I am thinking about hitting it hard this spring with some door hangers and I would like to get some opinions positive or negative.
I have never done any hangers. Do they seem to work well? Anyone think it is kind of a waste of time? I know its not the 1,000’s that others are able to do but I would to do about 500 in some choice neighborhoods in my target areas. I would be pretty satisfied with a 2-3% return.
Don’t think about. [COLOR=“black”][B]Just do it!!![/B][/COLOR] Door hangers work as well as flyers or direct mail as far as my experience. Go for it.
Yeah door hangers work really well, I usually put out 500 myself when I have a day I’m not doing something else and get fairly good results from them.
There is a company you can use that have the peel off back version so you just stick them on the door or glass.
I have had a lot of luck using 6x9 post cards. I punch a hole in one corner insert a rubber band and have a door hanger or a mailer. One thing I like is it doesnt look so cramped up like a traditional door hanger plus I can use them for newspaper inserts, fliers, etc. I like them better than direct mailing. I am getting ready to out out 10,000 as soon as they get back from the printer.
I’ll be trying to get out 5000 doorhangers myself starting mid March.
Others will ask why so many any why not mail them?
Because I do a great amount of sales just conversing with people I meet on the street.
Doorhangers are SO worth it!
Ive done doorhangers with great results. I did postcards last year, but didnt mail, we passed them out in doorhanger plastic bags. Great results again. Its not all about getting a ton of callbacks but getting a nice return on your investment. One callback i got last spring was a $1400.00 job, with, at that time, about $100.00 invested in postcards.
I like the post card and hole punch idea.
Me too… plus post cards are about 1/2 the cost of door hangers but it seems like a tedious job punching holes and inserting a rubber band in each piece??
something you could do watching a few movies over the weekend. or a paperclip or staple holding the rubber band
We do them every year and use simple postcard size flyers that we print ourselves. 800 got us 18 calls and 11 of those jobs sold, all put out in a nice area with single story houses where our ladders never even came off the truck, except for my employee Jessica who needs a four footer on most single story even lol. 5000 worth of jobs off of 45.00 bucks worth of self print flyers, used wfp on exterior of all houses so lightning fast too
Most print shops have a type of drill press to do the holes. We put holes in 1000 postcards in about 5 minutes.
Oh that is pretty cool, I didn’t realize that. I buy my post cards from gotprint.com because they are so dang cheap, like 2.5 cents each or something like that. So I have never used a local print shop but maybe I will go pop in to one someday and see if they price match cause I would like to try that out.
That’s not bad. I’m paying 500.00 for 6x9 double sides color post cards but he’ll drill all or part however I need them
I am going to do a huge doorhanger push this spring. I am targeting specific style of homes, and my doorhangers have the prices listed right on them.
I ordered 2500 doorhangers this fall, and didn’t have time to put them out - I only managed to get out like 10 or 12 and I think we got 1 or 2 jobs just from those.
I like door hangers. They work no better or worse than anything
else.
Most focus on ‘do door hangers work?’ when what we should
be asking is ‘are people going to read and respond to this?’
A bad ad is a bad ad. Very seldom is the delivery method the
culprit.
