another classified ad like jiji or olx?"

My answer has always been a big NO.

Here is the difference..

You moved into a new house, for instance, and you need a painter. You've got two options:

You can go to any of the numerous classified ads like vconnect, jiji, olx, etc and see hundreds of painters listed on their platform with their complete contact details.

Now these classified ads platform would warn you that any transaction you have with any contractor or seller on their platform is at your own risk. And yes they are right! Anybody can create a profile on olx and call himself a painter!

You heard the Nanny story early this year right?

Their revenue model is mostly from adverts from google and premium placements. They are not interested in verifying anybody.

Now alternatively- and the best option is to hire a Pukena ProPainter.

This why:

We insure all our handymen to the tune of N1,000,000. So we are responsible for damages and bodily injuries in the course of project execution.

Pukena collects your project details and matches you with the best painter in our network who must have passed through our rigorous vetting process and inhouse professional training.

You only pay if you are satisfied with the job. We do all we can to make you happy before you pay. Your project comes first! In most cases, we hold your money escrow for 48 hours pending if there would be complaints. Then we either release it to the Pukena Pro that served you or refund you, if need be.

You don't get that from a classified ad.

In Pukena, we take total responsibility to the entire transaction process. From when you post an order, to our job assessment visit, before we match you with a reliable PukenaPro who works under strict supervision of a Pukena Relationship Manager on site to ensure quality control. Payment is seamless with you card, online transfer or cash.

We designed Pukena with you in mind! www.pukena.ng

How much money do you need to insure so many people for one million dollars ? I feel you do not finish something! And with Jiji everything is much easier. Nobody makes you pay money ahead of time, and if you paid, then it's your responsibility
