When it comes to building your buyers list, one of the best promotional tools out there is Craigslist. The great thing about Craigslist is that it's FREE and extremely effective because it's such a huge marketplace for real estate investors.

Craigslist has changed a lot since I first started using it to build my buyers list. The original technique behind this approach used to be very easy and effective. Still, over the years (as spammers and other garbage posters started clogging up the "For Sale" sections of the site), Craigslist has ratcheted down their posting criteria to be MUCH more restrictive than it was before.

At the time of this writing, there isn't a lot of flexibility in what you can write in your listings (no fancy HTML coding, no clickable images, no links to outside websites, etc). These new rules were created to keep many of the spammers OUT and the legitimate buyers and sellers IN.

So what does this mean for real estate investors trying to build their buyers lists? Essentially, we need to be more creative with finding ways to let the world know about what we're offering and how people can get in on it.

The most effective and noticeable ads are going to have a great headline, high-quality images, and (for the purpose of what we're doing) a very brief explanation of what you're offering and what people can find out more. #realestate #retipster #sethwilliams #realestateinvesting #landinvesting
