Title: leaflet delivery
Post by: nick p on November 20, 2007, 04:18:28 pm
Hi

For those of you that have employed your own leaflet delivery guys
how much do you pay them do you pay by hour or amount they do
at the moment i am paying £6 per hour for 10 hours a week which gets me about 1200 delivered.

cheers nick

I use a guy around the corner who delivers for a company and has a team of delivery guys. Known him for years so does me a good deal.

Nick, surely 1200 over 10 hrs isn't so good?  I know different areas take longer but you should be looking at 300 per hour (terraced not many gates) or 100 per hr (detached with paths)

the going rate round our way is about £40 per 1000.

steve, skywalker, deep clean - presumably yours go out with several other leaflets or a publication of some sort??

Yes as I said mine goes out with a few others.

As my leaflet is only one sided I am looking for someone to take up the reverse side thus halving my costs. Ideally id have liked another cleaning firm of some sort but a woman i know is interested in taking up the reverse side for her beautician business. If she does then it will only cost me £165 to have 20,000 leaflets printed up and delivered!

Is my logic off?

If you have someone elses ad on the 'back' it's the toss of a coin as to whether yours gets read, because it's bad enough trying to get people to read one side.

At least you would have a fighting chance if you printed testimonials on the back or another service YOU provide.

False economy having your leaflet delivered with 3 or others .Pay a little extra and have it delivered with one more maximum.
