Yes it can bring in some work, but i have found it all depends on what type of advert it is ie what wording you have on it, does it stand out. Also the work can be spread out over a lrg area, but i have found overtime you pick more up in them areas.

Good luck

Ive just renewed a local post office advert for the following year.

Ive got seven days of work in the village and I gets lots of work, more and more every time I go.

The 26 quid its cost me is worth every penny as a point of contact that the whole village knows.

I get more work from this than from anything else

I suggest that if you live in a city then go for a really local (e.g free community) paper for a particular suburb, village or small town.

Cards in Post offices or local shops work too.
