Craigslist is free for its users However,there is a cost for advertisers, which isdecided basis the part of country you arebased in For example, an Ad that costs
$75.00 in bay area of San Franciscoarea would cost around $10.00 in city ofNew York
The graphics of this site are very easy,simple and clear-cut and has almostremained unchanged since 1995, when it
Trang 13was started.
One fascinating thing about this amazingonline classifieds is that it has a flaggingsystem for its users This system quicklyhelps them identify illegal and improperads that are posted on the portal As this
is a free to all site and anyone can postads without even having an account, fakeads are unavoidable and often expected
To neutralize this, almost any site visitorcan do the flagging

Selling Process on Craigslist
Few people think that you may just
Trang 21throw your items on this site and getcash in return This can be correct, but to
be a successful seller and make moreprofits, you need to be different fromothers and your presentation of productsshould also be unique Here are a fewtips that would be helpful for you forbeing a regular and profitable seller onCraigslist
Research the Market properly
Market research is primarily required tocheck competition and to identify thepopularity of your product This shouldnot take a lot of time, but surely wouldhelp you identify the probabilities of
Trang 22your product being sold and tentativecost These are the most importantaspects when you are planning to sellsomething In case your item is notpopular, you may hold it for some timeuntil it is more popular.
In reference to Craigslist, marketresearch specifically means, locating theitem you are planning to list here In caseyou find a lot of listings, than yourproduct is common Here, people tend tosearch for common items However, ifthe listings are less (say just 1-2), thenit’s an uncommon product Other crucialpointers you need to check here are:
Trang 23• Pricing for other items
• Description of other items
• How these are different or relate toyour item
Describe your Item in and out
A quality description is something whichworks as a salesperson when you are notthere to physically describe your item.Few question which can be answeredeasily with a good description are:
• What is your product?
• Are there any problems in it?
• Are any items missing?
• Is it used or new?
Trang 24• Pricing
• Your point of purchase
Remember, if you have included adetailed and a quality description, youwould get a lot less queries Think of theinformation you would be looking forwhen you purchase that exact same thingand make sure to include all those thingspre-hand You can include:
Trang 25• Issues
• Any such thing that you feel should
be shared with the buyers
Sellers who have poor descriptionsdon’t sell well
Display Photographs
Photographs are considered to be anessential and an amazing way to boostyour sales You can upload multipleimages of each listing on Craigslist Irrespective of the product, at least oneimage should be included for yourlisting
Trang 26If possible include the photographs takenfrom different angles Great photographscan actually help you sell your product Remember, good photographs can giveyou good sales, however, with terriblephotographs results would also beterrible
Highlight Competition
Everyone is very price consciousnowadays and Craigslist gets benefitednaturally All the deals on this portal arejust about exchanging You as a sellergive the best price and in turn a buyerwould offer you their counter
Trang 27The key point here is to stay incompetition and for that you always need
to keep a watch on your competitors:
• What is the cost of their item?
• Are you quoting higher than them?
• If their cost is less, why?
To sell the products efficiently andquickly, the price would be a majordeciding factor You can start high andthen go low By doing so, you wouldhave the opportunity to negotiate
Reply Swiftly
Everyone wants their things swiftly and
Trang 28without any problems Never keep yourprospective buyers waiting for theclarifications or for answers to theirqueries This is considered very rude.Just keep in mind that they are trying tocontact you for something (a sale) whichwould benefit both, so be nice and replyquickly.
Meetings should be planned at a public place.
This is primarily for your safety Everyone whom you meet on webworld is not trustworthy So, allowingpeople to come to you home would belike compromising with your safety Be
Trang 29careful and be safe…
How to earn money by reselling the Freebies available on Craigslist
You would have utilized Craigslist veryoften to sell or buy things, but wouldn’thave ever realized that there are peoplewho give away freebies as well on thissite
This site has a section specificallydedicated to this option, “Free.” Peoplejust give away the things for free,because it is many times easier to get rid
of them in this way as compared totaking the time to selling it However, it
Trang 30is not always so difficult to sell theseitems, you just need learn the art ofselling and you can earn in thousands byselling the items you get for free.
How to locate free items?
• Log on to the website and click onyour city or the one that is closest toyou (if yours is not listed)
• On reaching the local directory,under “For Sale” section, click “free”link
Here you will see Ads for almost everything, few examples are:
Trang 31• Leftovers from a sale
• Artificial Christmas tree
• Full size functional trampoline
• Television
Check the description and pictures of thelisted items and collect all the itemswhich are in good condition The mottohere is very simple, collect as many
Trang 32good and free things as possible and listthem back on this site for sale Anythingearned in this way would be a clearprofit.
How to resell these freebies?
There are different ways to sell the itemsthat you picked for free on Craigslist,few can be:
1 Resell on Craigslist
2.Sell to specific buyers
First option is a clear example offlipping where you are capitalizing onthe inefficiencies of the market When
Trang 33you are flipping an item, you purchasecheap and sell at a higher price onanother place Free is the lowest form ofcheap, and “another place” would just
be a different Ad category than free
The next option works only for specificitems and is sold to specialized buyersonly For example, selling tiles to aflooring company, electronics or luggagecould be sold directly to pawn shop
If you are planning to opt for this option,you should have a list prepared for thebest places you sold an item to This listcan include:
• Metal buyers (for copper and
Trang 34aluminum items),
• Pawn shops (tools, luggage, jewelryand electronics),
• Buyers for used appliance
• Old furniture buyers
Trang 35expenditure.
Trang 37Chapter 4: Items that
Craigslist
Items which are priced higher, and withsufficient supplies, are the best products
to be sold and bought on this portal
Why products which are high priced?
Items priced higher give an opportunity
to earn more profit as compared to lowpriced products, assuming that theamount of total work required is same.However on the flip side, when you
Trang 38purchase high priced products, yourchances for loss also increase So, it isrecommendable to move slowly towardshigher priced products, this would giveyou a learning curve as well.
Inefficient market: What is it?
In this sort of market place buyers do nothave ample information about anyproduct to take a knowledgeabledecision, like what product to bepurchased and at what cost Or, insimpler term, this is a less exploredmarket
For example, in comparison of Apple
Trang 39products and furniture, furniture marketwould be an inefficient market As cost
of a new or used Apple product can bedetermined from any place, be it aphysical market or online
Sufficient supply: What is it?
There should be an ample amount ofitems you are willing to sell or buy, sothat you could achieve your profit andincome goals
Considering all the afore mentionedfactors, the following items can beconsidered as the top ten items to bebought or sold on Craigslist
Trang 4010 Mobile Phones
Mobile Phones, especially new smartphones are being sold at a good price inthe used markets As people frequentlyupgrade their phones, their supply islarge The demand is bigger because itseems expensive to replace a broken orlost phone The mobile phone market isinefficient because people get theirmobile phones by their carrier provider,hence obscuring its actual cost from itsreal holder
