This is to introduce the new cardsinthewindow Local Vouchers Doordrop that we are launching in Barnes Mortlake and East Sheen in the New Year.

This new voucher doordrop will be delivered to 10,000 local homes and will contain vouchers for offers and discounts from local businesses such as yours.

Our research

Our local research has shown that people in this area would be more driven to spend their money locally if there was some sort of incentive attached.

Local people want this

Local people have told us they would definitely keep our doordrop, pin it to their noticeboards and of course use the vouchers.

Why vouchers?

As you know, vouchers are the new, big marketing tool for large and small businesses alike and are very effective for bringing in many new customers and rewarding old ones - something that every business needs to do to survive these uncertain times.

Why it's better value and more effective than other local advertising

Advertising in our regular dedicated voucher doordrop is much cheaper than producing your own individual doordrop and much more effective than general display advertising in glossy magazines, which is surrounded by editorial matter and harder to find.

Here's a summary of the packages available:

Standard advert - £120 per issue
Double advert - (landscape or portrait) - £200 per issue
Quad advert - (landscape or portrait) - £375 per issue
Rates are negotiable for frequent advertisers

Optional extras:

Front page doordrop position (four ad spaces available) - £50 supplement
Inclusion in our voucher email to 2,000 local people - £50 supplement

Plus - every advertiser receives free ads on www.cardsinthewindow.com

• Free advert on www.cardsinthewindow.com in the category most relevant to your business (local shop, restaurant, dry cleaning etc.)
• Free advert on www.cardsinthewindow.com in the Special offers category, highlighting your offer.
• Every single advert on the website is optimised to help your business get listed on search engines and make your business easy to find on the internet.

What kind of offer should you make?

It's important that your voucher provides an offer which will benefit your business as well as your customers. A straight discount may not always be right for you. Perhaps a free gift with first purchase, a discount for a subsequent visit etc. We're happy to help you come up with the best voucher solution for your business if you need any help with this.

How do I know if it works?

It's easy to see just how much business this brings you. The best thing about this is that it is fully trackable – you know exactly how many new customers you need to pay for your advert and you will be able to count these as people start redeeming their vouchers.

How do we know they get delivered?

We will be using a new local doordrop company, recently seen on Dragons' Den and who have an unbeatable record of delivery completion. They're not the cheapest, but paying these higher prices will guarantee every single one of our doordrops goes where we want it to go.

What does it look like?

Below is an image of what the doordrop will look like. It will be an A2 double sided sheet, folded into A4, so it has high impact on the doormat and easy to browse through.
