CAPE TOWN - We all know the Yellow pages as the big telephone directory book. However, the producer and owner of the Yellow Pages Trudon in Johannesburg has now reintroduced it as an app.
How it works:
1. The Yellow Pages app will allow businesses to list themselves so that consumers can find them.
2. The app will also how average quotation offered by the business.
3. Users can also chat with a service provider via the app.
4. Users will also be able to see how far or near a business is from their location.
Trudon hopes to have 100 000 small and medium business available soon and hopes that the app will help SMMEs reach a wider audience.
