Permanently Closed Marketplace Sales Thread

I haven't posted an example in a couple of weeks and wanted to show you a fresh craigslist ad.

This guy knows how to use craigslist. Entice the viewer with an amazing offer and let the site do the selling.

No matter what you hear about craigslist ads there is still viable opportunities in using craigslist, if you make the right creative offer.

Just bought an image from artguy!

I can definitely say my ad copy turned out fantastic in this, and I should be able to make bank from CL on it.

Thanks.

Hello artguy,

I couldn't pm you but I'm ready to order a second ad from you. If you can pm, I'd appreciate it!

Thanks

Hi Souldemon.
I don't know why you couldn't PM me but I just sent you a message on how you can reach me.
It will be good to work with you again.
Actually BHW has been very quiet for me lately.
I guess it is a summer thing.

Just finished doing a bank of google image ads for a guy over at another famous forum.
Let's see how did he put it? Oh yea, I know you do Hyper Cute Image Ads.

Been laughing about that for days now.
I create ads that do the job if cute is what it takes then cute it is.
If bland is what it takes then bland it is.

A few of my clients have been asking for this lately so I have decided to incorporate a no JS hit counter into every ad I create and code.
Of course it will be very small and discrete well below the ad itself.
A client of mine in TX found that by doing this in several different ads with the same image that certain title headlines received more hits than others. He was able to then determine which title pulled the best and then began working around that title.

Testing and more testing has resulted in a $5,000 sale.
In the mean time he has reduced his newspaper ad budget from a $1,000 a month to around $300 a month.
Not only is he saving 700 a month but now getting more sales.

Happy testing.

Awesome service. Love my Craigslist ad for DraeMoon.com. You can post it here if you like! More business for my client. Ha! I can't wait for my new client to be done so I can hire you for his ads! Looking forward to converting these into image ads for Google and Facebook too!

Thanks so much,
Alexa

 

[artguy51]

It was great working with Alexa. She is very dynamic and very professional.
As she suggested I am posting the ad as another example of the work this
community is allowing me to do for them.

I can't say I did the actual writng but I gleaned what she had written from the site.
A little here and a little there, pulled it together and punched it just a bit.

Recently, I had the opportunity to create a series of email ads and google image ads for an old client.
Here are a couple of examples of email ads simple and to the point each are 600 px wide for easy viewer reading

As a Mid-Summer Special Offer I am offering a BOGO

While I can't do a BOBO for $45 I can do this from my regular price of $79 per ad.

That is still a great offer of less than $40 per ad.
You Can either contact me here or go to my blog. Link below.

[artguy51]

Well the BOGO is over and here is a layout a client ordered from the promo.
The creativity from here never ceases to amaze me. It is a great concept that if
promoted often on CL will do very well. It will probably not get flagged either. I am
anxious to find out the results of his efforts.

 

[snakemebite]

wow. the quality is splendid..

 

[tubeincreaser]

Can you do websites, business cards and flyers?
If so I want to order 1 of each and a craigslist ad.

 

[artguy51]

Hi Tubeincreaser,

Just PMd you on this.
But yes, I do web sites and almost anything that can be printed.

 

[artguy51]

I don't get many of these kinds of ads but this ad for an adult site was
a lot of fun to do. The whole project included this craigslist image ad plus banners for
placing on adult sites. Once I got this one designed the others happened pretty naturally.
I just couldn't resist dropping in the splat at just the right spot. A little subliminal or not so subliminal graphic element really added to the whole effect.

 

[getem]

He created a GREAT custom Craigslist ad for me a few months ago and the work he did was amazing.

 

[artguy51]

Recent ad. LOL there is a new program every week.
I suppose he will post it in the jobs section but I don't know

This one actually looks pretty good.

I have never had this happen before but the link for imageshack died or was deleted.

 

[chano420]

Artguy did two ads for me. His communication was very professional and his turn around time was outstanding. I hit him up on a Friday and he was able to finish one that day, and worked on Saturday just to finish my second one. The artwork itself was top notch as you can see with all of his examples in here. Highly recommended, and for the price why would you go anywhere else?

Thanks man

 

[artguy51]

Thanks chano420,
for the positive comment. It was a fun project.
Here are the reduced in size ads chano mentioned.

Since I provided him with the psd files the body copy/text
is just greeking (sample text for him to replace)

It is fun when with just a few tweeks an ad can transform to a new look
yet also give a congruent look for branding.
Some new colors a couple of brushes and viola a new ad.

LOL sounds simple doesn't it? it is when you have been creating ads
as long as I have.

 

[marketingwise]

This man does beautiful work. He has done a couple a pages for me so far. Great deal.
You will be thrilled with the results.
