How to Use Craigslist

CraigslistCraigslist Advertising

the Freemium Way to Get your stuff seen and sold (Cuz’n Andy is quoted in that text)

Craigslist founded by Craig Newmark in 1995 as a free advertising email blast for all cool, hip, trendy and amazingly popular events San Francisco had to offer to the sub-culture beatnick crowd.

2012 Craigslist has mushroomed (pun intended) into what is now the biggest free-binator advertising conduit the global marketplace has seen and is now in 50 countries.

Craigslist is Da Bomb.

Newmark, because of his commitment to his vision now has the FREEDOM to do what he wants, when he wants, how he wants.  He lives his PASSION.

Makes me realize I should have probably paid closer attention to those despondent geeks in school and not been such a drama queen.  Cher’s song, “If I could turn back time” rolls through my brain as I write this.

craigslistAs events in our culture turned trendy, pop culture and ever so dynamic, Craigslist and Newmark were right there to be a global influential revolution for free advertising of everything and anything for sale including stuff that really shouldn’t be sale-able.

I haven’t checked Craigslist as of late, but I did see an emu and a camel for sale, or trade.

I could definitely get into riding a camel around to do my every day b.s. saves gas.  Instead of pushing on a horn, the camel spits at your nemesis.  Now there’s a way to win friends and influence people.  LOL.  At least no one would run over me.

Albeit, the whole camel poop thing would really be a hassle for me because California is an anti-sh*t state, so, I forego my camel as transportation dream.  Back to matters at hand….Craigslist Advertising

Craigslist The Free-Mium For Sale SiteCraigslist

 What do you want out of the deal?

When I first started using Craigslist as a marketer I can say I made an arse out of my efforts.

Today, I seem to have a better handle at this Craigslist stuff and how it works.  My Craigslist prowess becomes especially fortuitous when I’m listening to rap music (it stirs the creative juices)…go figure.

I can write some killer ad copy and I can get those really cool html pictures working pretty well when I use the Adtracker Tool too.  You probably want the same thing, that’s why you’re reading this post.

You want to be able to advertise on Craigslist with ease and without getting your account shut down.  The biggest nemesis of all, “Big Brother” telling you “You’ve had way too much fun advertising your links here…time to move on little Indian,” is not what you want to hear or have happen to you.

I’ve composed a Craigslist Adtracker *.pdf for you to  download and a video to watch at your leisure.  You can find that HERE.

The landscape changes pretty rapidly in this business and the rules are always being updated to behoove the rule makers.  Keep this in mind as you traverse through the video and the *.pdf.  there are some nuggets of information in both the video and the *.pdf downloadable file that you’ll be able to use to increase your advertising on Craigslist.

I believe, if I hypothesize correctly, you want to be successful on Craigslist while advertising your primary company, your affiliate deal, your links, or whatever you got that someone wants.

You also want to avoid the pain of getting shut down on Craigslist and you want to create a better experience for yourself and quite possibly those you teach to use Craigslist Advertising.

Craigslist Advertising and your emotionscraigslist

With over 30 billion page views per month and over 50 million monthly visitors to Craigslist just in the United States, well the emotional level for a marketer is high when they start to think about all of those eyeballs.  The potential sales are mind boggling if the ad is targeted correctly.  Dont’ start drooling just yet.

The magic bullet…is your ad targeted correctly?

Advertising raises our emotional levels, as marketers, because it the ‘potential’ prospect who will click on to our ad and buy from us that creates this incredible excitement in our systems.

You’ve looked into solo ads and have found them to be really expensive and it’s a crap-shot depending on your ‘free offer’ that you may or may not have in place.  It’s also dependent on that really slick sales funnel you’re going to send them through with all the bells and whistles in place.  The ‘invisible funnel’ is the trend now.

   ….do you talk to your prospects?

With a solo you depend on others to write exceptional copy for your offer.  You want your prospects to be sent to a page that converts because God forbid you want to TALK to these people.

For some reason, the landscape has decided that marketing is clicking a link, going down a funnel and buying your sh*t.  There’s virtually no thought given to the customer experience.

Any ‘uber’ successful marketing professional will tell you This is a relationship business.

So you’ve now eliminated 99.99% of the population from talking to you personally and you’re down to 1/10th of 1%; the rest of ‘em can “leave a message at the tone.” LOL

God Forbid you actually have to have a conversation with anyone.  Well you can at least b.s. your way through it and come out unscathed and no worse for the wear.  Quite possibly,

you may have a heart attack because you have to talk to a stranger, so make sure you have someone in the next room to hear you fall on your face so they can call 911.

Otherwise, I think you’ll be fine watching this video and downloading this *.pdf to help you achieve your free advertising with Craigslist where you may never have to talk to anyone ever again! :)

The Making of an Entrepreneur: 5 Ways to Build Value And What Actions To Take

Successful EntrepreneursSuccess is as Success Does:

The Rinse and Repeat Process

Today I was reading an email, not something I should be doing right now because I have so many other things I need to accomplish.  But, this particular email stood out and I wanted to share some of the most valid points this multi-millionaire network marketing professional decided to share with me.

This is one of those times when that nugget of information jumped out at me and I am going to use these powerful tools  to help my business achieve maximum results.  Today was one of those days when I read something I genuinely feel I should share with you.

making of an entrepreneurCaveat Emptor

Let the buyer beware.  As an entrepreneur I find there are things that resonate with me and then there are other things that really don’t.

As I’ve been told and hit over the head with many a time is to find a system I can use that shows me a valid and viable rinse and repeat process from those who’ve left clues.

Those who’ve been in the business and have proven their reliability as a network marketing professionals.  Those who’ve made millions by adding value.  There is a system out there for this, in fact, there are multiple systems.  The one that I have found that works for me may or may not work for you.  You’ll have to figure that out on your own.

Now, on to the reason I wrote this post in the first place….

What makes Them so Different?

What confounds me is how do they do it.  These millionaire network marketing professionals.  The fact these people are just like me, but their success is phenomenal is what baffles me and I have to ask myself,

So what makes them any different from you and me?

  • Is it mindset?
  • Is it unlimited pockets?
  • Is it who they know?
  • Is it what they know?
  • What is it that makes these people different?

Successful EntrepreneursDemigods of Network Marketing

These ultra-uber-super fantastic entrepreneurs who’ve created millions in their businesses by recruiting thousands in their downlines are seriously just like you and me.

They’re not demi-gods with halos around their heads, they’re just plain ‘ol folk, I know because I’ve met them.  I’ve had conversations with them, I’ve learned from them and I keep creating my business to be better because I want to achieve that level of success just LIKE them.

Now, maybe that sounds a bit kavitchy to you and you’re wondering why it’s so important to me to create that much success – let’s just put it this way; we all have our own reasons.  You have yours, I have mine.  The point is that success is as success does and this isn’t about me anyway, it’s about building your successful business.

So I’ve looked at a few things these people do that I can rinse and repeat myself.  One of them is to stop checking email! :0 I can tell you that’s a real waste of my time and yours too.  If we’re building our businesses we’re not getting there by creating more busy work for ourselves.  Leave the data entry and answering of emails for the outsourcing you’ll be doing sooner rather than later.  **I realize this statement flies in the face of what I just said. I have no excuse.  I’m writing this post because of an email I received and wanted to share with you, what can I say?!

I received these words from a very powerful network marketing professional in this industry whom I have met personally and have a great amount of respect for and who built his business from the ground up with nothing more than a cell phone and a lot of guts to dream the biggest dreams he could come up with – his is a story of inspiration.  He’s Jay Kubassek and he’s probably one of the most influential network marketing professionals this industry has ever seen.  Here’s what Jay has to say.

5 characteristics

1. Build relationships.

This is a skill set that good entrepreneurs and salespeople have that involves cultivating trust within others for you – and through that, trust in what you’re offering. And there are two types of relationships: physical and virtual.

Physical relationships are the most important, as they are the ones you interact with in real life. And you’ll never know when they will pay off, but you don’t look to make that connection just for the end result. Do it because of what the entrepreneur’s overall mission should be: helping people solve their problems and providing value to them. If you have an agenda outside of that, the relationship won’t have the same value to you down the line.

Relationships pay off in spades in ways you cannot possibly predict. These are the value of industry events where you can meet like-minded people who may one day benefit you in ways you won’t know now.

Virtual relationships (fans on FB/Twitter, email lists, etc.) are important too. There must be a strategy or reason these relationships exist. Think of them as little seeds you are planting, like redwoods in California. You can’t dig up seeds too quickly and try to harvest the fruit too early; they’ll yield that harvest when they are ready. Give nature its time to grow the relationship. Be proactive, be patient, and think long term.

2. Provide inspirational leadership.

Focused and deliberate mental energy is difficult to generate. We only have a finite amount of brainpower per day where you can be absolutely sharp and on your game. It’s what you do with that time that will make the day count. Being a student of leadership and committing to inspiring other people takes work and mental energy, but the payback is much more rewarding. It’s the best investment you can make in yourself. People want to be lead. Lead them, and they’ll appreciate (and reward) you for it.

3. Create content.

You can create or share content with others. People with similar interests will flock to you when you provide content that they are interested in. You can also write opinions on what you read and share. Every time people experience that value, they’re going to feel an attraction to you and what you offer.

4. Be a pattern interruption to people.

Be bold and help them step outside their comfort zone. Have those “1% conversations” with people, which are about taking the gloves off and holding people responsible for their own growth. It’s not about preaching to people; it’s about holding them accountable to themselves and what they’re capable of. They will love (and reward) you for it.

5. Whatever you are selling or promoting, make sure it does two of these three things: meet a need, solve a problem, or make life easier.

Makes sense, right? Those are the WHAT that provides value. Now, we go into the HOW you can do it here and now. Here are 10 concrete actions you can take that will help you maximize the value you’ll be able to provide (and through that, the rewards you’ll set yourself up for long term) as an entrepreneur:

Always look to grow and improve yourself. It’s a lifelong process.

Be around birds of the same feather. You’ll be amazed what you learn, and what you’ll teach.

Hang around the right people with similar goals and you’ll feel a greater drive to accomplish yours. Iron sharpens iron.

Be willing to consider new things you haven’t done before. There’s always something different you can do better that will yield better results.

There’s a lot of things we assume and project onto the world. These wrap us and constrict our possibilities. Don’t let you hold you back!

You already know what it means to lead – it means showing up the way you’re capable of showing up. It means being the example you know you can be.

Develop those sales and marketing skills. Experience different places and cultures to have perspective on what needs there are out there. You’ll have a better grasp of how to help with them.

8. Read.

There’s infinite content out there just waiting for your mind to absorb.

If you don’t like reading, get books on CD or video. Everyone is capable of absorbing info in some way.

10. Make sure you have 10 minutes a day where you have complete quiet time when your mind stays still.

Find a quiet place and exist in only your own space. Doing this, you’ll allow your subconscious mind to take over and have those “a-ha” moments. When you stretch your mind about something, it continues to work subconsciously behind the scenes even after the conscious thought has passed. And the next morning or week or whenever, you may find yourself hit by a moment of clarity inspired by that. (I find that late night is a great time to do this, because it primes your brain to fire up that subconscious part of it and work through the night.)

  • ***Have you wanted to put your own picture on Craigslist using HTML but don’t know how to do it?

Well, here’s a simple video and *.pdf download that will show you how.

I’ve heard a great many stories of success for those who have advertised on Craigslist; whether it’s your old stuff you don’t want, or your opportunity.  You will have success if you advertise and track your ads on Craigslist.

Don’t listen to the advertisers who say that Craigslist doesn’t work.  Because it’s obvious they don’t know what they’re talking about.  Craigslist is an ideal way for those people who are looking to expand their business to do so without the obligatory ‘slaps’ of the big and mighty bullies.

Using Craigslist Adtracker

I’ve known many people who have advertised successfully on CraigsList using the Adtracker and have created a small fortune in their network marketing, MLM and Direct Sales companies.  Thus the reason I wrote this post.

  • Because I find this a very compelling way to utilize the possible* free classified advertising we all have available to us.
  • And, because I have seen this advertising work.
  • Hands down, this is a great way to advertise on Craigslist without getting banned or otherwise shut down if you practice responsible advertising without spamming the heck out of your potential team members.
