big leaflet campaign results
« on: July 09, 2014, 07:50:01 pm »
I had 50k leaflets delivered today and I would be very happy to get 0.03% or 150 customers. Got 15 new custys today. How many calls/custies should I expect in what time frame in your experience.

50k delivered in 1 day?  :o Jeez.

What was the cost of that?  Also were they delivered solus or grouped?

£3.5k are you mad. Easier buying a round for that. £3.5k would be about £1500 a month x 12, £18k a year.
15 seconds per leaflet. It would have to be terraced houses, all in a line. All 50 thousand of them. I would check they delivered where they said if I was you.
Sorry, its not £3.5k it s£4.2 inc printing. Tell us your joking

Not that I cover Surrey, nor got any slots available,, but a canvasser like me would have got 2.1k per month, second clean guaranteed on that cost. Would have taken 4 weeks in your chosen area.

He lives in Middlesbrough. A terraced house cost £15k, a pint can be had for less than £1.50. It's like Salford, but a lot cheaper.

Rogue, I pay £260 for 5,000 printed and delivered to areas of my choice.
They are sent out with other leaflets not solus.
I consistently achieve 4 enquiries per 1,000, so from your 50,000 I would be looking at around 200 enquiries.
The last 10,000 I did were sent out over a period of a month.
"Thank you for calling: if you have a 1st floor flat, mid terraced house, lots of dogs, no parking, no side access, or no sense of humour, please press hold!
For all other enquiries, please press1"

Also, I probably get over half the enquiries in the first week but then can take up to 2 months or more.

Last time I tried delivering leaflets myself i struggled to hit 100 per hour,.. I was avoiding terraced houses, but that was on estates of normal 3 & 4 bed semis.
4 a minute seems VERY optimistic unless half of them are delivered into the local river,..

I agree about buying a round but it's not as simple as that.

I have placed bookings on hold for the last few months, as it's been my experience that some bookings taken many months in advance have been cancelled through change of mind or circumstances.

I'm currently booked through until October with my regulars.
Where am I knocking today?
