Pink Flyer is a leaflet that comes along with the Fast Track Marketing System run by Alltec.

Sorry Andy,

No offence intended. Its just that to us old heads its a well worn path. Its like asking whats the best cleaning chemical etc etc.

If you wait until everyone comes in from work this evening and logs on to the question you will get loads of conflicting messages.

Basicly Andy its a marketing tool that will cost you about 3k to get off the ground and then you take it on as far and as much as you want.

There is a guy on here called 'Red Carpet' click onto his messages and you will see how he has been doing, he has just started it. Others do well others not so well.

Have fun.

Hi Murky

No offence taken and thanks for the extended explanation.
I have just been on the phone to Steve at Alltec about the Fastrack and he is sending me some information about it... sounds intersting.

Hope to speak again.

Hi Ian

I spent £3000 on yp plus yell etc and have made £5000 (Total, not taking into account expenses etc)

With leaflets I spend £189 on 20,000 and on average I make between £2,500 and £3,500 (Without recommendations etc)

YP was nowhere near as good as I was led to believe it would be by the reps etc.

Regards

Ollie

Hi Ollie,

Looks like you are making  correct decision


Pink Flyer used to be a secret in fact   you could be shot if you said too much. or at least banned from Alltec mail shots


If you use search button you will find loads of information  and talk about it.

Sorry to ask, but why is it pink? Is there some psychology behind it?

Also if each FastTracker sends out 10,000 a month how can you keep it a secret?

Its ment to be A3 size which gives it authority a bit like the Finnancial Times

I do not know how Many Fadtrackers there have been but there must be millions out there

Same as evey Yellow Page Advert has a WARNING  line

Paul,

I thought the pink flyer was supposed to be the Holy Grail of tested response, every word, every sentence everything about it geared to response, only to get 1:500 at best? Surely that can't be the norm.

As i said before my old design leaflet was bringing in atleast 1-2 jobs per 1000 and it was cxxp. It's no wonder the pink leaflet has the same response thats if it is the same one that came through a family members door it was so cheesy and very overboard in my opinion - too much.

So Matt, what's the answer, be less 'American' and keep the same priciples or go down another route?

The principal of the Pink Flyer is great, just lose the american rubbish and replace it with (The Times) speak.

THis is what works for me.

Its possibly the best marketing leaflet in the World you might need to sign up with one of the marketing companies or be careful about infringing copyright laws as well as your own integrity which is far more important if you used it as a template my thoughts are that a reasonable leaflet will work to varying degrees as lomg as you get enough out there simon
