The world’s leading classifieds platform, OLX, is on a mission to encourage South Africans to make and save money in order to be economically free this January. Most people have items in their homes that they do not need or use. So why not turn your “older” goods into cash?
In a new TV campaign that hit our screens 16th January 2018, OLX has partnered with Savanah’s Comic of the Year winner, Skhumba Hlope, to show how easy it is to make smart financial choices by buying and selling on OLX. Skhumba, who is seen acting the role of “People’s Side Bae”, shares his humourous tips and advice on how to set yourself economically free, varying from selling a double bed because “single beds are for single people” to avoiding “progress in reverse” by selling that vrrrpha. You can follow OLX’s new spokesperson on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for daily doses of wisdom.

“Being a part of this campaign was an easy decision for me because I’m always looking for new and exciting ways to help my community. After all, we all know that talking about money isn’t easy and we could do without the stress of stretching a paycheck to pay the bills. Being part of a campaign that deals with that and shows you an easy solution – buying and selling on OLX, I couldn’t say no,” comments Skhumba.
