Missing the Bridal Show? Try Flyer Placement!
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the effectiveness of flyer placement on windshields as a marketing strategy for an upcoming bridal show. Participants express skepticism about the method, citing concerns over potential backlash from the event organizers and the likelihood that flyers will be discarded. Instead, they recommend contacting the event organizers to inquire about future opportunities for marketing, such as being added to a notification list or securing a space for brochures. The consensus is that traditional flyer distribution may not yield significant results and could damage future relationships with event coordinators.

The Expo may get upset if you are out in the parking lot putting flyers on vehicles and you are not a vendor. If you don't care about ruffling feathers, it can't hurt. It's easier to get forgiveness than it is to get permission! LOL But if you ever plan to try to get your foot in the door with them, you might not want to do that.

Ask yourself this...when other companies use this method of marketing..does it do anything for YOU as a consumer? Do you save that flyer and think "I'm going to call this person"I've never even considered it when I've gotten them. They are just annoying because you always get into your car and THEN see the flyer and have to get back out to get it off your window....so I wouldn't waste the time being the person putting the flyers on the cars, and they just end up in the trash.Maybe instead, contact the company doing the show and find out if you can get put on their notification list for their NEXT event. If you are nice, you MIGHT even be able to inquire about this year's attendees- see if they have a place for you to put some brochures or something? Who knows. Worse case, you end up with something for next time....
