To get your How-to on writing up an ad and selling your book on Craig's List, you need to email me at sjeditor@yahoo.com. I have a PDF I can send you but I can't send it unless you give me your email address. Thanks for all the responses; it's been amazing to hear from so many!
I very would love a PDF ad copy. I need all the assistants I can get to sell my booklet and books and able to donate to non profit organization in my community.
I too would like to see the "how to." I've used craigs list for posting ads for books, but have little success in those ads generating sales. They do give you a small bit of traffic (which is always welcome) and a backlink (although it has the "no follow" tag embedded so it only partially counts in SEO endeavors). There are also a lot of other "ad sites" that allow you to do the same thing, but none are as popular as craigs list (perhaps another set of links I should build for the community...).
I'd love to learn some more about this. Please send me the pdf at pnj "at" bauuinstitute.com
Yeah, trouble with Craig's list is that they don't want you putting up the same ad on a lot of cities at once. Which is a bummer when you're trying to market a book.
They have an amazing reach, but make it tough to mass market.
