1. The Challenge of Expanding Beyond Local Sales
For years, Chinedu Okonkwo had been crafting handmade leather shoes from his workshop in Aba. His shoes were known for their quality and durability, but his biggest struggle was scaling his business beyond local customers.
❌ Limited reach – He mostly sold to people in his city.
❌ High marketing costs – Traditional advertising was too expensive.
❌ No reliable online platform – Social media wasn’t generating enough sales.
"I knew my shoes could compete with international brands, but I had no way to reach more buyers," Chinedu shared.
2. How Axis Transformed His Business
Everything changed when Chinedu listed his products on Axis’s marketplace for local businesses.
✅ Instant exposure – His shoes were now visible to thousands of potential buyers.
✅ Seamless transactions – Customers could order directly through the platform.
✅ Marketing support – Axis helped him run promotions and giveaways to attract more sales.
✅ Customer reviews – Positive feedback built trust and encouraged new buyers.
"In my first month on Axis, I sold more shoes than I did in an entire quarter before!"
