Where are vehicles advertised for sale at the moment? Newspapers, noticeboards, dealership
websites. Leaving dealerships aside for
the moment consider the individual buyer or seller. Their options are either place an ad in a newspaper,
which is expensive, or place an ad on a noticeboard, which is cheaper but gets
a lot less coverage. Both methods involve
a degree of hassle and expense.
To place a noticeboard ad the poor seller must devise an ad,
print it out, get in their car, battle across town, pay for the ad to be
displayed, and pray that the right buyer happens upon their ad in the midst of
the confusion, then battle back across town.
Even dealers without a website will have to get off their
backside to go and post ‘hard copy' ads around the place.
The alternative? Go
to www.kenyacar.com , register, login,
and post as many ads as you like. There
is even a ‘Getting Started' guide to download. And get this...it won't cost you a
thing!
There are a couple of car sales websites available to
Kenyans but only www.kenyacar.com offers users the chance to take control of
their own ads. Kenya Car allows users to
publish/unpublish ads, respond to enquires or leave comments and
questions. The ads are organized and
searchable by price, model etc, meaning buyers can more easily track down the
vehicle that suits them.
The ads can be viewed all across the country!
Did I mention that there is NO CHARGE for this?
By the time a hopeful seller has composed a noticeboard ad,
printed it, and driven about shelling out cash, half a day has passed in
boredom and frustration. Buyers too have
to drive from noticeboard to noticeboard working through the chaos, making
notes as they go.
To post an ad on Kenya Car one does not have to leave the
house or office. It takes a few minutes
to register, login and upload car details.
Buyers from across the country can easily find suitable vehicles so your
(free) ad is not competing with irrelevant types of vehicles that are half
overlapping your ad.
Car sales via noticeboards will become a thing of the past.
