Please Advise Between These Two Platforms. by Lastlook: 10:49am On Jul 01, 2022
Hello,
I am currently working on some projects, slow but progressing.

Please advise between this two platforms;

1. A social media platform where people share different kind of info, have fun, etc... An example is Twitter but with the ability to earn coins (money) from your activities.

2. A social media platform for people who sell different type of things, an example is Jumia (Jumia is like a product listing) but this will be like a complete social media website like Facebook but it major focus is on buying and selling things like Jumia. Users post, sell, share, create page for their products, write more info for it, take payment, etc.


Which of this have a great future ahead and Which one will you go for?

Please a sincere comment is needed.
Thanks.

Either of the two, you'll still need a great marketing strategy, I'm sure those two areas have their own audience, you can built both and spend some amount on ads campaign whichever has the best reach could be settled with.
If I had to choose I'll go with the first, but I need to be convinced enough that I'll earn, too many platforms deceiving people nowadays and people see them as too good to be true

First, everything you want to do should be towards solving real human problems. A platform developed for solving real problems will thrive in the end. So look at the two platforms and ask yourself, which one will solve more problems and give people satisfaction. For me, that will be the second one, but then again, it is really up to you, and also understand that for anything to succeed, you also need to really put in a good marketing strategy.

Thanks for your contribution. I was thinking on creating the two and monitor the out come for about 6 months and then ditch any of the project that doesn't meet up with the expectation.

But diversifying of funds is another problem. Spending on a single project would have make a great impact on a single project instead of two.

You are right, solving real human problems thrive on a long run. It might start slow but definitely will make a kill later. Thanks for your input. Good marketing strategy is the core to a successful business.

I just want something that will definitely make an impact to people's live. Something that benefits people.

Then go with the later, I would have advice you go with the first if the reward is real, reason I insinuate on this fact, take opay as an example. The cashback packages attracts the younger people that's why you'll see most youth chose that platform for their online wallet, reason been that they get tips inform of rewards on every transaction they make. So if you go with the first option it's possible you get fast result.

But I'll advice you choose the later cause it's more about the long term and it'll attract more interests from most business owners.

The reward is real in different ways but limited and with a threshold to users with activities. Earned points can be use on the platform or withdraw as a real money.

- Referral
- Activities
- Competition
- Followers
- Events
- etc...

The later is a business oriented. I can put the both online, diversifying the advertisement fund and see what i can achieve in 6 month.

Then i can put in more effort on which of the project that pays.

I just checked out the platform, it's awesome.

I have everything ready, the script, plan, marketing, etc... I just need to clear my head.

I hope Nigerians will love it. Because most of the seller's are so use to Jumia, WhatsApp, Facebook etc... I need to be think out of box on how to get returning users.

Yes, I'm with more than 11 years experience.

I bought an existing script, modifying it to suit my needs. But it's going to be a great experience.

Ahh, it's just an adage for success. When thing's go south (Successful) and when thing's go north ( tongue tongue tongue)

My plan is to open an office when thing's go south and if it's north, I will keep a low profile by working alone.

Send me a mail request.
