Craigslist Marketing And How To Do It

After the release of Mark McDonald’s Craigslist Profits (which is now closed) I really began to receive a lot of PM’s from the Warrior Forum and just general emails from other forums I frequent. Unfortunately, I do not know if he sold that site or not, or exactly what the deal is. I had one hell of a testimonial on his sales page using that product. I remember buying it and joining Mark’s forum very vividly. I should probably tell you now that the guy was either 14 or 16 years old at the time that I bought it. An awesome guy, and I wish I had started at that age. Anyway, the product was basically a set of MP3 Audios that I listened to.

It contained tips and tricks on how to market on Craigslist. The most important thing about marketing on Craigslist is your ad copy. I was blown away at Mark’s examples of his ad copy. It was really mind blowing.  I decided to give it a try. The next morning I had email accounts setup and my ad copy written for them. I was marketing a link building campaign and a telephone SEO Consultation. Needless to say, I got more clients than I could handle. I did do it for over a month, but I got so overwhelmed after my first week of posting ads, that I shut it down completely. All in all, I was able to gross over $14,000 in about 12 days. Not too bad if I do say so myself.

 Now that I have covered that I am very familiar with Craigslist and I have had some really good success, let me give out a few pointers when using.
