Title: Folk working shift and door knocking.
Post by: richard jagger on April 14, 2012, 12:11:30 pm

I have been out lately door knocking and stumble across a few shift working folk sleeping the day. Feel quite bad at getting out of bed. I decided to to make up for this bad business practice.I made a door hangers with my business name on saying" I am a shift working and sleep during the days Please don`t knock. If you leave a leaflet or note, I will read it later.Thank you." If I awaken any of these people I will give them a door hanger.Which is a good will gesture and good advert for me.

Surely thats a bit like locking the stable door after the horse has bolted?

No is good P R. And when you knock on a door you do not know they are sleeping. It has got me business already.It did impress the few I have found.IT IS BETTER THAN WALKING AWAY WITH EAR FULL.

i think its a good jesture and maybe good for promotion, but i wouldnt leave one on my door as it also tells everyone who sees it that you are out at night and the house will probably be empty,

Good Idea

Where did you get your door hangers made up? I have seen them used in the good ol' US of A! alternative to leaflets and far more noticeable!

Well Done!

I printed on my printer and laminated them as you only need a few.I make two out of a A 4 page made a template from a hotel one some time ago.It is a effort but good for business and it does make the victim smile.
