Photo Flyers Start Getting Distributed

Since the delivery of my flyers early last week, I’ve been itching to start getting them “out there” where they can do me some good. A heat wave and various things interrupted, but now I’m making some progress.
First of all, many people have asked to see the final version of the flyer, and for a jpeg version that they can email to friends and family. Click on the image of the flyer below to download a 1000px wide, 200kb jpeg of the flyer. Below the image is a link to download the full-size, high res PDF original. You can use this for printing copies of your own, or if you like, use it as the base for your own design flyer to promote your photography business. As long as your version looks different enough from mine that it can’t be confused, and you don’t use any of my actual words or images, you can do what you want with the PDF.
If you live in or near Melbourne, please feel free to pass my flyer on to anyone you think might find it useful! Thank you :)
So far, roughly 800 flyers have made their way into the world. About 100 have gone to a couple of friends, I paid a friend of a friend to put 400 into letterboxes in their area – a relatively wealthy suburb – and I’ve letterbox dropped maybe 350 or so myself in my local area. I have 2500 flyers, and I need to get them out, as they’re not helping me sitting in the box. I intend to deliver several hundred more in my area, and ask a few family members to take a few hundred each and deliver them to neighbourhood houses in their areas when they go for a walk.
Here’s the houses (in blue) that I have canvassed with the flyers in three days of walks. Still lots more to do!

This is rather more walking than I’m used to, but I listen to music and I know that it’s doing me good, in more ways than one!
I’m looking forward to receiving some enquiries soon I hope!
Photo Flyers Arrive!

After a very long, very hot night, I was rewarded this morning with the delivery from the printer’s of a box full of my first photography promo flyers! I have never seen 2500 copies of any of my photos before, but I now have a whole box of them!
I was originally planning to start putting them in local letter boxes as soon as they arrived, but the current record-breaking heatwave that has Melbourne paralysed (43C+ today and yesterday) would make that dangerous. In the meantime I’ll be working on a contract for clients, and making a phone record form, for me to take down bookings when they come.
I’m SO close now to getting business going! I’m very excited :)
