No prices but 10% discount on production of leaflet. I live in an area where local company means a lot so I have stressed that and give a local telephone number which my people seem to like better than 0800 number. I'm getting through the leaflets at about 200 a week and getting at least 1 or 2 jobs fairly quickly afterwards.  Even been asked if they can keep the leaflet and pass it to a family member, so I give them a few more.

At £55 a thousand id employ someone part time to do it solus.

i agree with Mark. get on gumtree and employ 4 people to work 3hrs on a saturday & the same on a sunday, pick them up at a central point and drive them to an area away from home, then drop them off with a googleMap print-out of the area they are to do , pick them up 3hrs later. tell them you will call at 5 random houses on their map area that evening to check delivery

promise them a job and pay rise after the second weekend if they do a good job.... but sack them and get 4 more..... but illegal immigrant are the best to exploit, you can find them by going into the ghettos and asking in cafes.

drop them off in large villages or housing estates

Just scanning through, have some people miss understood? not £55 per 1k delivery.

Forget delivery.

It was £55 in outlay to get one job using RM. thats print and delivery, with an average response.

In other words you are buying each job for £55

hence a 55 min order is not going to work.

[Craigp]

PS I think it would be more now, with rising costs.

more like 65

Not very ethical Mike, i hope your joking.

[JandS]

Not very ethical being an illegal immigrant but they
do it.

[AshWhite]

Bloody hell Mike, where do you live - Detroit?

[Carpet Dawg]

I like Mikes style  He pays them anyway, so its not too bad.

I retract my comment from before, did a search on google for local solus delevery of flyers. Cheapest was £75 per 1000. Empolying your own would be the best bet.

I dont do flyers, tried it once years ago and hated it Typically though, how long would it take someone fit to deliver 1000 leaflets? I know it depends on the type of area and house but on average? Lets say a new estate.

Thanks

I can usually stuff through 150 to 200 an hour so 1000 would take a day. Maybe I'm slow but I make sure they are well pushed through and not torn. Now also pushing a business card through which is smaller for customers to keep.

i can do 1000 in around 8 hours, thats semi detached (2 car length drive way) estate. my mate can do a 1000 in 5 hours, but thats jogging and planning your journey from start to finish so your not back tracking.

[derek west]

Heres one he did earlier.

[AshWhite]

I can see Happy Mondays house from here.

[derek west]

if you zoom in you can see him shakin a leaflet in the air shouting "HOW VERY DARE YOU" 

[Robert Watson]

Lol

[Carpet Dawg]

Thanks Derek and Ken.

So about a day then for a 1000
