Direct sales and marketing through leaflets and handouts
Spreading the word through leaflets and handouts has been one of the most conventional of techniques adopted by Direct Sales and Marketing companies the world over. Times have changed and lots of new avenues and possibilities have opened up for marketing companies to try out their marketing strategies and promotion tactics. With the communication revolution overtaking our lives and changing the meaning of things, Direct Sales and Marketing has gone all trendy and techno-savvy and what all possibilities are coming up are made use of in the best possible manner. But still, the basic and conventional mode of making promotions through leaflets and handouts continues to be practised almost everywhere.
It's mostly in the localised kind of marketing that the leaflets and handouts, with all relevant information in it, proves useful. Of course this doesn't bring as much direct response as is got in tele-marketing or direct mail, but it proves very useful if it's a product that has more wide and universal kind of appeal and doesn't call for promotion on a one-to-one basis. The leaflets that seek to speak for your company or product can be distributed at places where people gather or can be got into every single building in an area (this is called 'Blanketing') using door-to-door hand delivery or the postal service. Feedback too can be had by including gift offers, discounts, prizes etc. It's no wonder that many Direct Sales and Marketing companies still stick on to this mode of marketing.
