Hey, I have tried a few different ads and they aren't pulling in any leads.  Any of you have tested ads that pull well & could share?
If you don't want to post to everyone please at least pm me.
            
            Also, what is the best time of day to post?

I have been running a couple ads for a while now with not one good lead. Can someone share their ad? The above links are outdated. Any other tips would be appreciated!

Wait a second - I just noticed I am responding to all the craigs lists ads.......

Then I notice the date - they are all old......

Then I notice this guy Desmond is digging up all these old Criags Lists ads

Then I notice he is trying to sell the huge mysterious secrets of craigs list - like it is a mystery at this point.

Pretty lame Desmond.

8 / 12 / 5 are the best times for me to post.

Short - to the point - use bullets and photos.

While I LOVE the ad Tom wrote and I am sure it pulls well - I have never been that creative.

I find the more info I give pertaining to the house the better.

I find the more info Leave off - the more BS calls I get.

put the address - the rent / security / full amount to move in etc....

Otherwise you will get a ton of calls that don't qualify.

Oh - and I totally agree you need to do your own testing - this is one area (FREE) where you can do it.

Test - rewrite - test - rewrite repeat.

As for my testing - I find as long as I give all the info I get a good amount of calls.

My best response time occurs on weekend early mornings and weekday late evenings. But it will vary according to your market. Tracking, trial, and error is the best solution.

I get better responses during the week.  Some people like browsing craigslist while at work.

Are wufoo.com and formspring.com equal comparisons?

Mark,

Actually with that ad I have gotten a lot of response from the younger generation that is simply tired of living in a dump. We have a major issue with Slum lords in my area and this seems to grab attention.
