Another idea:
I created some brochures to hand out. I made a little "take away gift" basket and added my brochure to the basket. My idea was get a small basket, I'm talking cheap $3 or so. I then went to a craft store (Micheal's) and looked in the wedding aisle for the party favors. I wanted to see what was available that would work to create a little take away gift. I found these cute little bags with green leaves on it. Not much bigger then a business card. I bought those along with a few baskets. I then went to the grocery store and bough green tea bags. I created a little bag w/ a few green teas, a business card and a small note stating the benefits of green tea and how it can help you lose weight. I combined all this nicely in my basket with my brochure. My basket only holds about 10 of these little gifts, so not going out of my way. Now, my goal is to take these to places and see if they will let me put them on the counter. Then just go back in a few days and grab the basket or restock it. I decided my first basket would go to the little restaurant I stop by every day for lunch. They have a small counter just inside the door. The lady was thrilled to help! She let me put it right there. I'll have to create a new basket and take a picture to share with you all. But, now if everyone takes 1 bag that's 10 cards I gave a way. The whole thing costs a few bucks per bag to create (maybe $2-3). Maybe few more took brochures! Catch my drift, my name is out there! There are other things you can add to your gift bag? Tape measures, candles, protein bars the list is endless!
I also carry about 5 or so brochures with me when I go into grocery stores where I would post the flyers from my previous post. Most grocery stores have community bulletin board, but they also have slots for brochures. So, not only do I post a flyer, I add a few brochures!
