How You Can Leverage The Power Of Classifieds For Your Offline Business by georgen2u(m): 4:08pm On Jan 22, 2018
When it comes to making money online, all interest goes to blogging and affiliate marketing relegating the conventional offline business owners to the background,
This is because the ease of running virtual businesses. Physical business such as Cloth line, crayfish business, woodwork and other menial craft sometimes will be over looked.

But the trend is over turning, craft works and self trained petty business owners are now the real entrepreneurs, raking in more money than the self acclaimed bloggers or some civil servants

the secrets lies on how most of these small scale business owners were able to utilize the power of classified sites such as olx, jiji and others including facebook

Its not a Must to have a website before you can Start Selling across Nigeria
some small scale business owners get discouraged to go online because of the high cost of creating or maintaining a blog/ website, but the truth is , you actually do not need a website to start selling your goods and services online, all you need to know where to get exposure for your skills or products

Don't get me wrong , having a website helps you create a brand and establish your own digital space, but a look at most Nigerian websites will left you with discouragement, this is because most of the sites are just there for aesthetic purposes , some web site owners hardly even visit their own web site, Whats the need of buying a car without driving it?


Sell Better and Easily with Classifieds sites
I use to ignore the relevant of classified sites in Nigeria until recently first it was when i was looking for an accommodation in Ibadan, i spent almost 20k giving to different agent for registration and inspection but at the end i will be disappointed on the houses, however i decided to search in one of the classifieds sites, just like that, at first i was thinking it will be scam, but behold my first house was gotten through classified

Same sequence followed when i was relocating to Abuja, in order to sell my Chairs My neighbors where pricing it low but using the power classifieds i Sold my chairs online via Classifieds

One thing that discourages most new business owners is lack of clients or customers, and considering the cost of running ads online some are better left alone offline
but there is nothing like getting free attention or adverts that pays

Classifieds in Nigeria pays and it allows you post your Ads free, what do you stand to loose after all?
Why not try it for once and see what you have been missing

Three Classified Sites with user friendly and easily to post Ads Features

jiji

This is the First Most Popular Site.

olx


The second most popular sites

www.nairastreet.com.ng

One of the newest and i think have potentials for new sellers people to grab

There are many of them out there i just picked three most promising Classified portals of course Facebook is there, but why i did not include it is based on the fact that most of them can be yahoo boys business or one customs stuff which is often annoying

but facebook is cool too

Serious business owners will seize every opportunity no matter how little to gain exposure
