Online classifieds leading site in Nigeria, OLX.com.ng has unveiled a premium product tagged ‘Do It For Me’ (DIFM) on Diamond
Bank’s Tech Turks, reports ITRealms.
Speaking
at the occasion, Diamond Bank’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Uzoma Dozie, said DIFM helps users manage the posting and selling of items on the website.
“Users
who have no time to post, meet with potential buyers or want their privacy
protected can entrust the sale of their goods to the OLX Champs who are sales
experts,” says Lola Masha, Country Manager, OLX Nigeria.
She
explained that DIFM service comes in two forms, namely “Post It For Me (P.I.F.M)’ where the OLX sales champs manage
the posting of items for users on the site and Sell It For Me (S.I.F.M), where the entire process is managed
from posting the item to actively finding potential buyers until the item is
sold.”
D.I.F.M,
she equally said comes with a minimal fee for OLX users and the product is only
available in Lagos but there are plans to extend in other parts of the country.
Interested users can apply for it here.
Daan
Sanders, CEO Middle East & Africa, OLX said during an interview on Tech
Turks that “D.I.F.M is another innovative way our platform makes life easier
and safer for our users”.
Also,
he said, their number one priority in Nigeria is trust, safety and with the
help of OLX Champs people who are skeptical about using the platform could be
rest assured that the OLX champs will manage the posting and sale of the item
for them.
“We
continuously reinvent the classifieds business model to fit the local market.
The DIFM model is convenient, will keep our users safe and help buyers and
sellers close deals quickly,” Sanders said.
