It's doorhanger season!

[H&L]

By the way, I was also on campaigns where we hired kids to do it for us.

VERY unreliable. You must follow-up with them and drive around neighborhoods just "checking-up" on them and making sure there are actually doorhangers on doors.

For me doorhangers are a no-lose proposition. I love getting out for an hour or two just to be out of the office. I hit it in the morning before I make calls so it's not taking anything away from my work day. It wouldn't really matter to me how long it took to put up all 10,000. They only cost $300 and just one deal more than pays for itself.

Yep. Tried it. Hired a few kids once and thought I could make a living off doorhangers. What a train wreck.

Interesting concept. How often do you go back to the same area and rehang the doorhangers?

I know there are about a dozen realtors that drop stuff on my doorstep monthly, along with assorted gardeners and handymen. I do look at this more than I look at the 3 lbs of junkmail that I pull out of the mailbox, which is placed in the recycle bin without even getting a good look through.

I hit the same areas twice a year. That beats getting hit with the same pizza hangers and Chinese menus once a week. For me it's effective; one deal per 1,000 placed.

John where do you get your door hangers at?

Read the first post in this thread. He tells you where he gets them, and was also nice enough to post a copy he uses.

John-
How was the response to your door hangers this season?

I'm off the doorhangers and got postcard/flyers from here: http://colorperfect24.com - 5,000 of those puppies for $129. I'm actually waiting for them to arrive - should be here tomorrow. Then I'll have two kids plastering my entire town with them.
