Where Else Can I Leave My Catalogs for Effective Distribution?

[cwinter474]

I have been leaving catalogs all over town, no responses as of yet. In doctor's offices (with permission), salons, mall bathrooms where there are setting area's like sofa's. Has anyone ever tried something like a FREE, Take One sign with a few catalogs on their windshield? I live in a larger city just off the metro city, so I'm sure there are alot of other consultants as well.

Anybody think of anyplace else to leave catalogs? Or what do you do with your extra's?

Ask permission from small businesses around your home like a bakery, bookstores, vet offices, kid's resale shops, waiting rooms in the ER, etc...
Some businesses may let you leave lead boxes at their place of business. You could use these to have small giveaways and get potential leads on orders, shows, or recruits. Hope this helps. I also give away old catalogs at fairs, yard sales, with every craigslist item I purchase or sell to someone here in town. It works!

Hi Carolyn,I think leaving catalogs in doctor's offices and salons is a great idea! Have you tried leaving them in local businesses or community centers as well? You could also try reaching out to local events or fairs to see if you can set up a booth or leave catalogs at their information tables.As for the FREE, Take One sign on windshields, I'm not sure how effective that would be. Some people may see it as littering or spam. Maybe try asking permission to leave catalogs in public places like libraries or coffee shops instead.As for what to do with extra catalogs, have you considered hosting a catalog party or offering them to your current customers to share with their friends and family? You could also donate them to local organizations or charities that may benefit from your products.Good luck with your catalog distribution! I hope you see some responses soon.
