Africa's Foremost Company and Personal Profile Database on the Web

Jan. 29, 2011 - PRLog -- With more businesses springing up in their thousands, sale of products and services have indeed become more competitive. Business owners and advertisers, more than before, continue to churn out strategies and tactics to get their offerings into the minds and eventually the pockets of existing and potential customers.

The big companies allocate huge annual budget for their marketing campaigns, while small businesses tend to struggle to make their offerings known in the market. This trend, however, has forced thousands of small businesses to close shop, while others have gone the way of cheap or free publicity and promotion in order to keep cost at an all-time low. You find advertisements of small businesses in online forums, blogs, pay-per-click, classified ads, banner exchange, social networking websites, online directories, and even small business meetings.

With the introduction of ScoopAfrica.comin December last year, small businesses across Africa can now enjoy great free marketing exposure they have long waited for.
ScoopAfrica.comis the latest website design product developed and owned by two Nigeria university undergraduates, Tunde Aniyi and Ayokunle Bankole. The website brings great free marketing exposure to new and emerging businesses, professionals and prospective employees in Africa.
ScoopAfrica is reputed to be Africa's foremost company and personal profile database on the web; and famous for helping African companies and professionals to create, organize and market their profiles. The website has been designed to share unique information about Company and Personal Profiles. Recently, an innovative academic and career counseling service was added. The website is currently undergoing some positive development to accommodate Business & Economy News, Latest Job Vacancies, Classifieds, Blogs and Articles.

Last week, the co-founders rolled out two new promotional offers to micro-, small- and mid-sized businesses and professionals across the continent of Africa. The two new promotional offers known as the "All-Inclusive Website Design Deal" and the "One-for-One Banner Ad Campaign" is coming on the heels of their website's on-going free Gold Profile Listing promotion launched in December 2010.

The All-Inclusive Website Design Deal gives organizations and individuals over N40,000 worth of free banner advertisement on ScoopAfrica.comif their website design project is developed by Scoop Internet Services. The amount of free advertising the client gets equals the cost of designing the client's website. Now small business owners may not need to worry anymore about promoting their new website, because the 'all-inclusive' website design deal has taken care of that at no extra cost to them.

On the other hand, the One-for-One Banner Ad Campaign gives advertisers 100% free banner advertising (worth the cost of previous subscription) for every banner advertising plan the advertiser subscribes to on ScoopAfrica.com.

The two young entrepreneurs are determined to make a bold statement on the Nigerian business landscape. While Tunde Aniyi is a Physics student at the University of Lagos, Ayokunle Bankole is a student at the Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye; and currently studies Mass Communication.

With a debut in December 2010, ScoopAfrica's growth has been forecasted to be high in subsequent years.
