I am considering to use the company www.katyflyer.com to distribute flyers in my local area.
Do you have any other companies that you have used in the past?
i dont know about your area but in pennsylvania and new jersey when you go to dgas stations or super markets the yusually have stands where ooklets on homes for sale, cars, rentals etc are being displayed. there should be a number as to who owns the stands. i just did this a little over a week ago and have had great success advetising through them
I paid Katy Flyer last week (2/16/07) to distribute flyers in my area, and the person I talked to said that he would be e-mailing me this “cool map” of the area to show where they would be distributing them and that someone would be out to pick up the flyers and get them out that weekend. I never received a map and no one ever came by.
I called on Monday and I got a voice mail. I called on Tuesday and I got another voice mail. On Wednesday, I sent an e-mail to all of the e-mail addresses I could find on their site to complain, and I finally got an e-mail response on Friday (2/23/07):
"We’ve been moving around here and have had an interruption in services.
Do you still need the flyers distributed? It seems that the team was busy last Friday and didn’t have time to get to your project.
The rain is always an issue in the Seattle area."
Bottom line: In my opinion, find someone local. I found a company by checking with members of my local REI club.
Hope this helps.
