Can you earn a living off Craig's list?

I came across this blog entry about earning a living off Craigslist. It's possible to generate business leads and maintain your professional stature if you word the ads properly.

I recommend you taking a look at this post:

Earning a Living off Craigslist

My nephew was earning up to $1,000 monthly on Craigslist. He would go to yard sales, find items he knew would sell, buy them for a few dollars and turn around and sell them for up to $60 or $70. One time, he bought a pair of speakers for $2 and sold them for $90.

I call that a good mark-up.

The concern for professionals is that Craigslist may not look "professional." But the advantage is there are multitudes of people visting the site.

Perhaps you have a free report to give away or a free meet and greet event. Then posting on Craigslist shouldn't be in any way a mark against you.

I'd like to hear from anyone who has advertised their business services on Craigslist and found it helpful.
