Leaflets have long been used by retailers to help boost trade and this marketing technique may be particularly useful at present.
After all, economic conditions remain tough in the UK at present and many consumers have reined in their spending. This means, if they are to persuade potential customers to part with their cash, companies may have to go that extra mile.
To help them create the best impression when dispensing advertising material like this, firms can make use of attractive and professional leaflet display stands. By heading online, managers can source modern, appealing and practical stands in no time.
Highlighting the difficulties facing stores at present, the British Retail Consortium has revealed that shopper numbers fell in January. According to the organisation, footfall during the 31-day period was 4.6 per cent lower than the same time a year ago.
Out-of-town locations suffered the greatest declines, with 7.2 per cent fewer visitors over the month. These areas were followed by shopping centres and the high street, which suffered falls of 5.2 per cent and 3.3 per cent respectively.
Commenting on the figures, Diane Wehrle, research director at Springboard, said: “Despite an encouraging start following a strong period of Boxing Day sales, the decline in footfall on the high street of 3.3 per cent in January is the largest since 2010 with the severe weather undoubtedly deterring customers from venturing out to shop during a period when they were already stretched from Christmas.”
By using effective leaflets and leaflet display products, managers may find it easier to drum up custom.
