So you’re thinking about using free online classified ads to promote your home daycare business, huh? Listed below you’ll find 10 Success Tips that will help you to use this marketing strategy to its maximum potential: Success Tip #1 Create a compelling headline. Your headline is the most important part of your ad. Its job is to capture the attention of your prospect and provide a compelling reason for them to read further. Otherwise, your prospect will simply scan right past your ad & move on to the next one. Success Tip #2 Keep the body of your ad short and sweet. Don't try to squeeze every detail about your program into the body of your ad. The goal of your ad is to generate inquiries. You're not selling your program (yet). You're selling prospects on the action of replying to your ad. Think of it as an invitation. Follow the K.I.S.S. rule here: "Keep It Simple Sweetie". Success Tip #3 Create an urgent Call-To-Action. End your body copy by telling your prospect exactly how to respond to your ad: Call, email, visit us online, etc. Use deadlines or limits to encourage prompt responses. If prospects feel they need to act fast, they will. If they feel they can sit around and think about it, they will. lol Success Tip #4 As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. Help your ad stand out by using images whenever possible. An image of your business card, banner, playroom or outdoor area are good candidates. Make sure that your images fit within acceptable size limits. Otherwise, they may not be displayed. Success Tip #5 Use a text file to keep your ads organized and ready to go. Whenever you need to fill a couple of spots for Summer Camp, an odd part-time opening, or announce your next Open House, posting your ad will be a breeze. You simply copy and paste your information into the form boxes and Voila!, you’re done. Be sure to check out Part 2 of this article where we’ll cover Success Tips 6-10.
