  • Drive Online Traffic

    Leaflets are boosting web visits by 50% year-on-year. You can drive more traffic to your website and boost your sales by adding your special offers and a QR code to your leaflets.

  • Targeted Reach

    Targeted leaflet campaigns can hit response rates of 8-10% or more. By focusing on households based on their shopping behaviour and preferences, you can boost both response rates and ROI.

  • Product launches

    Tangibility is what sets leaflets apart, and when you use them to introduce new products or collections, that physical touch gets people excited and eager to see what’s new.

  • Multi channel marketing

    For big events like Black Friday or Christmas, using leaflets alongside other channels can make the most of online-offline integration, boosting your promotions and driving more sales.

  • Personal touch & trust

    Leaflets add a personal touch and build trust that digital ads often miss. Being a physical item, they make customers feel valued and boost their desire to visit your store or website.

Frequently asked questions

How do I select the right households to target?

Leafletdrop gives you access to a total of over 30 million households in the UK. You can target postcodes around your business either by selecting a geographical radius or drive-time for distribution, and by identifying relevant households based on your target audience.

How long does it take for my leaflets to reach my target audience?

When scheduling your distribution, you will need to pick a date three weeks in advance to allow for Royal Mail to plan in the distribution. Your leaflets will then be delivered over a two week period from your chosen start week subject to availability. If there are any problems with availability, we will be in touch to select alternative dates.

How much does a Leafletdrop campaign cost?

The cost of your campaign will depend on the service option you require.

1. For distribution only, Leafletdrop gives you a price for distributing your leaflets to your chosen target households.

2. For print and distribution, Leafletdrop gives you one all-inclusive price for printing, transporting and distributing your leaflets to your target households based on the leaflet size, style, format and quantity you choose.

3. View our pricing section to get a quote if you have a specific mail format and/or campaign volume in mind.

How do I add multiple postcode sectors or cities?

You can add multiple sectors, one at a time. For example, find your target audience in Birmingham and add the sectors. You will then be shown a link to say 'Add a new area'.

How much does the printing of my leaflets cost?

This will depend on the size, weight and quantity required. If you know this information already, then you can use our price calculator to give an accurate price of printing your leaflets.
