Recently I decided to do fridge magnets rather than flyers. Yes more expensive but I am very selective about how and where i hand them out, usually I do it in the immediate vicinity of a job I have just done and then only here and there. So far it is having a much bigger hit rate than flyers. This was my thoughts on going with fridge magnets:

 

1. A flyer is so easy to throw in the bin whereas most people will find it, even slightly, harder to throw away a fridge magnet, so hopefully it hangs around in their house somewhere.

2. It shows a little more care and investment in your business. 

3. It does something, even if holding a bill to the fridge it has a function, whereas a flyer is really just another piece of junk mail.

4. My flyers sucked ass and the hit rate was tiny. around 1%. So far the magnets are around 10%. And its only been two weeks. 

 

 

Of course content is important too but thats another story.

So where did you get em from mate , I have been thinking of getting some magnets for the same reasons . 

Well I got mine from Dynamite Printing in Melbourne, have used them for a while now. You can design it yourself online.

Ive tried everything and fridge magnets are my best source of work. I actually glued them to a paper flyer and deliver in the best suburbs. Worked a treat for me.

By the way, if you need any artwork done, I'm a graphic designer as well. Can design simple magnet or brochure from $80, then have print ready for We Print It, they are well priced. https://www.weprinti...lyers-and-cards

You can get fridge magnets from 5 cents each https://www.alibaba....=fridge magnetsfrom China or around 20 cents each in Australia.

20c is the go, give the chinese nothing and take em nowhere.

Ive been sticking magnets onto the back of my cards for years. Cheap and cheerful and work.
