Using Craigslist for leads.
For fun I head over to the Services - Computer category to see all the latest web designers out there. There's certainly a lot to choose from. I then leave that area and continue checking things out.
I then notice another category in the Services area called Skilled Trade.
So out of curiosity I start looking through it and there were at least 150 ads for plumbers, carpenters, roofers, electricians, handymen, and so on. And these posts were for just a single day.
Now I'm thinking, here's a bunch of "skilled trade" businesses that are advertising. Yeah, it's on craigslist which is free, but it does tell me that these guys have at least some computer skills and understand the importance of marketing on the internet.
So here's my idea. I want to put an ad in that "skilled labor" section with a headline that says something like.....
"Free Mobile Website For Your Business"
Then put a short description and a link to my "mobile website" website. I'm hoping to get myself in front of those 150+ businesses and generate some good leads out of them. My ad is basically targeting the businesses who place ads on craigslist....not for the consumers looking for handymen and such.
But I'm wondering if I would get banned or anything worse for posting a Website Service ad in the skilled trade section instead of the computer section? Has anyone here used Craigslist this way?
Thanks.
Mike
