Painting Flyers

11x17 inches is the standard poster size that stands out on hardware store and HOA boards. This large format lets you show a clear before-and-after exterior photo with your package pricing. Full-color gloss printing on 100 lb stock ensures the flyer stays vibrant for 30 days or more in high-traffic areas.

Yes, listing a starting price like $2,500 for a 2-bedroom exterior repaint attracts homeowners. Add a disclaimer that final cost depends on square footage and siding condition. This protects your estimator's time while still giving prospects a concrete number to consider before calling for a walkthrough.

It is better to split them into separate flyers. Exterior flyers need curb-appeal photos with seasonal pricing, while interior flyers focus on room transformations. Running 500 of each 11x17 flyer costs around $120 total and allows you to target homeowners with the right message for their specific project.

Yes, most HOAs require permission before posting any flyers. Contact the property manager or board secretary to ask about their posting policy. Some allow flyers up to 11x17 for 2 weeks, while others limit to 8.5x11. Getting approval keeps your flyer up longer and protects your professional reputation.

Gloss coating is ideal for outdoor boards because it resists moisture and fading. A 100 lb gloss book stock with UV coating will stay bright for 4 to 6 weeks even in direct sunlight. Matte finish can look dull and absorb humidity, so stick with gloss for any flyer posted outside a hardware store or community center.

Absolutely, adding your state license number builds trust with homeowners. Place it near the bottom of your 11x17 flyer along with insurance details. Many homeowners check license status online before calling, so including it upfront can increase walkthrough requests by 15% or more compared to flyers without it.

Order 500 to 1,000 flyers for a spring exterior campaign. Distribute 50 per hardware store or HOA board and track response with a unique QR code per location. With a typical 2% to 3% call-in rate, 500 flyers can generate 10 to 15 estimate walkthroughs. Reorder fresh flyers every 6 weeks to keep the offer current.

Use a unique QR code on each flyer that links to a landing page with a phone number or contact form. For example, code A for Ace Hardware and code B for the HOA board. In 60 days, you can see that 8 of 12 walkthroughs came from the hardware store flyers, helping you focus your next 500 flyer drop.
