  On the last day of Q4, Salesloft posted a "free lawn mower" ad on Craigslist with my Head of Sales cell phone number. He got over 100 calls. It was a nasty tactic, almost ruined our quarter, and I wish I would have thought of it. It was 2017. Over half of Outreach’s business was SMB and transactional — small deals, fast cycles, the last day of the quarter doing 30% of the month. Mark Kosoglow was on the phone closing those deals. Or trying to. Every other call was someone asking about the lawn mower. It took us six hours to figure out what was happening. One rep checked Craigslist on a hunch and there was the ad. Mark's name. Mark's number. Free lawn mower, come pick it up. We couldn't take it down. It wasn't his ad. So Mark spent most of the day distracted and pissed. That night our team huddled. Michelle Obama was everywhere then — "when they go low, we go high." One of my execs pushed hard for this approach. I agreed. We didn’t respond. That was the wrong ******* call. When business is two guys fighting in a phone booth with a knife, you are always at war. Salesloft threw a good punch. It got us off our feet a little bit. No impact to the quarter, but definitely made it harder than it should. And most importantly it got us talking about them internally. And getting in your head, is free competitive real state. What should we have done? Get right back at them but harder! Hire away their best rep with access to their top accounts. Buy out their contracts. Hire their best engineers. Attack their customer base with all their shortcomings. Profile all their churned customers on targeted ads. Infinite possibilities to respond and a golden opportunity to take this affront as a rallying cry for the team to go take market share. ”When they go low, we stomp on them.” - that’s a better slogan Your job as a startup leader is not to take the moral high ground. The job is to win.

  My ADU was broken into recently and several musical instruments were stolen. So I built Vigilanthony An agent who tracks stolen items. It has a list of all my stolen items, and every morning scans online marketplaces like Craigslist and Ebay along with several **** shop sites surrounding the Austin area. It then analyzes the results and looks for matches with my item list. No hits yet but we will stay vigilant. ✊

  @UziCryptoo Craigslist has one bedroom apartments and even houses for $6-800 in LA. The latest generation cries more than any before. "Get up, get knocked down but, always get back up." -Mom.

  @yoxics I got in trouble for asking for a male roommate on craigslist, that's how serious they take discrimination laws.

  I hired a plumber off of craigslist to change some seals on my kitchen sinks, and convert the S trap to a proper P trap. But the drainage pipe does not go into the wall, it goes directly down. Dude claimed to be a master plumber with 15 years of experience….

  @PokeCardsDaily Yes but a this has always been a problem with high value items on marketplace/Craigslist. Should never have been trying to move a black label on marketplace especially in person. And if you think thats the only way you can get a sale done, do it INSIDE a police station or no deal

  > attempt to sell an old bar car I've had sitting around on Craigslist > get a few offers, all fall through > "motivated buyer" contacts me wanting to buy immediately > red flags go off naturally > Talk to a "DaQuarius Xxxxx" via text and phone call > keeps wanting address > tell him a parking lot > "no worries! I'll come to you!" > tell him no and have a good day > yesterday find MY car I'm selling for sale on Facebook marketplace > they won't take his post down > look online to find out who to contact with the police > website says to go into the station and give an in person report > go to the police station > "sorry sir, you have to file these sort of reports online" > show the fat lady the police website saying to come in person for situations such as mine > her brain explodes and she gets flustered and tells me to fill out a completely unrelated online form and someone should get back to me within a few weeks I'm so ******* sick and tired of criminals AND police just doing whatever to **** they want while regular Joe 2-Tallboy gets their **** packed in then stolen by criminals then their moneyforcibly taken from the government under threat of force.

  @LeavingPortland Just get basic trip permits and don't worry about it. Expired trip permits isn't an issue. Or they could buy license plates off of OfferUp or Craigslist. Use them until they expire then throw them away. Or do what Oregonians do and don't use plates or permits at all.

  @malovvave I'll give them a pass on this one just because if you've ever sold a vehicle on Craigslist or FB Marketplace it's like wading into a conglomeration of short bus graduates. So I'll pretend he's waiting for someone not crazy and then will walk down to a reasonable price.

  @evilvillain1231 @Demon_Realms More like but a $1000 car off Craigslist and learn to fix it yourself. Not servicing **** doesn't save you money, just means you'll have to replace your **** more often.

  ALLOW ME TO SHOW YOU THE REAL PROBLEM. IT'S TOTAL INSANITY ACTUALLY ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN PUT 1300 PEOPLE INTO A HOMELESS CONCENTRATION CAMP AND CLAIM THAT ALL OF THEIR PROBLEMS COME FROM DRUGS AND WHATEVER ELSE THEY DECIDE IS WRONG WITH YOU WITHOUT EVER LOOKING AT WHAT'S WRONG WITH THEM. THIS IS WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT AND THAT IS THE HOUSING SHORTAGE THAT THEY JUST CONVENIENTLY DON'T WANT TO TELL YOU ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO PUT 1300 HOMELESS PEOPLE WHEN THEY GET OUT OF THAT FACILITY? WELL THAT SHOULD BE EASY ENOUGH LET'S JUST TRY AND FIND EVERY ONE OF THEM THEIR OWN ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT ON CRAIGSLIST SO THEY CAN LIVE IN SALT LAKE CITY OF COURSE. DO IT.
