Boy, what a wealth of knowledge...I'll check out these "free" sites. Thank you.
One of the guys in my office just showed this to me a couple of day ago. It does exactly what I want it to do. The market is slow right now for sellers.
Postlets is terrific. They are so easy to use and look great. I did try Classified Flyer Ads but don't see the use in paying (only two are free) when Postlets are so quick. I do have Classifief Flyer Ads call me button on my site.
Postlets is a good service for free but if your are looking for a lot more features and exposure then ClassifiedFlyerAds.com offers so much more for the small monthly fee that is charged. Following is a quick comparison. Please correct me if I missed anything.

Over 80% of flyers reach page 1 of Google | No | Yes |

So its a matter of choosing a good service that has a lot less features and provides a lot less exposure for free or choosing to pay a very small fee for a whole lot more features and exposure.
Thanks for sharing! Has anyone had any success that paid off of postlets? I read alot about leads but nothing about closings... Don't get me wrong I love leads but just wandered if anything paid off when it came to those leads or were they mainly just lookie-lous?
Thanks again for sharing!

My client was hoping to use Postlets for renting or leasing a property but they didn't have an option for that! Darn!
I use postlets and have generated a ton of leads. I have closed a number of those leads and my sellers are happy with the exposure that postlets gives to their property.
i discovered postlets myself a few days ago. I like them because I can create a "Featured Listings" page by using the code they provide for the mini-postlets.
I, too, have been using Postlets for some time. But I have never received a lead from it. I like the look of the ads on Postlet and the price is right. I have never heard of ClassifiedFlyerAds.com. I just pulled up that website after reading the post from Misty. That definitely looks worth trying. Thanks to both Evaristo and Misty.
I don/t use postlets and I am always looking for ways to advertise. I will give it a shot. Thanks.
I have been using vflyers but will definitely have to check out Postlets - and Misty thanks for the chart about ClassifiedFlyerAds.com that looks pretty good too
Postlets are awesome. I have been using it for months and love it. Great post.
Thank you for the post and for getting all these comments as well! I read them all and I got to say I learned a lot from the comments too!
Postslets is a great resource for generating leads, especially when used with Craigslist and Backpage
