I personally have found that I gain about 1 customer per 50 flyers that I hand out. So if I am looking to gain 100 new customers, I know that I will need to hand out at least 5,000 flyers. Additionally, I have produced better results handing out flyers to the same homes each time I distribute flyers vs. new homes. For whatever reason, people seem to be more responsive to the ads after they have seen them a time or two.

Business cards and magnet car signs: having a business card on hand is great because you never know when a neighbor may approach you and ask you whether you can cut their grass beginning in a few weeks. Having a card to give them will make you look professional and increase the likelihood of your being called. Additionally, having magnetic car signs that state your business service and phone number are another great way of reaching people because they go with you everywhere you go and make it clear to neighbors that you can cut their lawn if they ask you.
