Hi Folks,

I have heart from people that quality from FC is poor quality.
What is your personal experience from free classified for your business?

Is the quality of leads really bad for network marketing business
and mainly FC is best for real estate?

I find free ads a waste of time. Most of the calls I receive are from people trying to push some magical lead system. They also like to call when I am at work. One of these days I when I answer their call, I will ask them to sign up for my business first, before I will consider theirs.

Tadas.Hi!

Free lists does not worth the time.

A short story :
I was a member of Sponsor Daddy a nice system to recruit...I was told that my monthly payment allowed met have 10k yes...ten thousand of fresh names send to my funnel...in three months 30K...yes thirty thousand names...and two individuals spent couple hours in my funnel and none of them converted.

My point is:

Not even the paid lists are worthy almost 90 % of the time...they are not targeted...they are not accurate...and the worst part...you have to pay in advance to the list broker...and you know the rest...remember the movie "Catch Me If You Can" finding the guy to ask for a refund is a mission impossible.

Tadas...do you know that in Facebook...you do not even need to know nothing about SEO and those complicated things about buying hundreds of keywords? In Facebook you have all you need there in silver platter...and everything is there GEOGRAPHICALLY and DEMOGRAPHICALLY...and in top of that you can find people for their best interest...yes...what is their primary interest...WHY IN THE WORLD DO YOU NEED TO BUY LIST THAT THE ONLY THING YOU WILL EARN IS ONE HUNDRED COMPLAINS OF SPAM?

Base upon your name you must speak Greek or something like that...but your English is better than mine...you can do it...learn how to use Social Media and forget about buying list that even the Nigerian guys have.Yes those guys that send you an e-mail saying that they have twenty millions of dollars that a widow left in a bank account but since they are a high level government figure they need you to give them your bank account info so you can share half of the fortune with him..yes those guys have those lists can you imagine how piss off your e-mail recipients are going to be after being bombarded with fake opportunities twenty times a day?

Be well,

That makes sense that don't use Free classified sites, that use registration form
and they share your details with third parties.
Sure I will never buy email advertising from them, but I think Free classified paid advertising
for featured ads works, just need to find active places and to create good funnel for that.
Here is the video how I am testing free classified sites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXwhXiJXXBc

I think also E-zines solos can bring quality, but anyways
mostly you can recruit newbie to your downline from classified.
Does newbie bad quality? not always
worst quality is programs jumpers.

You are wrong, my native language is Lithuanian

I made this thread to see people's opinions and results they got from Free Classifieds

I would probably stick with just Craigslist and maybe a couple of other free classified sites. I've been getting a pretty a good response with Backpage.

[Dave Hayes Company: Magnetic Sponsoring Contribution Level: 7]

i find that Craigs list is Good, as is ADLANDPRO, Sonar247, and Yahoo Groups, all of which for me over the years have been responsive.

Indeed Adland Pr, gets me a TON of visitors WEEKLY, or at least thats what my stats tell me.

Applied Knowledge is THE Difference.

I haven't gotten any leads yet, even when I did featured listings, and the only emails I've gotten are from people trying to push their own programs. I think it's dumb to go after people who are posting ads for their own stuff... they clearly aren't posting ads to get offers to spend more money on something else. Like, come on!

Yes I agree with you, but also there are option, that your email address would not be
shows or you are not interesting in other people offers.

It annoys me too, many of them just desperate to sale and make money to us.

I used free classifieds for months on a daily basis certainly at least 5 maybe 6 days a week and i got nothing from them. I always got plenty of clicks on the ad but very few clicks on my link (according to my stats). I would do a minimum 60 a day. They're just not targeted enough to get good quality leads on a consistent basis. Not worth the time or hassle in my opinion.

Saying that for anyone who has just started or is thinking of starting free classifieds you really need to give them time certainly a few months on a consistent basis to see if they'll work for you. You'll be wasting your time just giving them a week or two.

Good Luck
Kenny
