I posted a vehicle on craigslist that is desirable to the Mexican population in my area. So, I posted it in Spanish using G translator. When the ad went live, I started getting scores of emails of people responding by complaining "Get the hell out of our country" and "Speak English" blah blah blah.

I ended the ad after about 30 minutes of getting cussed out. But, if it were a marketing campaign, image how many gullible, simple emails you would get your hands on. :D I counted 27 emails in the first 30 minutes. Thought someone on here could use this info to their advantage.
 
I agree. I'm sure it's gonna work in most states. You can't change human behavior, but you can exploit it.
 
Yes, I'm in Missouri. They are not unusually racist around here though. Like I said, probably good in a lot of states.
 
That's fucking creative. Definitely target southern states.

Maybe post one in Arabic, too. Boy, that would get you some hate emails.
 
Now you're thinking! Don't think it has to be Southern though. You could even put your favorite sports team in as one of the images. Put a Dallas cowboys image in for a Pittsburg PA ad.

Dental policies and nose hair clippers maybe.
 
you could send them to a content locked page that has a video with some illegal aliens getting their asses kicked by the border patrol. ive never targeted racist people, but it might make you a few bucks.
 
some how we should twist this info...

I didn't state above, but of course the CL title was in Spanish. That is why it got so much attention as they browsed the listings. I would say that you would also need to put a popular vehicle year and name in order to get traffic after the ad goes onto deeper pages.
 
WTF are you gonna market to them? NRA and clan memberships? LOL That is pretty funny though.

since they were looking for cars maybe a marshall auction offer this method is dynamite

just ran 4 test ads

2 in arabic - white ford vans lol

2 in spanish - droptops
 
One white ford van. Almost used once, but chickened out. lol
