Yes, great for pizza and Chinese food specials.

I put together a door hanger campaign with my wife for a Vacation Bible School in GA. She and a couple people went out and were kicked out of a couple of neighborhoods! Watch out for neighborhoods with Associations. You would think that it's similar to direct mail. People get very sensitive when you walk up their driveway.
You are probably mistaken for those kids that peddle magazine subscriptions door to door.
Hardly a day goes by that I don't have something hanging on my mailbox. Pizza, chinese food, roof repair, driveway repair, house cleaning, landscaping . . . and this is from the same company.
If the pizza ad has coupons, and I like their pizza, I will keep the flyer. Otherwise it and everything else goes in the garbage. I have never hired any of the handymen to work on my house but someone must be. The driveway & landscape folks keep putting out flyers so it must work.
Nor have I bought health insurance based on a sign posted on a telephone pole.
My personal opinion is, a well designed business card handed out is more effective than door hangers or mail box hangers.

Maybe. We have a lady here who does "pet sitting" - she'll watch your pets while on vacation and also walk your dog during the day.
All of her business comes from doorhangers in the community - none of the ads she placed ever pulled.

Sorry...but I've made quite a bit of money off doorhangers for 4 years. What's your personal experience been with them?
What type neighborhoods? What type of offers were you presenting? What did the hanger look like? Since you were successful what advice do you give.

I've posted extensively on it including uploading my doorhanger - just search the forum for "doorhangers" and you'll find it.
This seems like something that a teenager might do for a couple of days. I had a friend whose father opened a hardware store and paid these guys to do "door hangers". He followed them one day and they were throwing them in the trash.
This job is hard enough, I can't imagine who would respond to this type of advertising for health insurance and the retention rate. Wait.. I can imagine, not a good image.

Well that's the difference between imagining and doing. I know the results - other have to guess. It's not for everyone - it's been for me for years and I'll never stop putting them out as long as I'm writing business.
If you're in my area in MD just note that the results are actually horrible and I would never recommend this marketing activity
