How much does leaflet distribution cost per 1,000?
£50 for 1,000 leaflets delivered to homes, with the design included in that price. The rate improves as the round grows: the household ladder runs 1,000 leaflets for £50, 2,000 leaflets for £95, 3,000 leaflets for £135, 4,000 leaflets for £170, 5,000 leaflets for £200, so the largest rung works out at £40 per 1,000. Business rounds are priced by the addresses reached rather than by leaflets printed, and start at 250 business addresses for £50. Anything above the ladder is quoted on its own.
Who delivers my leaflets?
Local people working their way back into regular employment after homelessness, paid properly for the work and supervised by us. Our first two deliverers are a local couple from Highams Park. Every round is a paid shift on a rota, with a supervisor and a reference at the end, because a shift somebody can count on is what turns work into a job. We do not use unpaid volunteers and we do not subcontract the walking.
Where does the money go?
Deliverer wages come first, before anything else is paid. The running costs of the round come next. We are a nonprofit, so what is left is not taken out as profit: it pays for more rounds, which is more paid hours for the people walking them. That is the whole model, and it is why the round you buy is worth more than the leaflets in it.
Which areas do you cover?
All 22 wards of Waltham Forest, from Walthamstow and Leyton up to Chingford, which is E17, E10, E11 and E4. That is where our deliverers live and where they walk, so it is the borough we know street by street. We are happy to go further into London, and a round outside the borough is quoted the same way as one inside it. Pick a ward on this page to see what it holds.
Do I have to design the leaflet myself?
No. Design is free with every round, and it is not something we hold back and charge for later. Send print ready artwork if you already have it and we will deliver that. If you do not, answer seven questions about the business, the offer and who it is for, and we will draw an A5 leaflet for you. Say what to change and we will draw it again.
How do I know my leaflets were really delivered?
A deliverer we train and supervise walks the round and posts your leaflet through every letterbox on the streets you chose. The route is recorded on their phone as they walk it, and we confirm the round with you when it is done. The page where you watch that happen for yourself is not built yet: it is being set up before our first delivery goes out, and we would rather say so than imply it exists.
How do I book a round?
Ask us for a price. Tell us roughly where you want covering and how many leaflets, and we will come back with what it costs and what that area holds. Nothing on this site takes a payment or places an order: ordering is by enquiry while we are getting started, so the date a round walks is agreed with you rather than guessed at by a form.
