new leaflets for pressure cleaning, and window cleaning
« on: January 16, 2013, 12:22:46 pm »
just had 10.000 fully re-designed and added my new pressure cleaning service, obviously with the weather been as bad as it is, now is probley not a good time to leaflet? when do you think i should be out their dropping the leaflets.
at the moment i am just using the standard lance for cleaning, would it be worth while me buying the FSC as i have heard mixed reports?.
also how do i know wich turbo nozzle will fit wich pressure washer, i currently have a honda gcv 160, 2.3 gallons per minute wich seemed to do the job last year but would make it easier with a turbo nozzle.
thanks adam

If your running at about 200 bar @ 10.3 ltrs/min then you'll need a 035. Forget a fsc with that machine and just buy yourself a turbo. You could just read the size from your existing nozzle

re leaflets:  Doesn't really matter when you deliver them,chances are they might remember you if its snowing.they'll still only ring you spring summer and most will get binned instantly.Give good thought to your leaflet, unless your good buddy owns a printing business .Offer a deal.How much 10000 cost these days anyway.
Craig Slight from nice-n-white will help you out,if not, know a man who can.

Go on ebay, find the cheapest flyer printers, usually about 62 quid for 5000 A5 double sided gloss colour, then look on ebay again for leaflet design, usually about 10 each side by some whizzkid designer doing leaflets instead of homework or bedroom warrior.  he emails you the design, you forward it on to your printer... jobs a good en..

Evening lee

Are you keeping busy?

I've just remembered I have had them done on 170gram paper, quite thick so I expected to pay more. They are like a thin card.

hi Rob, I'm quite busy at the minute yes, doing ok, hows you mate? to be honest you have a good price there, with the bonus of getting it all from one place, no messing around, mine are only 130gsm and I can be a tight t@@t at times so don't mind the messing about. mine are about the same thickness as a rizla paper  haha  ;D

Someone posted details for a design guy on here. I emailed him and he designed me a fantastic flyer colour both sides for £24.99. If anyone wants his email let me know.
I ordered 30,000 a few week back for £99.00 of flyer zone and delivered 300+ last Wednesday because I had the afternoon off, i've hired someone to do it now!!

Lol, we were discussing differences in prices relate to the thickness of the flyer, robs were like cardboard at £200, I said mine were like rizla papers at £140, so yours must bge transparent at £99, just a joke mate  ;D

Yea that one went way over my head. They are 150g, good quality. Check out flyer zone regular they always have offers on and it's a great service and quick delivery. From what I've read anyway the quality of leaflet matters a lot less than the content. Mike Halliday and Allan Simmons off the carpet cleaning forum have success with leaflets but they put out 1000's on a regular basis to the same area.
I did 300 + to an upmarket area last week, large 4/5 bed houses with big gardens and drives, I'm planning on hitting this area with the same leaflet every four week until the end of summer to see if I get a response.
Rob are your flyers for commercial or domestic?

This one is a commercial leaflet. It will have a business card stapled to the corner.
