Postcards VS Fliers

What do you find more effective in your area, passing out fliers or mailing postcards?

What methods of fliering and mailing do you find generates more calls?

I think definitely post cards. I haven’t done fliers in a long while, but I do remember post cards doing much better once I switched over.

How many fliers could you pass out in a day? How many postcards could you mail out in a day?

Fliers for me, but I do not need to pass them out and I could do 20,000 a week sittiing at home. The investment is far less and the results are even if not better. (I get a far better response from fliers)

Most do not have a resource for getting their fliers distributed in such a way. I would say postcards if I had to deliver the fliers myself or there was not a good place to put the fliers (like throwing them in the driveway).

I have better results going the postoffice v.s. having the parcels passed out as flyers.

I have yet to try postcards, but door hangers have been pretty successful for me…
When I did them myself, I could get out around 100/hour without too much effort. Now I pay a couple kids around here to do it @ $.09/hanger

I have never done postcards,(have been thinking about though) always flyers or doorhangers. When I finish up a house in a neighborhood we will pass out several flyers to as many neighbors as possible, hoping that theyve seen our van and us cleaning their neighbor’s windows. The best thing for us is if they ask their neighbor about our service. If we’ve done a good job, we’ve got a new customer…

I do business cards double sided and go door to door, If I dont feel like doing door to door I pitch them in the drive way and since they are double sided they always land up right.
