Had a carpet cleaning leaflet through door this week. Seems an odd time to put them out this being run up to xmas. Or am i missing something here?

We have put out 1800 in the past month and booked 7 jobs from them.

Great time of year to be putting leaflets out!

Newbi's maybe? I started my business in a november, so i was leafleting right through the winter

I'm fully booked for just over a week, but I've just arranged for 2000 to go out next week.
Quiet times might be round the next corner, and make hay while the sun shines and all that

Leaflets need to go out continuously to the same people if you are going to maximise your return.

[Russell Wright]

The best companies at marketing are those that use factors such as environmental, political, seasonal etc to their advantage. Christmas is an ideal time to capture that group of people who only have their carpets cleaned ready for the festive season. Good on you I say.

[Linds Russell]

I choose to hammer it whilst we are already busy. I want people in my area to have the choice of me, me or me!

Leafleting in December is a great idea!

Clean ability, was it a half price offer leaflet, full colour A4 ?  Think I have had one too, a few weeks ago.

[AshWhite]

My 2000 went out last week, already taken 1 booking for £120 - paid for leaflets & distribution, jobs a good 'un!

On a related side note, I've taken 3 bookings in the last 2 weeks from a leaflet drop I did in June/July!

Great topic !

So which flyers are giving success then.

The glossy proffesional ones? or your own typed ones ?

For me, the ones from June/July were glossy A4 ones from Vistaprint, and the more recent ones were A5 postcards from Stressfreeprint.co.uk both of which I desgined myself.
