It makes you look desperate.

 

[jimmyq]

I am. any opinion on reworking that may make it better?

 

[NeTree]

Oh the ad is nice, it's where it's posted that makes it look sleazy- ever try Green Industry Yellow Pages, or the like?

(No offense BTW)

 

[jimmyq]

no offense taken Erik, I am looking for the input. I havent done the yellow pages yet, do you find good return on investment for those ads? I admit the ebay thing is a bit of a stretch, I just figured as I was firing off resumes and searching job databases today that it was worth a shot, hard to find an appropriate catgory though.

 

[NeTree]

I get a few jobs a year from the GIYP; usually municipal work, but work is work.

As for the fee, there is none. Try a bunch of free online ads; works better if you have your own website, since it boosts your chances of being found in a search engine.

You were selling Marijuana grinding tools????????????????
I think I would have replied to that bad feedback or got rid of that user identity.

 

[jimmyq]

Todd. uhm, no. some ******* zero bidder gave me negative feedback after i left him a snarcky no response type loser feedback. I have since stopped leaving negatives to losers and just let them slide as they are more dangerous than they are worth. I had a small injection molded plastic grinder designed for use with dried herbs, I think he misread that...

The picture is what's going to get someone's attention. I would find something with better detail and more pictures than that.
