Free Mail In Template for Maid Services

I recently received a mail offer from a cleaning company and was just horrified by the words and the layout of the letter but mostly I couldn't understand why if anyone with a young company would be willing to spend the money sending out mail to various communities and not pay a little attention to how the flier looks or whether or not it serves a purpose : Value to the recipient. 

Among other things, the few things that really bothered me include:

  • No phone number to contact, only had an email address and web link. (BIG NO NO)
  • No images, it look like couldn't been sent by a very clean oriented lawyer! Horrible
  • No description of their services at all! 

So decided to make a flier myself for anyone with a cleaning service to download and edit for your use. I learned a couple of things when designing fliers such as the paper real estate is critical so is important that you limit your words but use them wisely so you can describe what the value proposition is and have a couple of call to actions. I decided to make the flier focusing on simple quote prompting so I only included the phone number and a brief summary of services plus the fact that you might be a growing company to entice some trust in the flier. I also added an addressee on the top of the flier to make it a bit more personable. 

By no means is this flier perfect, but because at Unthink we like to offer different services to our business clients I wanted to get in the shoes of a cleaning company and with a budget friendly mindset have a flier design that would offer value to potential clients but also be easy to read and easy to make.
