I keep getting hastled by Yellow Pages

[BroughtyTiler]

I keep getting hastled by Yellow pages to complete a full advertising for £26/Month so I was wondering what you all were finding was the best advertising for your business.

I have had a listing in Yellow Pages for 4 years now and had only one call from it so I'm not convinced that it would get better with a full advert?

the only calls you will get are from people selling advertising space as they think you must be soft in the head to buy space in yellow pages

says it all really if you have been with them for 4 years and had hardly any work

yellow pages isnt a good source of work imo mate,neither is yell.com as i tried that one too my advice is use that yellow pages money and get a website

if they are hassling you tell them to politely fluff off:smilewinkgrin: if you google tps you can fill in an online for for free to stop some companys calling you for these kinds of things

I've only just realised that I'm not even in BT's residential listings, yet peeps keep ringing via the landline at home, ( due to recommendations)

best for advertising is the local paper
people know your keen for work if your in there.

Do you have a local magazine covering your town / village? Find I get more work / leads from our local mag (distribution about 3000) than anywhere else - Gave up on all the well known directorys several years back - all a waste of time and never got enough work from them to cover the expense!

I had a card on the display in my local Homebase. Its for 3 years and costs a lot of money! However i did really well out of it but to be fair i did have the showroom people giving the cards as well as my sister used to run it and i fitted kitchens for some of the staff too.
