Distributing leaflets throughout the United Arab Emirates can be challenging, particularly if you want to reach specific geographical areas. Some companies specialize in door-to-door distribution in one city or area, while others are more willing to conduct a nationwide campaign. When hiring a company to conduct a national campaign, it is important to ask about their experience and knowledge of different areas. The larger the scale of your campaign and the more cities involved, the more inefficient it will be.

Leaflet distribution is the process of putting flyers through letterboxes. While it seems simple, many things can go wrong if you don’t do your deliveries correctly. You can waste a great amount of resources.

If you are spending a considerable amount of money on designing and printing leaflets for your company, you want to make sure that you use them to their maximum potential.

A catalogue or a brochure is technically just a few leaflets stapled together into a booklet. The fundamental difference between these two types of publications is in their logistics. Catalogues are heavier, more expensive and trickier to handle. As such, the deliveries of catalogues are more expensive and run a little slower compared to standard pamphlet distribution.

A leaflet distribution campaign can be relatively simple or extraordinarily complex, depending on the goals and expectations of the client. In general, however, a local campaign of 5,000 leaflets is considered small. Larger campaigns can go into the hundreds of thousands or even millions of leaflets. This is both for UAE leaflet distribution and Dubai-area campaigns only. When deciding on how many pamphlets to print and distribute, it is good to first examine your goals. Do you want to boost sales of a specific product? Do you want to develop brand recognition in a specific place? You should keep these goals very specific and narrow for each campaign. If you have multiple things you want to achieve with your campaign, you can always run multiple campaigns over several months.

Most companies that distribute leaflets in the UAE will run some type of tracking system to ensure that you know when the deliveries are taking place and that you have proof of delivery.

Printing with a commercial printing firm can be confusing. There are many options to select from, and prices tend to escalate quickly. It is wise to ask your door drop distributor whether they have a good relationship with a printing firm. You may get a lower price for your print job as well as someone who knows the process well enough to give you advice on the technical details of your pamphlet—which should be printed on single-sided A5 paper at 150-250 gsm thickness.
