Our customers are owners of retail outlets/ small shops:
They have embraced the modern way of doing things, have a smartphone, they are between 20-55 years old and they want to run an efficient business.
They are self employed. Either trained by parents/guardians or training themselves
25% are employed formally and work evenings and weekends at their shop to supplement income
They want to be respected in their hustle, are on social media and over the weekends they like to hang out with friends for a good time even virtually or shopping online.
They are motivated by the need to be self employed, earn money, be seen as modern entrepreneurs who are trendy.
Their pain points are that access to products is hard, they lack enough finances to stock the items and they find the right partners who are a one stop shop.
We primarily acquire these customers through two ways; social media (facebook, instagram) and then using sales agents/our drivers. Once they are in, we give them a good service level to ensure that they promote us through word of mouth. We keep them through offers and in app messaging
