[smitch6]

i'm looking for someone to print some flyers A5
full colour on glossy paper

can anyone help or recommend anyone
my last experience on ebay i received my business cards and they went straight in the bin lol

I'd have a good think about leaflets as you only tend to get around a 2% interest from them.

its basically to leave places and hand out when i do a car boot etc
they give more info that a business card so thought they would be handy

Do you need them designing as well mate?

[jennywren]

I would recommend Solopress, they are very reasonable and quick, I have found leaflets have brought in a reasonable amount of trade

[smitch6]

an idea i had was to have something like this at the top to match my website and business cards etc
and then the rest of the flyer in white with info and pics etc on there

Leaflets - coming to a landfill site near you soon.


Less than five percent are ever read, response rates are less than two percent, typically nearer the half a percent rate. You have to do the maths and evaluate whether you have anough profit in a product to be able to print up to two hundred leaflets to finance it.

Leaflets are best suited to high profit margin outfits like home improvements, or a launch of local event or premise launch. Others seldom get a return on their investment.

I suppose this would be a viable answer if printing was as expensive as many years ago - where as now, you can get 5,000 leaflets printed (double sided glossy a5) for about £75!

So, even if those 5,000 leaflets bring in 10 new customers who will spend £10 you're onto a winner as you'll have broken even and have new word or mouth!

We have had 'many' leaflets printed - all with a good outcome ....................... we know where to send them (area's wise) and when (weather wise) and it's ALWAYS worked for us!

Absolutely fab and cheap as chips. I use them for all my stuff and they've never let me down.

It's more the fact of the vagueness of how the thread starter was planning to implement them "its basically to leave places and hand out when i do a car boot etc they give more info that a business card so thought they would be handy".

Most car boot traders can only sell used items. Those selling new items can be removed by the organiser, trading standards, or someone from the local authority. Most car boot sales sell cheap tat and the typical client base at those venues are probably not into paying premium prices for personalised goods. To 'leave leaflets at places' usually means needing the permission of the person managing that space, which rules out libraries etc as you are promoting a commercial venture.

To maximise on leaflets you need to be more targeted and aim for the groups that are more likely to buy your product. Usually that means cold calling on people, explaining your service and leaving the leaflet as a sales tool. If you are planning on being at events, go for more upmarket events like craft fairs and county shows where people are more used to paying realistic prices.
