6. General Information
Time to start your advertisement. In the first of 5 small blocks to promote your company a title and slogan (tagline) is required.
Tip: Your title and slogan are the first things your customers see when they click on your listing. Best practice for a good title is your company name and your branch (e.g. Beauty Salon Xippia), whilst a slogan should be "catchy" to attract customers (e.g. Top products, lowest prices).
7. Images
Images are a crucial part to attract customers, because one picture can say more than 1000 words. Upload your logo - if you have one - in this block. For the wide screen cover image it is highly recommended to upload the best picture of your business.
Tip: Trouble to upload your pictures? Contact our service team at info@xippia-gambia.com to assist you.
8. Description
Describe your company. Who are you? What do you do exactly? And why customers should come to your company.
Tip: Try to be creative with your text and make your description not too long. A maximum of 300 to 600 words is enough.
