Types of flyering pitches we staff
Flyer distribution, wherever your audience walks.
Hand-to-hand leaflet distribution is giving printed leaflets or flyers to people face to face at chosen pitches, rather than posting them through letterboxes.
Choose the pitches that suit your audience. Busier campaigns run with a team leader. They move staff between pitches as footfall shifts.
High streets and town centres
Staff approach shoppers within walking distance of your store, salon or venue at the peak points of the day, with an offer they can use on the spot. For campaigns built around the street itself, see street marketing.
Station exits and commuter routes
Morning and evening peaks at station approaches and transport hubs, where there are seconds to make the line land. Station land belongs to the operator, so we flag permission at quote stage. More on train station activations.
Event gates, queues and fan zones
Concert queues, racecourse entrances, stadium walkways and fan zones, working to venue rules and the organiser's access times, so the leaflet arrives while people are waiting with nothing else to read.
Store openings and shop fronts
Distributors outside a new or relaunched store, sending passers-by to the door and the opening offer, often alongside a wider promotional staff team inside.
Campuses and student areas
Freshers fairs, campus walkways and student neighbourhoods, with staff close in age to the people they are approaching. See marketing to students.
Flyers with a giveaway
A voucher, scratchcard or sample handed over with the leaflet gives people a reason to stop and a reason to keep it. The same team can run it as product sampling with a print element.
How we brief flyer distribution teams on your offer
Briefed, checked and seen on the pitch.
Right to work and ID confirmed before anyone is placed. Employer's and Public Liability insurance on every booking. DBS checks or risk assessments on request.
We brief each distributor on your offer, who to approach and the line to open with. The handover sounds like your brand rather than a stranger with a stack of paper.
We handle PAYE, National Insurance and HR in-house. One pitch or twenty sits on one itemised quote.
Geo-tagged check-ins confirm each distributor is at the agreed spot at the agreed time, with a 24/7 support line answered day and night.
Our targeted leaflet distribution puts leaflets in hands
Targeted leaflet distribution, hand to hand.
People drop most leaflets within a few steps, often because nobody gave the person a reason to keep one. A good distributor picks out the right people, says one line about the offer and times the handover so it lands. Across a shift, that is the difference between an empty box and a campaign that gets used.
You supply the leaflets, the offer and the places you want covered. We supply flyering staff chosen for street work, briefed on your message and managed through every shift. The leaflets and any other materials come from you: our part is getting them to the right people. That is what makes it targeted: you pick the pitches and the audience, and each distributor picks the people.

Leafleting, pitches and permissions: questions we answer
Flyering, pitches and permissions: your questions.
What is leafleting?
Leafleting is handing printed leaflets or flyers to people face to face at chosen pitches, so each one reaches someone in your audience. Our leaflet distribution teams are briefed on your offer, check in at each agreed pitch and work hand to hand only, never through letterboxes.
Can your team hand out leaflets in the street?
In most town centres, yes. Some councils designate zones where handing out free printed matter needs consent, and stations and shopping centres are private land with their own rules. We check the pitches on your list at quote stage and flag any that need permission.
Do I need a permit to hand out flyers?
It depends on the council and the pitch. Where consent is needed we flag it at quote stage; allow lead time, because each council sets its own timescale. More detail on permits and permissions.
Who supplies the leaflets?
You do. Our leaflet distribution service supplies the people. You send the leaflets and we make sure they go to the right audience at the right pitches.
Do you deliver leaflets door to door?
No. We are a hand-to-hand flyer distribution company: every leaflet goes face to face to a person, and nothing goes through letterboxes. For letterbox drops, a door-drop distributor is the right service.
Can I hire someone to hand out flyers for one day?
Yes. One distributor for a few hours is as welcome as a team for a month, and the checks, brief and check-ins are the same either way.
How much does leaflet distribution cost?
The number of pitches and people, shift length, the dates, the towns involved and anything handed out alongside the leaflet. Time on the pitch matters more than the number of leaflets. We itemise every quote.
How do I know the leaflets were handed out?
Each distributor checks in by geo-tag at the agreed pitch. The project manager stays in touch through the shift.
Can you run a national leaflet distribution campaign?
Yes. Teams come from the hub nearest each town, so a campaign across many towns on the same dates is still one booking, with one account manager and one itemised quote.
Where in the UK can you hand out leaflets?
Anywhere in the UK, we operate nationwide, from 40 staffing hubs, with dedicated pages for leaflet distribution in London, Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds.
