Someone on another forum has just done 20k and got 31 jobs.

I think it depends on area's and other wc working where u drop.

I get calls months after dropping leaflets, but I bet that 31 customers gets him more than that over the next few months through recommendations and just being seen working an area. It is just a method and not the be all of advertising

100 and i will be delighted!
The plaqn is i think is to have them delivered on a daily basis and then the canvassers knock about 2 days behind to see what sort of pick up i can get then!
 So perhaps 200 or 250 from thr first 10000,that would be great!

Over the years I would say about 1% but its variable as said before. For a different business we did a leaflet drop inside the local freebie paper and it was a total waste of time.

I haven't delivered a leaflet for about three years now but still got a few calls this summer.

I did a 5k drop and got ONE call,  :o

Learned a lesson from that. NEVER allow a glossy magazine distibuter deliver your leaflets.
I guess they stuck them inside, and the few folk who did open the mag before chucking it in the bin just chucked the leaflet first. (then the mag)

My first one was 0.44%.

My second one was 0.43%.

My third one (hitting exactly the same area as the second one - my mistake!) is 0.16% and slowly rising...

My fourth one goes out next week, so I'll let you know.

it is a bit low but once you do those 31 jobs you will prob pick up another 30 when working in and around that area ..

of course another 5 wc are prob doing the same thing so some areas just wont work well - can end up with scattered work and it can be a pain but again the other wc may think the same and dump some work as its too scattered for them.

Just come and buy some of my excess work. You only pay for what you get and all work is at least £40 an hour and most established for at least 5 years.


Cant critiscise that.

ill second that ...

i find it funny when you start a new area/road ... say for example you do number 4 and the bloke across the road at number 12 stairs at you every month for about 3/4 cleans then finally comes over for a price ... get this alot - see them watching and you say hello/morning and they just stair for a while at first - guess they are just sounding you out i suppose
