Tell me Thursday – September 20
The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for Craigslist. This site is a place where you can list things for sale or things you’re looking for whether it’s for personal or business. If you missed the image, click here to view it.
Several years ago most people thought Craigslist was for personal use only. You could use it to sell your personal belongings you didn’t want any more or you could find things you were looking to purchase. It was the perfect way to make a little money or purchase what you needed at a much lower price than you could get if you bought it at a store.
Things have changed a little with Craigslist and now more and more businesses are using it to grow. You’ll see businesses post their job offers, promote what they offer, and sell what they don’t need in their business. Craigslist is growing and as it does, business owners are taking advantage of it and why not? If the people within your market are using Craigslist to find what they need, why wouldn’t you want to put your business out there for them to see?
Marketing is one the most important things you need when you’re a business owner and when you use the tools in front of you, you’ll begin to see the growth you’re expecting. Don’t lose out on a marketing tool, like Craigslist, because you don’t think it’s a good idea. Placing ads and job offers on Craigslist will help you make your business what you envision it to be.
