Honest Opinion on this flyer.

[jibspark]

Ive just been designing a flyer to put through some shop doors, and maybe a few houses to. I've scaled down the quality for posting on here but was wandering if you guys could be honest with me and tell me what you think of the design / content.

Its gonna cost about

i think it looks good. you havnt put your scheme provider on though?

 

[jl-heating]

i love it .

my only gripe appart from the scheme is the phone number.

i never ever use anyone who only gives me a mobile number as a contact.

screams gypo in a big white van .

Same as JL - get a landline number on there

for the name, mage get rid of the NMR in white and move the coloured part along to match

 

[jibspark]

well ive not long gone self - employed so i have no scheme provider, the nmr in the orange is more of a logo, i did try it instead of having nmr in white and it didnt look quite right, maybe i will give it another go though. as for the tel number, i totally agree, at the moment i dont want to put my home number down as my other half is a nurse and works shifts, plus the cost of another number and diverting all calls would cost quite a bit.

that said if im gonna get anywere with this i should look at doing something about it! any suggestions?

thanks for all your input so far, keep em comming!

I am with JL on this. Has to be a Landline or people are going to assume you are a "Fly By Night" and will toss it in the bin.

Then put your mobile number underneath it in smaller print.

Also, I and many people that I have spoken to over the years, hate the "No Job too Small" approach.

You explain that by saying "socket face replacements" etc,

Other than them, Mate - It looks great - Well Done. :x

Good Man - You know it makes sense.

I just sounds too "Handyman type" and not a "Professional tradesman".

You say that you are a "Sole Trader", but the impression I got was that you were a company with more than one employee.

The reason is the opener in the top left, stating 'We' and 'We will send an Electrician'.

Correct that mate.

Ive always been tought that for advertising and websites etc you should should always do things that way, im a sole trader yes, but want to be known as NMR Electrical. ie trading as.

 

[Andy™]

Dont really see a problem with 'we' instead of 'I'. there may be times when you are working with someone else etc
