Karoo Central’s novel approach to advertising as a parallel site to Karoospace.co.za has received a wonderful and unexpected endorsement – a week before its official launch.
On February 19, 2015, under the headline “Most Beautiful Stuff Ads Site in the World?” business writer Christo Volschenk wrote:
“Karoo Central boasts a few hundred listings only (and it’s unlikely there will at any stage be many more than that), but every listing has been individually crafted by the owners/operators with beautiful copy and pictures. Maybe this is where others can learn from Karoo Central.”
Volschenk described Karoo Central as “One of the most unusual horizontal classified platforms with a regional focus”.
He adds some interesting detail on the Karoo’s connectivity:
“[Karoo Central] is unusual for several reasons, but here is the main one: the Karoo is a beautiful semi-desert roughly the size of Germany with a total population of about 300,000, of which about 10 percent is Internet-connected. (Population in Germany: 82 million.)”
US-based AimGroup.Com, for whom Volschenk writes, is a global consultancy and authority on interactive media and online marketplaces.
