Leaflet distribution

[armyash]

Hi

Who here regularly has leaflets delivered?

I have a batch I need to get out and I want to get them delivered by a company. I have 5000, I want to get 15000 out over the next couple of months. I don't have time to do it myself.

I'm struggling to find a company locally who does this. (Sittingbourne).

I know it's not going yo be cheap but it's worth doing to see what difference it makes. I don't want to pay a student, I'd rather pay a company that has a reputation to worry about.


If anyone could recommend a company I'd be grateful.
Thanks

Ask at the local uni or college I bet you'll find some willing people there for a bit of cash.

No chance Lou,you will find all the leaflets in a bin, this is why ash wants a reliable method.

Yes working for a firm. 8 - 5, Monday to Friday, been with them 6 months now and all going well, I'm enjoying it.

Private work out of hours is allowed so while I have a set routine I can plan work around my normal hours. I may as well make the most of it, I'm now getting plenty of family time and could still spare some time to earn some extra cash.

I'm still registered self employed so any extra income would be declared.

Thanks for the replies so far, I'm sure there are plenty of trustworthy students who would do a good job but don't really want to risk the leaflets being dumped.

Local newsagents, if the owner won't put a leaflet with every paper ask the paper boy/girl

There are firms that do this usually. Google it or Facebook it.

When you catch one coming through your door run out to ask them. Sometimes it's the family of the restaurant owner or whatever but the other times it'll be a firm that do it and post a few at a time.

Expect a 1% enquiry rate.
Then 10% of those to book.

So a very low return naturally. But you can stick in some offers and referral schemes and things and bump that right up over a 12 month campaign. Keep working on the areas that worked last etc.

It's a whole business of its own that lark is. Done well it can fund a huge family. Hence travellers doing it.
