HI

Quick word of advance

Your ad is too long; make it much shorter than when people show interest you can fill in the details when you communicate with the individuals.

...Just a suggestion that's all

My personally I like Jumia very much but I would rather join the affiliate program, the potential to make much more money is there as an independent marketing contractor
