Has anyone tried this before? Distributing pamphlets about web hosting and packages to potential customers, or just leaving a stack of these in public locations.

Is it effective? Does it work? Is it suitable for this kind of business?

I've had very, very good luck with this on the dial-up access side of things, but on the web hosting side it really wasn't effective at all.

Were about to launch something similar to this for one of our cell phone advertisers. I'll let you know how this goes... =p

Yeah sometimes I wonder how much offline advertising like this we should do with online advertising.

Im actually in the process of sending out to intrested parties a advet and order form they can fax through!

I will tell you also how it goes!

We expect it to only attract and another 30 or so customers, hardly worth it really for the amount you are sending out and number of sign ups!

I mean a full page ad in a popular Computer Mag gave us ONE customer thats right ONE!

Oh well!

Haha... yeah I sure do. :D

But really, who are they fooling saying it's just photography or art? It's like Napster users saying they use the service ONLY to download songs they already own.

How about radio advertising? Effective? I'm planning on attempting this in the near future.
