How Effective Is Door Hanger Distribution


Among all the marketing techniques door hangers and their distribution get the most bang for the buck. When compared to even the mass distribution outlets such as Internet advertising based on the number of clicks it generates, door hangers are cheaper and more effective – lasts more than a mere click and even if one does not want it, even the discarding involves having a glance at it and the message seeping into the subconscious, so to say!

Attractively designed and uniquely tailored to the product or the service, a simple but 'telling' door hanger has an impact far beyond its humble origins. It is the most unobtrusive way of catching the attention of a potential customer and if distributed widely it cannot but come to the notice and what's more hold it for longer than routine postal and mail advertising can. After all how many times we throw the bulk of the ad-mail into the trash can even without glancing at it? In this day and age of the Internet and an avalanche of information at one's fingertips, few have the time and inclination to peruse through voluminous – even if they are leaflets – mail advertising material, especially if cluttered with information. The humble door hanger overcomes this overkill neatly by its very ubiquitousness and simplicity.

The door hanger distribution compares more favorably with flyer distribution, with the latter involving more outlay and also entailing the risk of the prospective client getting irritated at the intrusiveness of the caller if it is handed in person, or if just left at the doorstep the likelihood of being picked up only to be thrown into the trash bin. The Flyer and the leaflets have their effectiveness, but not to the same degree as a properly distributed door hanger. After all for a person returning home after a hard day's work, a door hanger at the door knob is an immediate attention catcher. For one has to handle the knob and thereby the door hanger physically to open the door and get in. It is in this 'intimate' handling stage that the door hanger cannot but draw one's attention, and utilize the '3 seconds' span to its utmost effectiveness.

Finally, in these days of tight jobs and the availability of many people who will take up a part time and undemanding job like door hanger distribution in a targeted neighborhood and as a team effort, door hanger distribution is easy and least expensive. It is truly a case of ' well begun half done ' – the other half being, of course, the actual marketing of the product to the client who decides to go for the product or service spurred by the door hanger's message.

Door hangers beat out the competition for attention

All businesses have to make sure that they are getting the best value for their dollar. One value intensive method of advertising is door hanger advertising. This type of direct marketing has been around for years, but you may be wondering if it is still relevant for today’s consumer. Door hanger advertisements are, in fact, more relevant than ever.

It’s common knowledge that people are bombarded with radio ads, TV ads, internet pop-ups, and “junk emails”, all of which are all competing for their attention. Door hangers don’t have to compete with any other ads. They are simply resting on the front door knob and must be handled, and thus looked at, as the customer enters their home. Not only that, but they will bring it inside their home. Other family members will encounter the message, as well as friends or visitors.

Door hanger advertisements don’t simply disappear as radio, TV, and internet ads do. Door hangers are there, where you want them for an indefinite period of time. Once inside the home, door hangers can be posted on the refrigerator with a magnet as a constant reminder to the customer that your restaurant’s number is right at their fingertips, along with a 50% off coupon for a great meal.

Door hanger advertisements have come a long way in design technology and paper quality. A crisp, clear image and tightly expressed message can be powerfully packed into a door hanger advertisement. People appreciate novelty and will enjoy a sharp design or a unique offer. A thoughtful, well-designed door hanger, with your logo, brand, or company slogan can stimulate a potential customer to choose your product or service over another’s simply because they like your style, and so your company.

Another benefit of door hanger delivery is the potential to hit the right target at the right time. Geography counts and yours can be targeted to customers nationwide or by zip code. Radios and TV ads blast to the masses, while door hangers can be selectively given to real potential customers in your local neighborhoods and cities. Your campaign can be specifically targeted to just the folks you know will use your service. Why waste money blasting to everyone about your event? Rather, personally invite them, with a polished door hanger.

Door hanger advertisements add a great value to any advertising campaign. Door hangers are here to stay.
