Inside the Classified Advertisement

Above is a picture of what an advertisment may look like for the Local Community Calender. There are several components that are important to the success of your portal's classified business.

Success Invention #3

Users may type text for their classified ads with no use whatsoever of HTML and still have a great looking advertisement.

Success Invention #4

Each category has a different header graphic to describe which category they are browsing.

Success Invention #5

Advanced users may use HTML to create very fancy advertisements, adding tables, fonts, pictures, layouts, etc.

Success Invention #6

Users that are not advanced in HTML may easily upload up to 4 pictures on the free advertisements using our uploader. They may upload up to 10 pictures if they purchase a premium advertisement.

Success Invention #7

All advertisements have the username of the person that posted the advertisement. The user can decide what their username will be. The username links to the "About Me" pages for the user so that prospective buyers can learn more about the person that is selling the service or product.

Success Invention #8

There is a graphic link to the "Friends" on the users "About Me" pages. This lets prospective buyers see comments from other users that have done business with this particular user. More about this "Friends" later.

Success Invention #9

There is a graphic link to the "Post a Note." This lets prospective buyers ask a question that will appear below the advertisement, assuming the advertiser has turned on the function.

When a prospective buyers ask a question an email notice is sent to the owner of the advertisement notifying them. The advertiser may then post a response or answer to the question, and both are viewable by all people visiting the advertisement.

Many times advertisers forget important information when trying to make a sale, so this feature helps to fill in those gaps. For example, perhaps you have a 1969 mustang for sale. A question is posted by a prospective buyer as to how many miles are on the car, and you can respond. Then everyone reading the advertisement will not have to ask the same question, and it will help you make the sale.

Success Invention #10

There is a graphic link to the private email function for the users. More on this feature later.

Sales is a numbers game! Pick Your Numbers!

Please note that some of our portal directors with experience in sales get 25% of the business owners they give a presentation to purchase a premium listing. If you are new to sales the industry standard is normally 10%. This in no way guarantees you will have these percentages, but some of our directors report 25% closing ratio once a business owner has been given a full presentation.
