I would go with a small company, they are usually more reliable than bigger ones that hire temps.
I use a husband and wife team at £25 per 1000 leaflets.

Thats not sole delivery though - they are delivered alongside 4 or 5 other leaflets.
You would pay around £65 per 1000 for them to be delivered on there own.

The company I use keep me updated with emails with details of the roads/ areas that have been delivered to. You can then do your own checks if you want to -or just wait till the phones rings with new customers! ;)

I used to do that, they are usually good for about 2 weeks and then stop, however they still like to claim that they put them out.

Not saying all are like that,....


just the 23 we have employed in the last 12 months.....

1% always seems to be quoted as a decent return and that's what Craig's had.  My first decent drop was 10,000 which were delivered with a local paper to a targeted area.  Initial response was muted to say the least but I still had calls upto twelve months later from people who had kept the leaflet.  My easiest job from one of my own leaflet jobs was when I pulled up in a cul-de-sac and a lady came over to me and asked for a quote and then her neighbour also asked for a quote.  I'd picked up nearly £300.00 of work without getting a leaflet out!

Delivered another 500 over past few days - finding it hard to keep the pace up as well as work though  :-\ Anyway our local newspaper will deliver 10k at £23+VAT per 1k. Seems a good deal compared to other avenues but we are undecided as it will obviously be junk in some peoples eyes immediately as in a free paper with menus / supermarket leaflets. Cant see us delivering 10k by hand though oursleves?

I have just delivered 400 this morning , but I dont think I will get one call as the local curry house , estate agent , builder had all delivered flyers before me ! ( what time do these people start) I think they will all be thrown into the bin tonight . :'(

I would never pay for a solus delivery , what would be the point , as you dont know waht is going to be delivered to the house before or after yours !

nothing in the diary this week, so I will have to try again  tomorrow in a different area.
This is the season for fine wine, and drunken friends, enjoy this moment, for this moment is your life.
