Hi all,

I work for a home improvement company (CentralScotlandJoinery.co.uk) and also have a few private clients that I assist in Edinburgh (HelenDeans.co.uk , StereoNightclub.co.uk and others!).

We were thinking about a leaflet drop purely to reinforce our company image but it seems an expensive option when most leaflets are discarded as junk.

However, I imagine that if you dropped a booklet through a door people would probably have a flick through (think toilet time!).

So, I was thinking that we could split the cost of the drop by producing a booklet and everyone paying a percentage of the total production.

Say 10,000 flyers cost you £300 and distribution costs £50 per 1000.

£300 + £500 = £900.

10,000 booklets cost £487 and distribution costs the same.

£487 + £500 = £987

The difference is £87 for between 1 company or 10 advertising.

If you'd be keen to get on board I've be looking at £100 per company and I could do the artwork. We'd be using an independant distributor to have them placed around Edinburgh and if you have a particular area we can split distribution between what everyone chooses.

Drop me an e-mail (khalid [at] khalid [dot] co [dot] uk or PM me if you'd like to get on board).

This is at the planning stage just now but I'd be keen to do something near / just after Christmas!

My bad, £187 is the different (£300 + £500 = £800 not £900)

Still a bargain!

just thinking - would you not need to do 8 or 12 companies? just thinking about number of pages in a booklet

Yes half way there was just a figure of speech. One or two will be taking double spreads to fill up open spaces and keep the cost down.
