Title: 2k leaflet drop would you expect?
Post by: Crystal-clear on August 14, 2012, 07:40:51 pm: well i had a 2k leaflet drop done all in semi detached and terrace houses

so i have dropped in the past but im going to be hopefully trying this out a bit more seriously now im just hoping to see the response i was hoping for about half a percent?

i have had 1x clean so far £50 one off, thats all.. so not great so far its been 3 days so i guess thats not too bad too..

half a percent would be 10 calls that would be amazing.

what amount would you be happy with if you droped 2000 ive made a poll above
and if you would expect anything more then 10 calls/cleans i would love to know!
also if you think 2000 is too small to expect anything also would like to know that in which case what would be the minium that you would do in order to test an area so to speak.

yea id be happy with that so you are saying about 0.03% and would you expect that within the first 2 weeks?

also do you think 2000 is enof to talk about pertentages or would i need to do more like 10,000?

so based on what you are saying im well off the target

I have put out 15,000 in the last 3-4 weeks and 5000 are going out the end of the week, but you can not see if its going well till the end of the 3rd week. if 3 weeks in you have had 20 jobs your doing well ;)

Post by: james peters on August 14, 2012, 11:03:45 pm: I put 50 calls 25 cleans....
the reason I have put this is because you may still get calls 2 years on ....
of course it depends on the leaflet......
my leaflets are home made , but specifically taylored to the houses I target....
good luck to you...the more you put out the more you get ;D
