damsels_creations Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Was wondering if you all thought it would be alright tonite to give out an order form along with the candy to the kiddos tonite. I know that we will get alot of kids here tonite, and was just contemplating on whether or not to give out order forms, brochures etc. to them. :smiley2:Wanted to see what everyone else thought about it. One thing tho is I will not have to print out extras for awhile. Unless I give them out tonite that is.Will keep them handy at the door. thanks in advance Tammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budgie Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I don't know...that seems a bit tacky to me. If my kid came home with a brochure I'd glance at it and then toss it in the trash. I'd also be a little annoyed that someone was using my kid to try and push their business while they are suppose to be out having fun. I think I'd try to find another way to get your brochures out there. jmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damsels_creations Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 I was actually thinkin the same thing but wanted to hear what everyone else had to say. It was a thought even if was a fleeing one :tiptoe: .tammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonrose64 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I would say no.Not only tacky, but Those kids will probably take the brochures and throw them out before they even get off your doorstep. The kids don't want brochures, they want candy.I wouldn't want advertisements thrown in my kids treat bags.Seems overly pushy...JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I wouldn't give a brochure to the tiny tots. If their parent is with them, maybe. But that's also quite a big maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luci Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I don't think giving out brochures would be appropriate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindy5140 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 In my old neighborhood, there was a lady that had her own daycare. Every year she would make treat bags up, and tape her card to the bag. She also dressed up like a clown and handed them out to all of the trick or treaters.There was an Avon rep to and what she used to do is , give the kids their candy but then give the adults samples of Avon in their own treat bag.Maybe you could do something like that.Mindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherri in Canada Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Definitely no....if my child came home with a brochure in their candy bag it would be the first thing to be tossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royster13 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Give out votives to the parents who come to the door....Or if you really believe in your product give away other candles....When I was in the pizza business giving away product was the best way to gain new customers....RCS...

RiverStreetDesigns Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 When I did Avon back in the day I gave out Halloween lip balms to the parents and handed directly to them. I didn't give any to the kids. I said something along the lines of the parents deserved a treat too.The parents that got them liked it.
