Service · Classifieds

Classified ad management for your local market.

Stay visible to customers searching outside the major paid platforms. We manage classified listings on suitable platforms, including Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace and OfferUp, where your service and category are supported.

Starting at $600/month

  • Platform eligibility checked first
  • Copy and images approved by you
  • Client-owned, authorized accounts
  • Monthly service; 30 days’ cancellation notice

What’s included

What this service can cover.

  • Eligibility & listing plan

    Check which platforms, service categories and locations are suitable before accepting the work. The plan names the accounts, listings, renewal schedule and separate platform costs. We do not promise the same posting frequency everywhere.

  • Craigslist listing support

    Prepare accurate local copy and approved images for permitted categories. Any publishing support must be permitted by Craigslist and use authorized access. Where third-party publishing is not permitted, we prepare materials for the account owner to publish.

  • Other eligible platforms

    Assess OfferUp’s Services feed and other relevant business listing options. Verification, subscription and category rules apply. Facebook Marketplace is included only after current service/category and account eligibility are confirmed.

  • Approved copy & images

    Prepare the copy variations and image templates named in the work plan. Describe the real business, offer, price basis and service area. Variations improve clarity and relevance; they are not used to disguise prohibited duplicate listings.

  • Listing review & maintenance

    Review listing status and make permitted edits or renewals. If a listing is rejected, check the stated reason and correct an eligible listing or stop that activity. We do not buy accounts, bypass moderation or guarantee continued publication.

  • Monthly activity & response report

    Report on prepared or published listings, approved locations, provider charges and recorded inquiries. Separate management fees from listing costs and explain any measurement gaps.

Scope boundary

What’s NOT included.

We’re explicit about scope so there are no surprises. These items are outside this service. Some are covered by other services we offer, some are not.

  • Advertising on Google or Meta Ads
  • New websites or landing-page builds
  • Original photography or a complete brand identity
  • Purchased accounts, false locations or moderation bypass
  • Publishing that a platform does not permit us to perform
  • Guaranteed approvals, listing uptime, call volume or cost per inquiry

Listing availability and response vary by platform, category and local demand. We confirm a permitted delivery method before starting. If no suitable route exists, we do not sell a posting plan for that platform.

Honest fit check

Is this the right service for your business?

Good fit if…

  • A business with an eligible service or product category
  • Real contact details, service coverage and approved assets
  • An owner able to complete required account verification
  • A team that can respond to relevant local inquiries

Probably not if…

  • The plan depends on prohibited categories or false locations
  • You expect account purchases or moderation workarounds
  • No permitted publishing or listing-support route is available

Ask us anything
Is classified advertising suitable for my business?

It can be a supplementary route when the category is allowed and local customers use the platform. We check eligibility and a practical delivery method before recommending a plan; we do not claim it is always cheaper than paid advertising.

What happens if a listing is removed?

We review the reason and the platform’s rules. A permitted listing may be corrected or appealed through the available process. We do not promise approval, use false identities or bypass moderation.

Do you use purchased accounts or automated posting?

No. We do not purchase accounts or use tools to evade restrictions. Publishing must use a permitted method and authorized account access. Manual posting still has to follow the platform’s rules.

How many cities and listings are included?

The $600 monthly base covers one agreed city. The $900 option covers up to five; larger programs start at $1,400. Actual service coverage and platform location rules determine the city list. Listing quantities and renewal frequency are specified before payment, and platform fees are separate.

Can I approve the materials first?

Yes. You approve the initial copy, images, business details and listing plan. Material changes are reviewed before use.

Can you post services on OfferUp and Facebook Marketplace?

OfferUp supports eligible professional services through its Services feed, with verification and subscription requirements. Marketplace eligibility must be checked against the current rules and your account. Neither platform is automatically included for every business.
