The Power of Print Advertising
As much as people like to say that flyer marketing does not work - it has worked absolutely great for my business over the years. It has brought in the loyalist highest paying customers of all marketing. I've always done it myself with two helpers but it takes a lot of time and is exhausting work. I would distribute a nice postcard type flyer in affluent areas and would always get a payback.

About two months ago, I was having a coffee in my car and a van past me which said "Flyer Marketing" great I thought. I will give these guys a try. On their website, they had the whole city divided into about 20 zones and looked very professional.
The Result
They wanted $400 upfront and it cost another $400 for the printing. About 10 days later, I got an email to my complete astonishment with a "report" saying "distribution complete". I just got one phone call. Normally for 1000 I get at least 3-4. But this was 10000 flyers and one lousy call. No spikes seen on website either. I'm sure they were put in the bin.
With over 10 years in business, I've never really got burnt by a supplier but feel really conned by this firm.
