[jimbob]

worth a shot when i got my leaflets designed the company emailed the proofs over to me and i just printed a few out on glossy a4 paper got the misses to laminate them at work then put them up

 

[Posh]

Don't do hotels. Your end up sleeping on the bed lol. Thought you already had a hotel H?

 

[Posh]

I said that a long time ago H. Why waste money on fancy flyers when 90% of them will go in the bin.

 

[harunh]

posh it will cost me the same amoint of money if i buy a new printer then i have to buy the paper and on top of that i got to buy the ink.... thats expensive aswell.... plus its more headache and vistaprint are very cheap /emoticons/ohmy.png i dont know how their so cheap ?

plus ive got a hotel/pub at the moment but thats only 60 quid a month /emoticons/sad.png i need something like thats over 100 pound ! /emoticons/sad.png

i need a few big jobs not just 1

at the moment i got 2 big jobs and thats the pub/hotel and a retail chain

i need 10 on my list minimum am on 2 at the moment /emoticons/smile.png/emoticons/tongue.png

 

[GMcleaning]

please stop saying retail chain, you dont clean a retail chain you clean A retail store, but back on topic, let us know how they come out H

why bother designing them yourself when most printers offer free design and have experience

I think it works out cheaper to do it yourself and that way you can make yours stand out rather than using a standard template.

It also means you can print then when you need them, no need to wait 12 days or whatever for vista print lol

Plus I can also focus on certain services. For example at this time of year ill be pushing te gutter cleans for winter, and may time ill be pushing Upvc and driveways from the dirt from winter /emoticons/smile.png

Each to their own though, everyone's requirements are different...

Yeah your right H but once you got that that's it. Also you can just take them & get em photocopied. You can design your own & get 4 leaflets on I sheet of a4. Get a 100 photocopied for about a fiver & you have 400 leaflets. You won't have to buy loads of ink & a4 paper is dirt cheap from tescos.

I think any effort, is worth a shot when it comes to gaining monthly contracts. More than likely you will only have to get one, and you'll make the money spend on those flyers back in one month.

But why do you want a minimum for 10 harunh, IMO when you running a small business, its better to have 300 small jobs, than 15 large ones, because if you loose one or two of those large jobs, its a big dent in your income. where as you could loose 10 small jobs, and still be able to recover. IMO those big ones will be hard to replace if you do loose them.

I don't think you shouldn't go for them, or take on large jobs. But you don't want it to be a major part of you income, when your still trying to establish yourself.

I'm not sure whether the above post is supposed to be a joke, but let's suppose it's serious.

H, I really cannot over emphasize how much you need to get help doing this.

Remember the 17,000 leaflets you had to trash. Prepare to do the same again unless you eat humble pie and get off this "I'm so great.... I can do anything.... I'm so much better than anybody else.... I've got the best idea's in the world" sort of thing.

 

[harunh]

vito what u on about mate ?

most people go on to vistaprint and use a preset template

i liek to design my own mate

and .....

I'm so great.... I can do anything.... I'm so much better than anybody else.... I've got the best idea's in the world" sort of thing. ? ? ? ?

not at all mate /emoticons/wacko.png your like a girl by saying that get a grip of yaself ya little freak

RC said it worked for him and i think it would work for me /emoticons/smile.png i feel confident

if u havent got anything decent to say then just keep ya keyboard tucked in !

 

[CNS-southwest]

I PERSONALY will do it myself an I think you should go for it H

But please if no one else does at least email it to me to proof read before printing.

You can look over it as many times as you want but there still might be something you ain't seen, 2nd pair eyes always good mate.

 

[harunh]

rcs has got loads of errors in it lol

 

[CNS-southwest]

rcs has got loads of errors in it lol

No need to attack anyone or name n shame anyone mate, just offering my help

 

[harunh]

i no /emoticons/smile.png

havent seen rc for a while

 

[vito61]

Harunh, this is you at 6:31pm saturday

"I dont use templates i design my own with ma own logo etc , templates arent good at all ! Thats why i do ma own design it toke me 2 hours designing it"

That's what I'm on about. To start with that should read -

"I don't use templates. I design my own with my own logo etc. Templates aren't good at all! That's why I do my own design. It took me 2 hours designing it"

Secondly. What makes you such an expert that you can dispense with all professional offerings out there? Dismissing all templates, saying "templates arent good at all".

"RC said it worked for him and i think it would work for me /emoticons/smile.png i feel confident"

Good for you.

Then you go and say "rcs has got loads of errors in it lol". O yes, snigger, snigger.

However, I refer again to the 17,000 you trashed earlier in the year.

I apologize if I have caused any offense, but you don't endear yourself to anyone with your attitude " I'm so great.... I can do anything.... I'm so much better than anybody else.... I've got the best idea's in the world" sort of thing." "

For others reading this and wonder what's going on. Check H's earliest posts. Before he had even got a window wet he was lecturing everybody with how he was going to set the window cleaning world on it's head with his fantastic, new, different approach.

I'm just a little niggled because he's still doing it. It's known as "shooting from the lip"

 

[harunh]

templates arent good mate... cos their just to basic... plus i like to design my own with my own logos etc /emoticons/smile.png

dont get me wrong... templates do still work ! anything works but i like to make it more fancy if u get me /emoticons/smile.png

ye it worked for rc so hopefully it works for me ! and yeah it has got loads of errors in it ... so what ? every 1 makes errors ! i never said that in that way your thinking im just saying his has got errors in it i noticed when i kind of copied it /emoticons/tongue.png lol

and stop tryna come out on top.. mate its the way i am n its the way i talk on here mate if u go a problem then dont read my posts simple as that mate lol /emoticons/wacko.png

and ye i binned 14,000 earlier in the year cos of errors... but so what i learnt from ma mistakes lol
