yesterday 1 of the phone calls was for a rather large contract for OAP homes they do, have you mentioned your flash pole in your Yell advert  that might be putting them off

90% of people from Yell only want 1 off`s or expect a cheap quote in my experience.

I've picked up 5 jobs worth £3k per year from yell.com advert.
The 1st job i got was £175 per month and i got the call within hours of my free advert going live last july.
I do get some mail through the door from the advert and had a couple of cold calls but this freebie has been very good for me so far.

I had one yesterday.  It was a debt recovery service asking if I had any trouble collecting bad debts.  My answer was "Not as much trouble as I get receiving unsolicited telesales calls"  Cheeky mare told me to register with the telephoner preference service (TPS).  She put the phone down on me before I could tell her that all my niumbers are so registered but unethical companies like hers ignore it.  Still, what do you expect from a debt collector anyway?
