Do you have a need to check on your site's various craigslist ads - and its taking too long? Are you a Community Manager, Regional Manager, Marketing Director or someone who needs to check on your apartment sites' 20+ ads and find the search, find, review process in craigslist cumbersome & time consuming?
If you have multiple apartment sites, or your sites are listing multiple apartment listings, and you don't have a good monitoring option, this TECHNOLOGY TIDBIT is for you! (A special thank you to Laurel Zacher of Bigos Management who shared this juicy technology tidbit.)
Laurel recommends using Google Gadgets + the Craigslist Monitor. 3 minutes of set-up time will save you TONS of time. Here are step-by-step instructions to make this work and save you time!
Use this is check on all your listings, whether you are just checking to see if you listings got posted, how many apartment listings you have, etc. Now instead of searching craigslist all the time, you can just check your homepage or bookmarked gadget page, and your google craiglist monitor gadget will have everything pulled for you.
Anyone currently using this? How much time does this save you? Find it useful? What other tools are you using to monitor your multiple apartment listings? Leave me a comment!
