Plain Craigslist ads are boring. With a number of different companies providing colorful templates with which apartment companies can post their information, you’re behind in the game if you’re just using text and adding a few pictures. But just as I warned in a previous blog post, some of these “professional” companies might be leading you astray.
Now, I understand that there is a big push to market to Gen Y, which means finding youthful designs and figuring out what amenities will appeal to this demographic:
But wait… Last time I checked, Gen Y didn’t include girls between the ages of 5 and 10. And didn’t I see something somewhere about when it’s ok to use Comic Sans?
At least one company is getting Craigslist ads right…
