the other thing that I notice is that from leaflets we get loads more extras. Everything we do is advertised in our leaflet and we get way more extras than from canvassed customers.I find that the cost of canvassing is about the same as leafleting. the only real advantage i see with canvassing is they will be more compact and you have more control over the areas you gain customers.
I had 20,000 leaflets delivered last monday.I have ditched my canvassers as the quality of the customer is quite poor compared to one that chooses to come to us.i do have 30k printed each time. I give my window cleaners 150 a day each to deliver while there out on top of existing jobs. They do about 10k a month like that.Im hoping to step it up next year by doing 30k a month every month from march. We are also still going to do the exhibiton stand in shopping centres and garden centres around the area.
