haha i have to say that is -very- clever, something new affs never think about, offline marketing. As mentioned in another reply though, is it really worth the time dropping that many cards, once you take expenses into perspective vs return?

From your remark I guess they indeed get dropped, like on the footpath or so? I guess I would incur a huge cleaning bill for doing that around here. | |

Here's an idea, not sure how legal it is though: Get in some big apartment buildings with a ton of units / floor. Tape one of these suckers on every door. Like a ninja. Would this be a nice way to distribute? Just an idea! |

Great idea! Would you be willing to share your design? I would love to have a few printed through gotprint.com. Please PM me if this is something you would consider. Thank you. Also, I have very few posts, so I will not be able to reply by PM. |

I think this is a great idea. What if you put two offers on it? A simple offer like the Ipad offer and then one that pays a little more? Watch out for those littering fines. Keep those good ideas coming Martin, I always enjoy them. GforceSage |

GforceSage, Thanks for the kind words. Yes, you can have 2 offers on one drop card, I have had success with offering a Clickbank product on one side and a CPA offer on the other side, so by all means use the space on your drop card as best as you can to promote. To your success, Martin |

Unless i've missed something, how is that not covering the expenses? Per per lead sounds an interesting idea, but as the traffic won't be targeted it might be tough even to get 1 conversion from 100 cards. | |

Jon, Your idea could work, but if a manager of the apartment buildings see you distributing cards or flyers they will ask you to leave in most cases. What I do for big apartment buildings is I find out who the person is that delivers newspapers there and I work out a deal with them to distribute my flyers with the newspapers and this way I don't have to do the leg work myself. Just an idea to consider. All the best, Martin |

Here are some of the ways I'm having my drop cards distributed and I do have an advantage as being in the offline advertisng business I have conections and friends that own businesses and who are willing to help me. The first way I get my drop cards distributed is from my friend who owns a corner store/meat deli and he let me staple my drop card to all of his meat packages store flyer and he places them in his customers bag. Another ways i get my drop cards distributed is the chinese take-out place I eat at every other day, let me place a business card holder display by the register. I also have a friend who owns a barber shop and he gives one of my drop cards to each of his clients. Another way is my best friend Ed who owns a computer repair store also let me place a business card holder display on his counter. Now I also place a few of my drop cards on all the bulletin boards I go by everyday when I'm out and about handling business and I drop a card or two on all the resting benches I go by. I'm also talking with a friend of mine who teaches at a local college and I'm trying to work out a deal with him to leave my drop cards in hot spots or high traffic areas of the college. I'm not an exspert at CPA marketing I'm still learning and trying to find out what works and what dosn't, but wanted to share what I was doing and thought it might interest others. I hope this answers your question and helps. All the best, Martin |

Sound's like you have quite a distribution method, about how long does 2,500 cards last you?

Not going to lie, I tremendously respect people doing manual bum methods like drop cards. It shows they are willing to roll up their sleeves and work their tales off to learn this business. I'm not saying drop cards are one of the best methods out there, I'm just saying the people who are willing to do methods like this are the ones who are more serious about doing whatever it takes to succeed...and I respect that. That's exactly how I started! |

Ive thought about getting little cards printed that have a folded up bill printed on them or something and just "leaving them places".. Sure to get some attention, but I don't have any projects this would really benefit. Has anyone tried something like that?

Nice idea, I just to use a method dropping flyers with iPad offers and similar in lectures halls inbetween lectures when it was empty and that method was very successful, so many students have laptops or iphones with them at all times, a lot picked them up and went online straight away, but this didn't really have the imagination of this. I know of a company near me that buys golds, I once picked up a 2 pence coin, and it was labelled on the opposite site '£70...this would be worth if it was gold' and their web address, made me but was a very innovative idea at the time |

I don't think he'll be fined for littering, cause someone will definitely pick the card up upon seeing "money", and if that person chooses to drop the card upon opening it, then the littering offense would go to that person wouldn't it ![]() Idea is great have to give it that. Can be used to market a whole lot of other stuff, but needs some work on further research to find out good locations for dropping and also to get more targeted "pickers" |

If I outsource the distribution of my drop cards I can get 2,000 - 5,000 drop cards out to the public in a day or two, now if I do it myself it takes me at least a week. |

If you had a landing page that you created yourself, why not just change out the offer? Also, did you get the approval for your method in writing? Im very curious to know why they would renege if you had an agreement. |

| Maybe put them under windshield wiper blades at malls or other high traffic locations. Maybe just stick them in doors at homes in neighborhoods. Would those work?

How about adding a QR code so that people with smart phones can just scan the card to go to your site/offer. Of course, you will have to be sure that your site is optimized for mobile viewing. Keith |

Examples: Scan to like us and get 100% discount of this and this product. and etc.. But you should give a chance, create one or two drop cards campaigns in different medias, track them, and see how it goes. All that stuff requires action! Just take action and create a case study in this CPA Forum section, I bet a lot people would like to see it. Good luck anyway | |

Great method. I remember Kenster was using "tickets" but printing his URL on them and handing them out. Im looking for some affiliates to try this out for my offer. I pay $50 a conversion. Anyone interested hit me up. |

Great post on the drop card method but one question...after the advertiser banned you did you still get paid the $500 from the leads that you generated?

Hey J, I have friends that help me out sometimes hand out card and they help me for free, but I have also paid a few collage kids to hand out drop cards for me and you would be surprised what they will do for a 12 pack and a pizza ![]() All the best, Martin Quote:

This is a really really great idea. But like what others are saying the offers payout is too little. How about a loan/refurnish your home/insurance/make money from home offers promote them in mailbox? 1) deign a mailer and put it in an envelope 2) similar drop cards 3) pamphlets I think this will have a better impact as people will actually check their mailbox for letters and stuff while going up the lift they have the time to actually read and think about the offer. On top of that they can go directly to their computer the moment they reach home. SO yeah i guess this might work. I might give this a try. But still looking forward to more input from you guys |
