Hi guys!
I ran across this while on YouTube and thought this was a really cool and low cost way $24.95 to start a service placing image ads for businesses locally & world wide...www.CustomCraigslist.com

What are your thoughts on this?

    Areevez has got a thread on here about how he uses CL to promote apartment blocks - this could go well with that.

    The thread is called something like "10 leads a month = $5,000"

      Checked it out. Looks like a nice product. It looks like a good deal for the price. The site is well produced with great examples which gives me a good idea the product will be the same.

      It also works for eBay ads. I can see how I could use it for local ads and for Google Places.

      I did notice that he did not give a guarantee - but you could always contact him first and ask about that.

      Let us know how you come out.

        I got a guy that does mine on Fiverr for...you guessed it....$5.00

        I just give him the URL and tell him what the site is about with a tag line and he does a fantastic job. Well worth the cost.

            What am I missing about the Craigslist Ads site? He is charging $25 to create an image to post on CL??? Damn, I am in the wrong biz.

            If you guys are doing offline work, how are you not slightly proficient at Photoshop???

              No, he is charging $24.95 to teach...
              • Video instruction on how to make stunning Craigslist ads without templates
              • Easily add images, logos, or headers
              • How to enhance, modify, and alter images
              • Automatic HTML code generator for posting in Craigslist
              • Click-able ads that link to your website
              • No waiting, wondering, guessing or searching
              • Create as many Craigslist image ads as you want
              • Alter and re-design existing ads whenever you want
              • Economical and money saving with no fees or design costs
              • Learn all of this using FREE tools on the internet
              • PLUS FREE ongoing video tutorials of advanced tips and tricks
              Plus...
              I personally guarantee that anyone can make their own Custom Craigslist Ad Design simply by following these video tutorials or I will refund your purchase price 100%!

              In each video ((I provide the images for you to download and I walk you through step by step as we build each ad)).

              You can then add your own images and content to create your own ads, ((or use the techniques that I show you)) to completely make your own unique ads.


              (And it goes beyond just photoshopping) and besides, I'd rather learn from someone already doing it than by my own trial & error. If you think $25 bucks is a lot of money to learn a new business idea--imagine what folks pay just to lunch with Warren Buffett for an hour to gleen information. If THAT ain't a racket...I don't know what is! Too rich for MY blood.

      And a little humble, hand holding, creative ingenuity. I like that in people. Not everybody is like that and when I come across good people like him (ex. John Durham and some other awesome Warriors!), who are willing to (go the extra mile) to help without financially raking you over the coals or making newbies feel stupid, I'm happy to help them in return.

      want2knowhow just wanted to know if you are promoting this for another site owner or you personally own this? I'm a newbie here and I agree with you, it's better to get recommendations from the guys who already use this for a long time with best results.

        No, just happened upon his site, thought it was a terrific out of the box idea, so I shared it here.

        Well, boys and girls, be veeery careful with Craigslist. Posting ads for other people is not a very good idea at all. Here's and excerpt from CL's TOS:

        "If you are a Posting Agent that uses the Service in violation of the TOU, in addition to any liquidated damages under clause (d), you agree to pay craigslist one hundred dollars ($100) for each and every Item you post in violation of the TOU. A Posting Agent will also be deemed an agent of the party engaging the Posting Agent to access the Service (the "Principal"), and the Principal (by engaging the Posting Agent in violation of the TOU) agrees to pay craigslist an additional one hundred dollars ($100) for each Item posted by the Posting Agent on behalf of the Principal in violation of the TOU."

        It may end up costing both you and your client a lot more than you have bargained for.

        PS: Same applies to outsourcing your own CL ads.

          With many Warriors promoting using Craigslist...how does this affect them?
