Loja.ng is a marketplace, just like your everyday market,
where you buy and sell anything you want.
The difference is you can buy and sell online without even leaving a
room. More than that, here you can also find jobs or request services from
Nigerians near you.
Basically, everything you need is on Loja. Just type it in
search.
Your success in a marketplace depends on you, how you
present your goods to the potential customer, will determine if they will buy
from you or not. The buyers are ordinary people like you, who always want the
best value for their money, anytime they want to buy something, therefore present
your items in a way that the buyer will be attracted to buy them.
Do this sometimes…, after your Ad has been approved, search
for the Ad, to see how the Ad looks and ask yourself these questions..
a:) as a buyer, will I
buy this item with the picture I used and the price tag on it?
b:) did I describe the
item very well in the description to make the buyer convinced to buy from me?
c:) Is there anything that will attract me
to buy this item?
d:) is my post and
profile attractive enough to make a buyer want to buy from me?
e:) (click on your
name on your post, to view your profile and see exactly how your profile will
look when a buyer opens it) the buyer will see your business details, including
all the items you have posted for sale, …then ask yourself…
(i) Do I have enough goods on my profile to convince buyers
to buy from me?
(ii) Does my profile look convincing enough?
(iii) If I am a
buyer, will I buy from a seller like this?
NOTE: The potential buyers are ordinary people like you, and
there are other people in the same market, selling exactly the same thing you
are selling. So present yourself and your goods in a way that it will stand out
among other items.
THE TIPS
1)
Use high quality pictures; use the best picture of the item you want to
sell as the main image, then upload other good pictures of the item as
additional images (picture is the first thing that will attract the buyer)
2)
Write a
clear Title of the item (e.g. iphone 11 pro max, will be a better title than writing
“iphone”)
3)
Write a clear description; This is where you will
explain all the details of your post to the potential buyer, remember, this is your chance to explain your
item to the buyer, all the information about the item, and everything you think
that will make the buyer want to buy it. try as
much as possible to describe the item very well in the description box,
4)
Set a good price for your item; remember there
are other people selling the same item as you are selling. Check their own price and don’t use a high price
to scare your potential customers. Yes, there is an option for negotiation, but
most buyers don’t like to negotiate, they will see your price and assume it is
your last price.
5)
Fill all the information; on the post uploading
page, including your location, most buyers like to buy from people in their
location.
6)
Make use of the optional details column to write
any other information you think the buyer will need.
7)
Fill your profile with products: take advantage
of LOJA UNLIMITED FREE POST and upload all the items you have in your shop for
sale, you don’t know what the buyer is looking for. That item you didn’t post maybe the item the
customer wants to buy.
8)
PROMOTE YOUR ADS, promotion makes your Ads to be
ahead of other Ads, if you check the LOJA.NG
homepage , you will notice that all the Ads on the homepage is promoted.
Promoted Ads get more views and attention more than other items. Promoted Ads
are also promoted on facebook and instagram as SPONSORED Ads, depending on the
promotion package you chose.
9)

social media buttons under every Loja post,
to share the posts on Facebook, WhatsApp and Twitter.

your chances of making sales.
