The sale is decided before anybody reaches Ikeja
A customer with a cracked screen or a dead battery is comparing three shops on their phone before they leave the house. They want a price, a yes or no on the part, and some sense of who they are dealing with. Your listing answers all three and then hands them a chat, so the comparison ends with a message to you rather than a journey to somebody else.
- A WhatsApp button that opens a chat with you
- Your own page with its own web address
- Photos of your goods, your shop or your work
Repairs are handed over on trust, so let customers see it
Giving a stranger your phone is a real decision, and no amount of describing yourself settles it. Ratings and short reviews from people you have already served do, because they come from customers rather than from you. They sit on your listing where somebody is deciding whether to make the trip.
- Customers can leave a rating and a review
- Every listing is checked before it goes live
November is when phones and laptops are compared hardest
Electronics sit at the centre of the Nigerian Black Friday season, and it now runs across most of November rather than a single day. That whole month is spent comparing prices and specifications by message before anybody spends. Repairs climb with it too, because a phone that has to survive December gets fixed in November. A shop that is findable before the month starts is inside those comparisons. A shop that is not is waiting for foot traffic during the weeks everybody else is being messaged.
What a listing costs you, in full
Nothing, at any point. There is no listing fee, no monthly charge, no commission on a sale, and no account to keep alive. You fill one short form and the page stays up. We have no payment mechanism at all, which is why there is no version of this with a price attached.
- Free to list, with nothing to pay later
- No commission on anything you sell
- No account and no password, just one short form
Found for the exact thing you sell
Somebody looking for a laptop charger in Ikeja is not searching for a directory, they are searching for the charger. Your listing sits under the category and the city you choose, so the search that matches what you actually stock is the search that reaches you.
- Listed under your category and your city
- A real page search engines can read, not a photo in a group
Be in the comparison, not outside it
One short form, no account, and customers can ask you about a part before they set off.
Questions
Do I need a website first?
No, and most shops here do not have one. The listing is the thing customers find, which is the whole point of it.
Can I list a repair service rather than a shop?
Yes. Repairs and tech support are their own category and are listed the same way.
What does it cost to appear?
Nothing. There is no fee to list and no commission on what you sell.
How quickly does my listing go up?
Not instantly. Every submission is checked before it appears, which is what keeps the directory worth searching. Listing before the November season starts is how you are up while people are comparing.
