    Weird business idea

    There is a different tack to this i feel. Rather than make it a mournful sad thing, make it into a celebration of their life. A record of their life rather than a record of their death. I only say this as i was asked a while ago if i would take this project on for someones family to remember the...

    Weird business idea

    I am not an insurance expert, but in theory, unless she is taking property i.e actual photos, letters etc then i cant see where insurance would help. As an idea, i feel it would have more legs if she created a DVD rather than a scrapbook, then she could also include home videos, slideshows with...

    Solar Lights

    May i ask the reasoning behind the £30,000 per year? You give the impression that your lights are expensive? In general, I have seen a steady rise in the use of solar lights in my area but for no other reason that the street lights are turned off overnight (our council are tight) and with long...

    legal limitations to e-mail marketing?

    The problem that i see from harvesting emails from the web is that the email will be info@ or something similar, so the same as a generic letter to "the manager" instead of the name of the decision maker. This means you running the gauntlet of who is actually going to receive your email or...

    Leaflet drop not working or am I just panicking?

    Agreed Chris, but do you not think that trends, even from a few years ago have changed? I buy fresh fish delivered to my door by a local fishmonger. Do i buy because it is fresher than the supermarket? No, i buy it because he comes to my door lol. Its the service that needs to be marketed as...

    Leaflet drop not working or am I just panicking?

    Thats a dangerous path Massey. How is that people that "look that they go to iceland" mean that they do not want fresh local produce? Quick story: I used to work for a large electrical chain, guy walks in looking like a tramp so no other sales people would go near him. Turned out he was a...

    Leaflet drop not working or am I just panicking?

    Restaurants do like to say things like "local produce" and such like. Op, have you tried your local restaurants, gastro pubs etc? You may get an almost daily contract from a few

    Leaflet drop not working or am I just panicking?

    "Is this a solo drop or a multi-drop? Solo drops tend to have better ROI as it's not thrown in with other businesses leaflets." Unless the delivery is on a Sunday or evenings, then i must say that your leaflet will not be the only thing on the doormat come evening time. Drop me a pm and i will...

    Reliable Solus leaflet distribution needed in North wales

    Hi Briton1981, I cannot help you with who but i would suggest that you save money and go with a shared delivery if they are to be delivered during weekdays (working hours). Unless the distributors will deliver sundays, early mornings or evenings your leaflet will join the pile that Royal Mail...

    Plumbing business . Lost my way

    I second NjT comment No3, deliver a card (not a thin leaflet) max A6 into surrounding homes of a job you are currently doing. It amazes me that few people do it. It would work best if the current job is for a few days as people will see your van in the vicinity as well (taking that it is sign...
