A friend came to me in February telling how he was struggling in his palm kernel business. The way he spoke, I tried to think up ways to help him grow. But since I've never been a businessman (I've been a salary worker all my life), it seemed I had no idea.

Although I'm a worker, I've been researching on online business possibilities. So, I just remembered what I read in a book about advertising as a powerful means of getting businesses to succeed. I told him. We started to talk about it. At the end of the day, we discovered a couple of free advertising options.

But, this did not make much sense to me until today when I ran into the friend I told you about. He looked so good and was very grateful to me for the idea of free advertising as it helped him break through his struggles.

So, it occurred to me to share the idea here so that we can discover more together and help struggling businesses to succeed.

Here are the options I shared with him (please share any that you know):
1. - This is well established.
2. - This is also well established.
3. TYM.com.ng - There is a marketplace here. Although, this is new, its advantage is that it is not regulated like the established marketplaces. You don't need to sign up and you don't need to wait for approval.
4. If you know any other one that is still functioning, please share. You might just be helping someone.

Please, I noticed that the Nairaland bot has removed numbers 1 and 2. Number 1 is Olx(dot)com(dot)ng while number 2 is jiji(dot)ng.
