Does anyone actually get much in the way of feedback from their customers with regard to their own flyers.
I have to say (not trying to brag here) that I have lost count of the amount of comments that I have had. I received a nice comment via email just yesterday.
Here is some of what this nice lady had to say,- Have just picked your flyer up off the mat. ( I live in St Annes Gardens,
Woolston).
Just wanted to tell you that I am impressed. I used to work in publicity
and am one of those people who can't stand the dreadful spelling and
incorrect use of apostrophes that we see in most flyers and shop notices
etc. Your flyer was so good and very eye-catching too.
I don't need any cleaning at the moment but I'll certainly keep your flyer
handy for future reference.
Although I never got the job in this case, she certainly helped by giving me all kinds of other usefull advice.
I did notice that like me Jacko has the same level of response rates and also prints out and delivers his own. At the moment I produce a semi-colour double sided A4 size leaflet: Carpet/Upholstery & Patio cleaning on one side and Car valeting and blitz cleaning on the other side. I use power words together with eye catching coulour graphics including the line: EXCELLENT testimonials and references can be provided if required.
The majority of the work I get is for carpets and upholstery.
Can it be that self produced and delivered semi colour flyers pull better than smaller one colour printing trade company flyers.
Just a thought. I'm sure many of you have tried both types, what are your thoughts, I am still fairly new to this business and no doubt have other forms of advertising to try.
Nigel.
