I was thinking of delivering some leaflets on the way home tonight, only 20 or 30 but couldn't be bothered.

when I got home I had 3 calls on the ansaphone, all them on the lines of......" you were thinking of putting a leaflet through my door this afternoon, I thought I'd save you the bother and call you anyhow"

just show how great leaflets are!!

YOU JUST HAVE TO THINK ABOUT PUTTING THEM OUT........ AND THEY BRING IN WORK!! ;D ;D

 I going to think about doing it again all day tomorrow, should bring in loads of work

Someone told me when I was a lad that what you dwell on becomes a reality.

Anyway kate bush and Blondie are looking a bit rough these days so I don't want it to become a reality now. ;D

Incidentally, I've heard it call "iceberg syndrome". If you get a new car and are terrified of scratching it, then if that's what you worry about unduly that is exactly what will happen.

Not tried leaflets yet but I do post business cards periodically in areas I'm working in, usually 80 to 100 at a go and every time I've done it I've had 1 call and sometimes 2 from them.
Also had calls a couple of months down the line from people who've put them to 1 side for later.
I know what I do with leaflets, I don't even look at them most of the time just bin them.
Another thing I've started doing is giving customers a fridge magnet of my business cards so the future will reveal how effective these are.
I think that's a COOL idea!!!!!!!!!!!

The nearest I get to Hot Gossip these days is the Mrs telling me about Mandy the receptionist and her expanding waistline since the office party. ;)
