Andy listen to fed man he knows a thing or two about marketing, i would give the same advice use what is technically called a five point landing knock eather side of the ones you clean and the 3 doors opposit, or you could take out some expensive advertising in local papers and have some leaflets printed this is expensive though, but if you want a cheap way to print leaflets LISTEN UP!!!!! in the early days one of my companies that is a publishing company by the way, we used to use MS word and place four to six text boxes onto a single page, then we would place our text, logos artwork and anything else we wanted to say in the boxes, NOW print the page (this is your master copy) and take it to office world where you can get 1000 copies done for £23.50 inc VAT so now you have 1000 A4 pages with four flyers printed on them, NEXT either Buy a small guillotine again from Office world or cut them with scissors (The scisors method makes ya hand ache though i am sure some of you fellers know the feeling well lol) now you have 4000 small flyers to post in letter boxes BUT through my years of experience with various projects I have only ever seen a response rate from flyers of no more than 1-3% this seems to be a universal response, so i would not go that route.....if i were you, however you will have a much better response if you use flyers as an introduction to your company and then follow up with knocking on those doors and asking weather they got the flyer and would they be interested in using your window cleaning services....hope this helps you M8,
NOW FOR THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN SLATING ME, HOW MUCH IS THAT LITTLE PIECE OF INFORMATION WORTH TO YOU? IF YOU USE LEAFLETS DAILY? ITS ALL IN A CERTAIN PUBLICATION I COULD MENTION BUT WONT, I HAVE RECIEVED AN E-MAIL TONIGHT WHERE THE SENDER WAS ACCUSING ME OF STEALING INFORMATION FROM YOU GUYS IN THIS FORUM, YOU WILL NEVER SEE A PRODUCT OF MINE OR SERVICE WE OFFER RIPPED FROM ANYONE ON HERE OR ANYWHERE ELSE FOR THAT MATTER (just for the record) The sender of that email has had his Name his IP address and a copy of the slanderous E-Mail Recorded, his Internet Service Providers (ISP) will be hearing from my Legal Team, in the not very distant future in pursuit of his static address which he claims is on the Spanish mainland, it could be outta Mongolia, he will be found, he best start saving his Euros up, He really shouldn’t have said that, anyway on a lighter note.....lol......I HOPE THE ABOVE INFORMATION HELPS THE NEW GUYS AND PUTS SOME MYTHS TO SLEEP...........PS forgive any spelling mistakes its been a bloody long but prosperous day :-/
