Leaflet drops are they any good?

Question

Have you every used a trade person/business from a leaflet dropped through your door, if not what do you do with the leaflet.

Answer 1

I'm fed up with these so not only do I not take any notice of them, I re-cycle them

Answer 2

yes. they can bring in lots of leads.

use postcards, people are more likely to read a postcard than a flimsy leaflet.

Answer 3

I work on the philosophy of: if I really need something, then I will go and find it . . . leaflet drops to most people are a nuisance and we now have a local law which prevents them but it is still abused. When I hear somebody drop a leaflet through my door, especially as it has a polite notice saying not to, I ram it down the dropper's throat  . . . they are usually foreign and can't read is the general answer.

Answer 4

A lot of them I put out for recycling.

Answer 5

They are a cheap method of advertising and apparently the average response is around 1%; so make your materials as eyecatching as possible.

Perosnally, I bin anything with just a mobile number as this can be a gipsy/traveller.

Otherwise, if I think it may be a useful service I hang onto it.

Answer 6

personally i file them all

Answer 7

Yes, but they were only for takeaways.  We don't get all that many leaflets, mainly just takeaway menus.

Answer 8

Never,, all junk goes in the bin without looking,
