Sandwich Signs Vs Doorhangers


I have alot of exterior work in one of the historic neighborhoods of the city. So far I have not had to advertise. People see me working and come up and ask me for a card or an estimate. However I'm thinking of either doing a sandwich sign on the sidewalk or doorhangers throughout the neighborhood. Before everyone says BOTH which one would you do first ? The street I'm on gets a decent amount of foot and vehicle traffic. The neighborhood is all rowhomes so I could put alot of doorhangers out quickly

Re: Sandwich Signs Vs Doorhangers


I am a door hanger type guy as long as you have it done by a pro graphics person.

I would do a before and after pictures for sure. And since you are doing outside work maybe have a get togeather with 5-10 clients on the job site and tell them your story and the reason you are doing this or that.

I would think educating your future client on your work would get you miles ahead of anyone else.

When someone stops to ask for a card use that few seconds to maybe set an appointment for a free estimate. Good luck

Sandwich signs sound tastier.
