We've started doing the door hangars as well.  When we do an install,
installer will put a hanger on neighbors doors where we KNOW we can get them
service.  Beats all of the unknown "random" callers that we have to go a
site survey before we know if we can service them.

We door hang.  For sure links, we hang a flyer on their door on the OUTSIDE
of their mailbox  Never the inside, bad mojo with the post office by
putting INSIDE the box.  We use the circle sticklers by Avery and print them
up on the laser printer.  Essentially.  FREE! 

 

As Blair condensed, Newspaper sucks,. Road signs, forget about it.  Direct
mail, $$$  Tried billboards ONCE, YIKE$!  

 

The door hanging gives us the biggest bang for the buck by far.

 

 

I like cheap.

for us...

Newspaper  -- 1  ...  24 weeks... 2 responses
road signs  -- 5  if by this you mean yard signs like real estate agents use
Direct mail  -- 9  But see below...
demo trucks  -- never tried
billboards  --  never tried
word of mouth  --  9

We started direct mail this year...  But we do it differently than many.

we drive by and record addresses and rate them as low cost, medium cost or
high cost install.

Then we mail pre-qualified for service flyer's to all the low cost ones
offering $50 off the install good for 2-4 weeks.

The response rate is around 4%

The trick is to use multiple so that you get 3-4 (touches) to your potential 
client to gain a trust.
