I looked at Washington City Paper. It was pretty expensive for a print ad, but I decided to go for a banner ad online. So I am trying that. Getting reasonable traffic, but no conversions yet.
I am also taking what you are saying to heart. I just reserved, "Guerrilla marketing : easy and inexpensive strategies for making big profits from your small business" at the library. So hopefully that will give me some better ideas then shoving junk in people's doors.
I've talked to Gyms, and they said exactly what the other poster said, and that is that they don't allow it. Some have this postcard wall hanging thing, but to get in there is $$ as well.
I've thought about asking Bars, Restaurants, etc. as well. But I think they might feel it would just clutter up the place. Plus do you think they would want a free gift or something? Would it be rediculous to walk in there with a free product, and say, if I can place my cards here, you can have this free.. "Whatever"?
At the same time, the clients going to my website, would frequent restaurants that don't easily hand out cards for other businesses. Hmm, I wonder if they would allow me to put something in the Men's Room.
Thanks for the positive guidance. I'm surprised no one has... well.. you all know :-)
