Clients often decide in a few seconds, on their phone, by looking at your photo, your title and your first lines. A clear, honest listing brings more messages than a long one. Here are five simple ways to make yours stand out on Kinify Services.
1. Use a clear title that says what you do and where
A good title answers two questions at once: which service, and which area. Compare a vague title such as Best services with a clear one such as Plumber in Ngaliema and Kintambo, leak repairs and water tanks. Clients searching for a plumber near them will notice the second one first.
2. Show real photos of your work
Photos are the strongest proof you can give. Add at least three pictures of jobs you have finished, taken in good light: before and after, close-ups of clean finishing, your tools in order. Avoid pictures copied from the internet. Clients notice, and it breaks trust.
3. Explain what is included and give a price idea
Clients hesitate when they have no idea of the cost. You do not need a fixed price for every job, but a starting price or a range helps them contact you. Say what the price includes, such as travel, labour or materials, and what can make it change.
4. List the communes you cover and your working hours
A client in Limete wants to know if you will come to Limete. Add every commune you really cover, your working days and whether you take urgent calls. Being precise saves you calls from clients you cannot serve.
5. Reply quickly and get verified
The first professional to reply often gets the job. Turn on notifications and answer messages the same day, even just to say when you can call back. Then send your documents to get the Verified badge: it shows clients that we have checked your identity.
