Craigslist Marketing
Posted 03-30-2009 at 10:08 AM by AliciaSpringer
A few weeks ago I tried running some ads on Craigslist for CPA offers. NeverBlue had a campaign that was paying for "Job Leads" for anyone interested in being an Insurance Sales Rep. The catch was that the job was only applicable in Canada. I posted in the jobs category in two cities within Canada, and received approximately 9 replies via email. I emailed them with the link to the offer, and about 4 out of the 9 converted. That offer is no longer available, but I found that interesting and would hope such an offer would become available again since that type of offer could convert well, and when scaled should be a decent earner.
Another Craigslist offer that I posted was for a zip submit offer. You were being paid $2.40 for every zip submit for a "Sell Your House Fast" offer. That offer was on NeverBlue. I had a Craigslist posting company post about 30 ads in 30 different cities as a test, and the results were decent. Since it was just a "test" to see if their ads would actually "stick" I was able to make 100% profit from those ads. In all, I believe I earned over $150 and what was interesting is that the first day of posting I made $0. Eventually the conversions started to come in, and at the end of the month those 30 ads from that one day of posting earned over $150.
Of course, you would think now that all you would have to do is duplicate this into more cities and post more often, but unfortunately that offer is no longer valid. A similar offer is available, but it requires the user to have to input more information such as their name, telephone number etc, so the conversion rate would drop substantially than if it was a zip submit.
