When it comes to the Internet, I think business people should try to be as professional as possible. Heck, even if you aren't a business professional but you want to "sell" something online, you should try to make the best impression that you can. This is no different with something like a craigslist ad. I think by now we have all at least been to Craigslist. And sometimes the advertisements? They look very dull and boring. So why not spruce it up a little bit and see where something like this could get you.
I think you would be surprised to know that a more appealing ad could just get you the sales and the viewers you really are looking for! When you post an ad on craigslist thousands of people could potentially see it. However, if you have a plain old looking ad, you blend in with everyone else. And when it comes to business, this just isn't a good thing! Jazz it up a little bit! Recently I was looking for a way to jazz my ads up and I found a few really terrific sites that will actually let you make craigslist ads for FREE. Yep. I said the magic word. Free. These are nice ads with nice layouts and nice options.
Just because something is free doesn't mean it's of low quality! So I decided to check these sites out and now I want you to profit from them like I have. Let's take a look at how this process works, shall we? First you must pick a layout/design. Here are a few samples on one site I found; blue, pink, green, black, sunny day, frosty, red bubbles. Now remember this is just the backdrop to the ad, you can change the content and a few other things.
Secondly you must do your content. This includes title, email, contact details, and ad content. For the ad content this site in particular has a FULL html editor which can be really nice when you aren't very good with codes and such!
The last part of this process is the photos. You will choose one main photo (I picked a logo pic for mine) and one or more extra pictures. Apparently you can add unlimited pics and they will shrink them down to size automatically. You will also be allowed to see a free preview of your ad as well, so you can either edit it or save it. In this case, I'll choose to save it.
Now you will usually see three different options, all of which are some sort of coding available. The first option is linking code with picture, second is link code without picture and the third option is just a simple URL of the site you made the ad on which will allow you to direct people TO that link if you so choose to! Need help posting these codes to craigslist? No problem, these sites will also give you tutorials on how to do this. It's free, its covenant and it could be the profit you are looking for! Why post ads if you receive nothing in the end?
