According to Awuraama Brefo, she has been a regular user of Tonaton.com since June 2013. “Tonaton.com has been the most effective online classifieds platform I have ever used in Ghana. Prior to posting my ads on Tonaton.com it was hard to find any cost effective strategies that will increase my sales since I did not have enough money for adverts on radio and television,” she said.

“The number of buyers who call to express interest in my bags and other accessories via Tonaton.com has been amazing,” she added. Winners were presented with their prizes by the Marketing Manager, Kwabena Opoku-Boakye.
