Friend’s recommendations are likely the largest influence of who we do business with if we have no preference.

How do you get the word out?

As eloquently put by an Electrician in Uyo last week, “I get by with a little help from my friends.” This statement could not be more on point for new businesses trying to expand their reach, generate more leads and claim their piece of the pie in their industry.

One of the best places to start growing your business is with the people you already know — your family and friends. Yes , Your Friends on Facebook too. How many times have you tried something new simply because a friend or family member told you about it?

Whether it’s a new tailor, a plumber , or carpenter, you are instantly willing to give the business a chance and lend it credibility if someone you know recommended it.

Now with the new Facebook Recommendation in NamMi, More and more of your friends can recommend your service to their friends too.

Long Term Value with NamMi

NamMi is not another on-demand App that connect tasks to Artisans in Nigeria. No NamMi is far from it.

We help Local artisans compete and succeed on-line . We rely on local crowd source experiences, Social graph and deep learning to answer the question “ Who should do this for me?” better than objective and subjective Listing.

The new Facebook Recommendation feature is a very tiny part of the business social graph , we are building for NamMi.

Subsequent releases of NamMi will bring more of the social graph like following,enables merchants to create account , promote and sell their own local social offers and reach customers directly with automated video ads on their Facebook ,Instagram and Messenger.

And even more…

NamMi uses Geo-location and Local Awareness to allow artisan to advertise 800m around their location to nearby people.

We also provide data and insights to help artisans discover influencers on Instagram and facebook.

Artisan’s Customers can buy Offers on mobile and Messenger. Redeem Offers in artisan workshop directly
