flyer distribution...

Anyone know of a good and cost effective flyer distribution service?

Fivver is unreliable and craigslist is not something I want to do.

    Just hire a local high school or college student who has a smart phone and tell them to send you pictures a few pictures of them doing the job.

    I work with pizza shops and Chinese restaurants in the areas that I want flyer's distributed and I offer to split the cost of what they would pay their employee who would be distributing the flyer's door to door in that area anyway and it has worked out well for me.

    Also you could try a day labor company such as Labor Ready and have them hire a person to distribute your flyer's.

    I hope this helps,

    Martin

    I went the craigslist route and it took three appointments before anyone decided to actually show up. I had no idea about the realtor thing, that's great advice.

    I landed to this job when I was in college, it was a part time job. We need to disposed 2000 copies in one day. Though it was tiring but I enjoyed it! the company paid us around $15 per day for two days.

    Don't discount Craiglist ads. I recently put an ad out for someone to distribute flyers in my section of town and I literally had dozens of responses. Some even included resumes! Post in the "gigs" sections under Labor and you'll have more candidates then you'll know what to do with.

      lol about the resume thing. I once put up a job posting for something else and said DONT SEND ME A RESUME, all in caps lock and I still got 60-80% of emails with some dumb resumes attached on them.
      And then I filtered out the more serious ones, sent out replies and nobody answers because they found the job to be too hard I guess

      thats why I am not using craiglist for anything else except selling my old crap.
