I came across a great website: GreenMango.co.in. It's an online advertising platform that helps India's small businesses and low-income entrepreneurs grow their business.

What's interesting is that the GreenMango team combs the streets within a local area and reaches out to the businesses and vendors (including those that work from home). Many of these businesses do not yet have a website or an online presence. Therefore, GreenMango's advertising platform allows them to reach potential customers through a new medium. GreenMango charges an annual listing fee (listings include a business profile, contact details, business hours, photos etc).

GreenMango also offers a number of features that benefit the "user/customer." For example, customers can find a business through the GreenMango website, and also rate or write a review about businesses they've used. As well, GreenMango's premium service will help customers locate the right business for them (whether the customer is looking for a plumber, electrician, carpenter etc).

So why is the business called GreenMango? It is named after a woman who sold..you've guessed it…green mangos. This woman worked 10 hours a day, 7 days a week, but still struggled to make ends meet. GreenMango was created to address the challenge of small businesses in finding new customers (source: Green Mango interview on Small Business Entrepreneurs).

From a domaining perspective, it's interesting that GreenMango first launched under the domain GreenMangoIndia.com, however it now redirects to GreenMango.co.in (the .in also redirects to the .co.in).

Founded in 2008, GreenMango currently has two locations: Hyderabad and Bangalore. However, it plans to expand to other Indian cities as well as other countries. I hope it does well!
