Description

In recent past, we went very aggressive on monetisation. Prices were increased 15x due to the fact that we were under monetised compared to the value platform delivered. As a consequence we had trailers blocking roads around the office, dealers burning our flags and massively leaving the platform. That was true Wake up call for us. Rolling back prices was not an option!
In a year from that, we not only recovered but continued accelerating in monetisation. Today we are stronger than ever before! I will share our journey how we manage to recover, change perception, build relations and strengthen our market position at the same time.

Speaker:

Lukas Draginas
General Manager Cars (OtoMoto, OLX), OtoMoto

 

Whole professional career I am specialised in building Cars classifieds at Naspers. During decade of experience, I got rather good sense what it takes to win the market and build solid competitive advantages to maintain it. Six years I was running cars business in Lithuania where we went from zero to hero. We had to disrupt business as we knew it multiple times. Creative monetisation and innovative sales approach helped accelerating faster than competition. Last couple years I have pleasure managing cars classifieds business in Poland (OtoMoto.pl and OLX.pl). Today we have leading market position, biggest domestic traffic in Europe and have big plans expanding the market.
