In this article we are going to take a closer look at my top 3 tips to convert craigslist leads with effortless ease. If we are being honest, getting an avalanche of eyeballs in front of your offer is dummy simple purely as a function of scale - with SO many people browsing each category you'd probably have to try NOT to get lots looks. But, as those of you who are regularly posting on CL has unquestionably already learned, converting those window shoppers into cold hard cash is another kettle of fish altogether. But not for long. Read on as I open your eyes to a few possibilities you probably haven't considered. Be an Entertaining Host I love using video landing page for Craigslist offers. Most CL viewers are a tad short on the technology totem pole and quite frankly, are impressed pretty easily. How do you capitalize on this? Set up a free video channel as a landing page, offer FREE video on the niche topic in the listing (which will motivate even the lazy lookers to take the leap over to your offer) and then simply, either embed affiliate offers into the video itself with simple editing software, or wrap the offers into the html around the video itself with simple call to action verbiage - i.e. - click here for more fun, great content on "X". Works like a charm, is easy, and you look creative which I find very attractive in an affiliate marketer. Squeeze them till it hurts Look, everyone knows this already, yet SO few people are doing this to promote affiliate offers on CL. Get them on a list. STOP trying to re-direct every offer straight to the affiliate, and START collecting names. I have lists of people I've built on CL segmented by city, category and so forth from a year ago that I can mail tonight if I feel like it, just to share my thoughts on Tuesdays final democratic debate between Obama and Hillary. I'd like to hear their thoughts on Google depreciating the value of the clicks across my veritable army of travel related affiliate sites. How come no one ever talks about the plight of the affiliate marketer in those debate things anyway? Are we not part of the voting public? It's always about the factory workers and the farmers and so forth. It's really unfair if you think about it. Anyway - you get my point, build a list so you can keep in touch when you feel the need to share your feelings with the group. The bottom line with affiliate marketing on Craigslist is you have to be adventurous, ambitious and simply refuse to fail. It's so easy, so much FUN, and yet so few people are able to put all the pieces together in once coherent, creative, cash creating crash course in financial freedom. Which means there will be more for you if you do..;-) Have fun! |
