So you want to be a flyer distributor, do you? That’s all very well but which company should you work for (or not work for if you’re going freelance)? This is the question I found myself asking when I first started doing distribution work.
It can be tough because they are lots of flyer distribution businesses out there to choose from. Maybe too many. Logically, you will want pick an employer that will pay you a competitive wage. It’s also good if they can offer many other benefits that their rivals can’t.
Of course, you want to get the biggest rewards for your distribution work. You’re no idiot (unlike me). You should apply this kind of attitude to every job.
It’s important to take your time during the application process. Don’t just accept the first job that falls in your lap. I know from experience that there are great and not so great companies out there so be careful.
Many leaflet distribution businesses find that 80% of clients return to make repeat orders after the first time. You couldn’t ask for a better, more glowing statistic than this in my opinion.
This is how you know it works. You also know that there will always be a decent workload for someone like you. It’s ripe for the picking, let me tell you.
Allow me to walk you through what to watch out for when applying for jobs. I will also show you a handful of top companies.
Which flyer distribution companies will employ me?
There are so many flyer distribution companies who always need new distributors. Here are a handful of some of the best employers you can apply to:
- wikaniko
- whistl
- dor2dor
- indeed
- mr flyer
- total jobs
- gumtree
- royal mail
- letterbox distribution
- monster
- jogpost
- direct leaflets
- compass distribution
If you don’t want to work for anyone then you don’t have to. You can work on a freelance basis instead. Try advertising your distribution services using websites like Fiverr. This should help you increase your customers and earnings.
which are the most popular distribution employers?
It all depends on the type of distribution. The popularity of employers is different between flyer, leaflet, catalog and poster delivery. Some companies just specialize in one area and so on.
Betterware and Kleeneze are two of the most well-known catalog distribution companies in the UK. Catalog usage is slowly dying off but there should be plenty of other options available to you.
You can deliver flyers for fast food restaurants. Unsigned bands might pay you to put up posters for them outside music venues. You can even earn money handing out leaflets on the street for local gyms, for instance.
How do I know which employers are reliable?
There are a few scams out there when it comes to flyer distribution work. Be sure to do your homework beforehand. If you have any friends who do this sort of work then you can ask them for an employer recommendation.
What I’m about to say is the same thing that I say for any sort of employer, but here it comes anyway. The best thing you can do is check reviews and testimonials of current or former employees online.
From my experience, this will give you a general indication of whether or not the employer is trustworthy and reputable.
Don’t just read one review from a single disgruntled former distributor. For all you know, they could have been fired for smoking weed while using the flyers as rolling paper. Scan through lots of them. This way you can figure out a general average rating for the flyer distribution company you want to work for.

How much do wages differ between distribution employers?
Why should I apply to the best flyer distribution employers? Companies can charge their clients more for their delivery services than rivals do. These employers will be more likely pass on some of this extra money to the distributor.
This is in order to pay their employees a lot more generously too. Their incoming revenue will be higher than rival companies so it makes sense.
I suggest that you try to target these high-paying employers first when applying for a flyer distribution job. This is so that you can maximize your potential earnings. Applicants will be fighting tooth and nail for these leaflet distribution jobs. Get in there before it’s too late!
There is also a huge contrast in earnings. It’s especially true when you compare between commission and non-commission based distribution jobs. You might be distributing catalogs or something that requires a sales transaction. You will then be making more money through these additional bonuses.
Search for the flyer distribution companies that offer sales commission to their workers on top of base pay. You can then increase your earnings.
Are there any scams around flyer distribution jobs?
You need to be aware of scams in order to avoid wasting your time and money. Some illegitimate companies will ask you for upfront fees (which is usually a red flag).
You might view these fees as a little suspect (at least to me anyway). 9 out of 10 times this is a con. Certain employers will even refuse to pay you for the work that you complete. Flyer distribution businesses can scam distributors in multiple different ways.
I should warn you not to jump in the deep end. Don’t just start working for just any old leaflet distribution employer. Scam employers are notoriously difficult to contact. Take it as a warning if you are having trouble finding contact details for an employer.
I hope this information has given you some added confidence when it comes to applying for flyer distribution jobs.
We can learn that salaries vary quite a lot between different employers. It’s best to compare and contrast between companies. We also have a good idea when it comes to identifying the difference between reputable employers and scammers.
I recommend your next step should be to research some more flyer distribution employers. Do this on top of the ones I already mentioned. You never know when a great, new employer will crop up.
We know about a few good employers too. Ever wanted to know what a flyer distributor actually does all day? Check out the answer to the question of What Are The Duties & Responsibilities Of A Flyer Distributor?
