I’m looking to make a new door hanger for residential homes. I was wondering if anyone has a door hanger that landed some good responses back from them! If so, can you please share your ideas.
Thanks,
Austin
I know the wcra has a bunch of templates

I like it! I’m just going to give a few suggestions I see off the bat
I would replace connect with me
With
Find us or connect with us
I’d get rid of the underline on full service include
Maybe all caps but I think the bold blue works.
Also I’d replace the 1234 with bullet points
I’d change the 3 photos at the bottom to one very nice photo preferably of you cleaning a home.
The front is really good!
Just my initial thoughts

These are ones I was working on. They need some work still. Need 2 better photos of us cleaning home windows traditionally and also get rid of some of the water effects
Thanks for the feedback Luke. I’m going to adjust my wording around a bit. I think that’s pretty solid advice! I’m ready to pass these babies out, and get some money rolling in.

I love the design! Looks professional! But there is no call to action on there. Throw an offer out on it with a scarcity and a time frame. This will create urgency even if there really was none but the point is to get your viewer to take action.
Here’s an example
“Now until August 31st 2018 have 10 windows cleaned inside and out for only 99 dollars! Only 7 spots remaining at this price! Call now!”
Whoops! I didn’t see the front of this. 20% off offer is vague. Needs more specifics. 20% off what? 10 dollars? 100? 1000?
I would rephrase with a specific offer like this. “Now until September 5th 2018, get 15 windows cleaned inside and out with screens for 179 dollars, (normally a 399 dollar value). Call today only 9 spots remaining!”
I agree on the offer & thank you for your feedback. I was burning the midnight oil & I wrestled with the offer bc every job is different so went with 20%. I made this before I joined this group so I’ll sending in before finishing for feedback moving forward. Thanks again Jacob!
I like the $99 for 10 windows…consciously it’s easier to spend and I’ll upsell on screens, tracks & the remaining windows plus gutters etc…Thx bro!!
Quick question. I have been handing out door hangers for a little while. Not to many calls coming in, do any of you knock on the doors and talk to the home owners?
Sure you could also do a today only special if they are not budging with any of the packages. Additional windows are extra but I always tell them I have so many appointments I can’t go back and forth with the special today only price. It would save a lot of trouble for both of us to get this scheduled today. The offer will be gone soon as I walk out the door even if I get pulled back in.
@Cashman Always knock if it’s in the middle of the day. If they are spending time on you, they are willing to hear you out. Your goal is to get into their house to sit down and talk, not break in the house. The only time I would suggest not handing out flyers is at night because of neighborhood watch, also soliciting without a permit is technically a federal offense which nobody ever calls you on. It’s like 10 dollars I believe but I filed for one and I never got mine.
However, if you work all day and still want to build. I will do a storefront run video at night, I canvassed a ton of stores usually 100-200 at a time at night without talking to people. I get an average of 2-4% to call me back.

Thanks Jacob. Yes I love talking to people. Sometimes I feel bad for waking up day sleepers but for the most part they put a note on their doorbell. It is a nee process to me at somepoint. Trusting for the last 16 years working for someone else, to relying on myself to bring in something everyday.
Just a heads up on door hangers. I found out that in my county, I need to have a soliciting permit. Its about $100. This really emplies that if you talk to someone about your business while handing out door hangers and you dont have a soliciting permit you could get fined. So cover your 6 everyone.

I was just going to mention that. I heard it’s a federal offense to solicit without a permit. However, you could chance it if you want because most people don’t actually know the laws. Generally law enforcement will just ask you to leave before they bring you in, they have generally more pressing issues than worrying if you have a permit or not. It’s mostly so they know you are not breaking and entering. My county the permit is 5 dollars.
The other thing is if there is a no soliciting sign, just follow the sign. However, if you want a challenge, there are creative ways around that that are no illegal and usually people who put those up in the first place are actually really good customers. Sounds strange but it’s true.

I agree with you Jacob, there are ways around it. Some of my best calls have been from people who have a no soliciting sign and they were in their garage while Approached.
