Welcome back Mike, did you win anything in Vegas?

My brother just got some leaflets done using digital printing from a company with outlets across the uk i believe. He was going to use tradeprint following my advice but got caught up in their recent staff dispute so jumped ship and from what ive seen they are fantastic and cheaper. hes on here as Ben (elite cleaning services) if you want to get more details. ( I cant remember the printers name)

Jason
I like the idea of your flyer. What sort of results have you achieved with it. Have you compared the results of your 'type' of advert to the more education based marketing ideas of Alltec and the like.
thanks
Mark

ITS BASED MORE ON SELLING THE SIZZLE rather than the steak, previous similar ads have given great results,,,, have you seen the latest persil ads, no washing machines, no powder , just dirty clothes and good times
-
It can be dangerous to start getting too clever with leaflets and start making comparrisons with FMCG. The aim of the Persil Ad is not to make you wash your clothes ( we already buy washing powder) but to change brand.
A leaflets role is to get the reader to have there carpets cleaned not change carpet cleaners.of course you should sell the sizzle (benefits) of clean carpets, but pretty picture won't acheive this.
I bet Cleaning Co leaflet is a fifth of the cost of Jasons and will bring in more work ( although at a lower average price per job)
I've seen britains best leaflets, 1 has been constanly reordered at 100,000 a time for the last 5 years with very little changes and used used by a national company, the other is used by a single operator & ordered at 20,000 a time over the last 3 years with no changes. both are single colour on white.

£96 per 10000 ,cheap as chips like my prices lol been using these for nearly 10 years and can hon say would not had survied with out them

Britains most succesful leaflets................. surely they would be the ones coming from beverley, the company recently was sold for £18 million........... not those ones printed at tradeprint.
-
Sorry jason I can't see the logic in you statement, why does chemdry being sold for £18m bear any relevence on how successful a leaflet is?
Have you seen a leaflet suplied by Chemdry ( obviously, you had a C/D franchise) they are crap, being the worlds favourite airline..oops I mean carpet cleaners does'nt make them an expert on leaflets.
Tradeprint print 100,000 leaflets a month for this company, if you know of a company who deliver more than this then sorry I'm wrong.
I use the amount delivered as an indication of success because the way i see it, only a fool would spend money on this amount of leaflets, if they did'nt bring in the work.
Mike
Ps Chemdry do use Tradeprint
-
Well 600 franchises average 5000 only per month in leaflets = a lot more than 100000, plus 18 million = a lot of success behind a brand, those guys know how to buils a cc brand, the proof is they did it .........made a great profit ........heavens best , have over 1000 outlets...thats success too in my book
-
you mean every chemdry deliver 5k a month, then why do the 4 local to me not deliver any, are the only ones of the 600, seems a coincidence.
when i refer to 'success' I'm talking about the the success of the leaflets to bring in a responce, not how successful the company is, no one would argue that Both Chemdry & Heavens best are successfull companies.

hi, never ever seen chemdry leaflet and there must be 6 local to me

Hi Guys
Its all in the name "ChemDry"
What is the second most asked question after price? "How quick will it dry" This has great power and saying it in your name has greater power. you are giving the answer to the question before its asked and reminding prospects that it is the number one bad experance that prospects that have gone for cheap price and had a bad experance.
This and the fact that franchises are forced to promote brand awearness. If a franchise fails its sold again and the brand building carries on, if an one of us fails, who give's a !!!!?
What we must do is have our offer (not Name) if front of a prospect when they have a use for our services. This is where leaflets help us, by doing this and comitting to dropping to a area that you can offord to do on a regular basis.
What you must do is become the big fish in your pond (town) and not try and match Chemdry.
On the subject of size etc I go for 1/3 a4 light card and change the colour and offer of the card each month. these can be used for your 5 arounds all you need to do is write the address on the other side and also can be used for any mail outs to old customers.
