Business declines as the Ad gets pushed down

I'm surprised you suffer from any pack of business. Your attitude, looks, and skills kick ass. I wish I lived closer...

If you have ever posted something for sale on Craigslist, you would understand this totally! But then, amazingly, I have had people asking about the advertised items weeks after they were already sold...go figure??
Probably posting regularly is a solution. So many advertisers, and short attention spans and memories!
You might want to consider new pics to add some "sizzle" to the steak as they say in the ad business, of which I am not an expert...
Just my 2 pennies.

Good point. Why CL and not here?! I think we all post regularly. Have to follow the guidelines.

I got in trouble once: after I posted my Weekend lineup ad, I posted my regular ad that Monday.
That was too soon, however, because I had posted an ad in the regular section only 6 days earlier. Has to be full 7 days

Yes, I know there are rules here about the timing between posts, so I understand the dilemma. I was only using Craigslist as an example of how fast ads get pushed down, and easily not read, as many readers will only look at the latest 10 or so.
One benefit here is that the unread ads are in bold so its easy to identify which ones we haven't read, and mentioned above, I try to always look at the unread posts to see who might be available.
