    Catchy CL listing...

    I see a lot of "Licensed Daycare Has Openings" "Openings in XYZ town" "Affordable Daycare" but I want something that sticks out a bit more...

    Any catchy ideas?

                  I did put in my ad that if they mention they found me on CL i'd offer $10 off the first week.

                    thats a start... I think the zero to start really helps, as a lot of people charge a lot up front...but this is only if you are willing to go without taking a deposit to start with...

                    I did not charge a start up fee, but charged an additional fee of $25.00 each week until the extra fees added up to two full weeks of dc fees....As soon as they reached the amount, it dropped back down to normal fees. This way you have a 2 week deposit.

                      Hm, I hadn't thought of doing that. I think I can see the benefit, but I'm not sure that something I was considering doing.

                          How about something that says mention you saw this add on CL and recieve 10.00 off a week for a whole month of daycare.
                          Letting them know in the interview the 10 dollars off a week for a month of daycare is AFTER they have been there a month and have made it through the two week trial.

                          Or maybe say something like this: Is your child smart, happy, eager learner? Then I have a spot for you in my daycare. (what parent doesn't think their child is SO SMART, etc?) Or Looking for smart, happy, eager learning *** age child to fill my last opening in my daycare.

                            Are you looking for a CL Subject that is catchy so they're just open your advertisement?

                            The ONLY thing recently that instantly caught my attention was
                            "Now Interviewing" which was posted under childcare and nothing else was said in the subject line. Then, it was basically information about the daycare spot that is soon-to-be available....like 2 weeks out.
