Gimme gimme more. Gimme more. Gimme gimme more.

I'm in the middle stages of putting together an advert to run in our local free paper. I'm using the old "you gotta speculate to accumulate" philosophy here. I'm also eternally grateful for my parents apparent 'money tree'.
The Company that I've been dealing with have finally got back to me, after endless calls and emails, to advise me that my leaflets are now done and I can collect them either later today or first thing in the morning.
So with the leaflets that I'm planning to drop over the next few weeks and the local adverts that will be running for the next 6 weeks (starting next weekend), I'm expecting my phone to be ringing off the hook. By the simple law of averages, a regular advert going into 40,000 households (so they tell me) and my leaflet dropping = some work.
I always have the option of making changes to the weekly advert if I feel like it's not working, so if the work that it generates doesn't feel like it's enough, then I shall be forced to change it to
"Will Plumb For Food", or "Naked Plumber", or perhaps both.

Will plumb for food!

Don't forget I am a top PR and marketing guru - drop me an email if there's anything I can do to help.

(currently wondering how to cause plumbing emergency, whilst simultaneously looking up Trade Descriptions Act to ensure nakedness requirements of plumber called)

"Come to clear out your pipes love". Go on, say it, say it...!

Lol, sorry, one implied nakedness pic and I've come over all unnecessary.

Please ignore me :-)

You'd think "will plumb naked for food" ought to do it.

Jo said...

Hate to dissent here but I think plumbing is definitely best done with clothes on. Too much arse in the air action for nakedness to be appropriate. Topless might work, but naked, no. Unless you're going for the specialist market...
