Windshield Flyers

I can't go to the movies or mall any more without having a windshield flyer placed on my car?

How effective do you think this really is conversion wise?

The conversion ratio has to be incredibly low because they are being delivered to anyone and everyone.

I would imagine for these to have any success at all the product/service would have to have a wide appeal.

I agree with Speed. Without a filter you're really just throwing mud at the wall and seeing how much sticks.

I suppose you could try to advertise within your demographic if you put flyers on the cars in a specific parking lot.

For example, a vintage wine store may target cars parked in a lot by a fine dining restaurant.

Does that make sense?

I used to give flyers to when I was teenager. In parking lots, shopping malls or any place as long as there are many people passing by. So far it really helped a lot to advertise your own business.

Those flyers are not worthy now , since they are so many and in almost every place that people turn them down and dont even look at them

For some businesses this will fly but with others it will flop. I think too many business owners don't understand the idea of choosing the right tool for the job.

It is especially a bad idea if the weather is bad. There is nothing worse then coming to your car when it rains and having all these wet flyers on your front screen.

I do refinancing here in Indiana. I was thinking of doing this. I would target Golf-Courses and Little League Ball Parks on Saturday mornings (Maybe the parking lots at a Mega-Church on Sun. Mornings lol).

Any tips on other locations would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks!

edit: I'm talking about full color, glossy, jpeg graphics postcards...not b/w kinkos flyers.

Better to set fire to a pile of cash in the parking lot!

Flyers are a waste of time. Especially those given out to you at soccer matches in the UK - the most effective crowd control ever as people do anything to avoid being within arms length of the person giving out the flyers.

My advice - steer well clear.
