Is the Royal Mail Better Than Mr Flyer? (Updated)

This is probably the most revealing and fascinating to research blog I have wrote so far. The way the Royal Mail operates is quite unbelievable; read on to see why. All too often we get calls where a potential new client questions if we are ‘cheaper’ than the Royal Mail, and why they should use us instead of them. I have written this so you can see the differences between the Royal Mail and Mr Flyer, and choose for yourself which is best for your business.

What is 'the' response rate from leaflet distribution?

The question of 'what is the response rate from leaflet distribution' has to be one of the most commonly asked questions we at Mr Flyer receive from potential and existing customers. Back in 2016, we released a blog on the DMA website on this subject, which ranked the 3rd most read blog on the site that year! Six years on, we felt it appropriate to update this blog. The stats are fresh, the analysis updated, and a unique response tracking software is revealed!

Is social media marketing better than printed marketing?

The return on investment from social media marketing versus door drops and direct mail is quite unbelievable; read on to see why. A few years ago, I wrote a blog titled, 'Is the Royal Mail better than Mr Flyer' using our Mr Flyer mascot's image in a boxing ring versus Postman Pat. This blog has for years ranked our second most viewed page, second only to our home page. Equally, when you search on Google for 'Royal Mail leaflet distribution', it ranks second behind the actual Royal Mail door to door page. Clearly then, it spiked interest!

Here to help you get your business back on track!

We are now entering a much more exciting season as Britain looks to get the cogs turning again following an almost stand-still during the past couple of months.


As businesses look to get started again, you may find yourself in one of the following categories:

1) A complete halt of all work, with no enquiries, leads or outstanding business;

2) A trickle of enquiries that will keep you busy for a couple of days or weeks, but not much beyond that; or
