I spent about three hours creating a video and Craigslist ad in 2015 to sell a 2002 Ford Taurus. A few days after I shared it on Facebook, I got a call from a Daily Mail reporter.

The day after her story ran, the video went viral.

I was later interviewed by Fast Company and local news organizations, I was a guest on syndicated radio shows and I got a call from the producers of Ellen about a potential opportunity that unfortunately never came to fruition.

I learned a lot about engaging content and what it is like to be in the center of a digital media frenzy.

Here’s a short list of media outlets that ran the video.

Car Throttle
Daily Mail
Digg
Fast Company
Gizmodo
Jalopnik
New York Daily News
Road and Track
The Verge
