Default Started a distribution business for only $300!!!

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to give an update on how my business for letterbox drops is going. I am in the process of starting it up as we speak.
I got a landline connected at home and its under a business plan with my business name so that I can claim back all the business calls. Also I am getting 1000 flyers printed out for my business and hand delivering these to local business. And I am following up with telemarketing aswell. I have one customer at the moment and whilst I am dropping off the flyers any junk mail I see I COLLECT and ring up the companies to see if I can deliver there brochures aswell. The potential is endless and it cost under $300 to start my business. I am planning to get around six loyal customers and by distributing all their brochures at once-6 by $20 per 1000 is $120 per 1000 houses I do. For one area that is $300 per run. I do the run with my partner and it takes about 6 to 8 hours but we do it during evenings and weekends. It more the excerise and motivation to earn money.....

Default Update on how business is going

Hi,
I just wanted to give an update on how my distribution business is going. I have four regular ongoing customer and do three suburbs -one a week- so alot of walking three times a month....

I will be making around $500 to $600 per month from doing this. I charge only $20.50 per 1000 brochures.
Its not much but its a start and this four customers are ongoing customers. I am very happy with it.
Only issue is the weather-its very hard to do the letterbox drops in bad weather!!!
