The advent of internet has opened countless opportunities for every discerning businessman.

Creative Online Media Inc. chief executive officer Dennis Ng saw an opportunity in the services sector by providing a platform for doing business.

Ng created redpages.ph to allow small and medium enterprises to sell their products and look for suppliers through the internet.

Now, redpages.ph is the fastest growing marketplace in the Philippines providing an online marketplace.

“Purchasers need not scan the telephone directory and call each one of them for quotations. All a purchaser has to do is tap the redpages.ph for these needs at the least cost,” Ng said.

There are already 17,000 Philippine companies that have been pre-listed in the redpages.ph for a limited exposure of their company for free.

SMEs are entitled to feature up to five products. Each company can upload products, photos and company profile.

Users can view mini-webpages and listings in over 30 industry categories and nearly 350 product categories from agriculture to funerals and so much more. The company also offers 1,005 design templates to choose from to suit a particular company’s business. All companies under the premium listing are given specific website.

Once a company has decided to upgrade into the premium list, it would be subjected to a verification procedure by a third party to ensure that all the listed companies are legitimate businesses.
