Hello Crete Style, Try Local Garden Centers, Offer to put a 40 - 50 sq/m area down in 3-4 different patterns and colours, with a good sign board,

Also on your leaflets / local advertising you can say you have an exclusive show site at ............. Garden Center, 

I'm aware of many companies around the uk that have done this and have had a great response,

Good Luck ! ! !

We have recently started and all of our work is from the local paper and leafleting. every time we have leafleted we have got one or two quotes from this. which i dont think it to bad. we advertise in the local paper every other week which costs about 80 each advert. had quite alot of work from that. dont stretch your area to big. keep advertising in the same places becuase people will start to recognise you.

Leaflets do work but if I delivered 500 1 would expect no more than 2-4 enquiries.

Send out leaflets when your quiet.

No one can ever determine how much work you are going to get from a single piece of advertisment. it will depend on how good your advert is against all of the others and also how many people pick up the phone and ring Your number...

What I would say from my experience you should always get enough work from it to cover the cost no matter what...

A £500 advert I would consider paid for after getting 1 job from it..

If I didnt get a yellow pages ad to pay for itself I would get a job as a taxi driver LOL
