Grape export volume increased to 8 containers per week via tacler

Mohamed Selim joined tacler after meeting tacler founder André van der Wiel on facebook. Since then, he comes to the website 4 to 6 times per week. The reason for the frequent visits lies mainly in a 50% sales increase compared to last year. Selim: "Every day I inform other taclers of what I can sell that day, about the current situation of Egyptian products, about current availability and about what will be available soon etc…"

"For the coming grape season, I’ve increased my sales via tacler to 8 containers per week. Perhaps even up to 10 containers per week. Destinations are The Netherlands and Russia. I also receive daily information about the prices and status of markets out there and I start learning more about the serious buyers in tacler. New companies and people keep joining tacler on a daily basis, so I expect to continue to increase our sales this year. We are even thinking about appointing a second company representative in tacler at the beginning of the next season."

Having said that Selim is also active in facebook businesswise, it’s interesting to hear him talk about the strictly business atmosphere in tacler and how that is different from the predominantly private atmosphere in twitter and facebook. "In tacler I always find serious buyers who come to buy and not to play. I haven’t encountered any cheats in tacler. I can easily market my produce by just writing "WTS Grapes". And next I find people sending me email or private messages asking and discussing with me how I can ship to them. In facebook there are more cheaters, players and fakes. I never found that facebook or twitter to allowed me a growth in actual sales."
