Hey, I was thinking about posting on craigslist but I'm not sure how successful this would be. Has anyone tried it? And if you had what were the responses?

Thanks!
 
We can not post on Criag's list or other online places like eBay. Chek the policy guide and your agreement for details on that.
 
I did it once. Luckily, another consultant was nice to me and e-mailed me to let me know it was a no-no instead of turning me in. I re-vamped the ad to remove any direct references to PC. All I got was spam... Not worth it.

Thanks guys!
 
Yeah. definitely go and read the Consultant Policies. Everything is clearly outlined. A definite must for any new consultant. (-:
 
I used to work for another company as a independent contractor (I set up the speed dating events locally). They encouraged us to post on CL. I never got anything from it other than a waste of my time and a lot of spam, and a few sickos.
 
Craigs list is very specific in there guidelines as to network marketing companies banned in every way, shape and form. Besides the fact that I doubt if PC allows it, craigs list will pull any ad down that mentions an opportunity or direct sales brand. You could however sell an item such as a baking stone, or a food chopper or a roasting pan. No brands listed but a picture works too. If you have a blog CL is a great way to get incoming links and traffic although it is a bit of a pain as they only run them a week - 10 days so you need to go in and relist.
