I think it would be a fantastic marketing experiment. When you want to get the word out about your business, you really have only two choices. Spend to get the word out with money or spend your time.

When you have more time than money, it makes sense to spend time. When you have more money than time, it makes sense to spend money.

Any opportunity you get to meet your neighbors or members of your community you should jump on it. Think of yourself as a politician and go out there shaking hands with people while you hand out business cards.

That is great. If you can keep track of this, at the end of the year, you can figure out where you got the most jobs from and expand on that kind of marketing next year.

Maybe also keep track of the date too. That way you know when people were looking for your services and you can focus more marketing efforts in that date range.

Do you happen to have a copy of your flyer that you were able to get attached to the pizza box? I always like looking at peoples flyers it always sparks ideas for me...as it may for other people.
