Abstract

The leaflet or flyer sheet is provided with a fold, bend or pleat which forms a hook profile, enabling the sheet to hung from or in a letterbox. A perforation line or pre-fold can be provided along the intended fold line.

Description

Werbeprospekte und alle anderen Flyer, die in Brief- und Postkästen geworfen werden, sind entweder einseitige oder mehrseitige, bedruckte falzbare Materialien, die beliebig nach Form und Farbe gestaltbar sind. Alle liegen verschlossen im Briefkasten. Ihr Vorhandensein ist von außen regelmäßig nicht erkennbar, da sie von der übrigen Post verdeckt werden. Auch besondere farbliche Gestaltungen ziehen insoweit nur eingeschränkt erhöhte Aufmerksamkeit nach sich, da die Prospekte insbesondere durch Zeitungen meist vollständig verdeckt werden. Wird die Zeitung nicht aufgeschlagen, wird häufig der Werbeprospekt oder Flyer ganz übersehen.
Ziel der Werbung ist es, die Aufmerksamkeit möglichst vieler Leute auf den Inhalt des Werbeprospektes oder Flyers zu lenken. Briefkastenwerbung konnte dabei bisher nur den Besitzer des Briefkastens bzw. sonstige Mitbewohner, denen die Post zugänglich ist, erreichen. Von dritter Seite war die Werbesendung bisher nicht wahrzunehmen, es sei denn, der Prospekt ragte zufällig aus einem bereits vollen Briefkasten heraus.
Werbeprospekte haben daher das Problem, dass sie unterschiedlichste Formen, Farben und Größen haben müssen, um aufzufallen. Das verwendete Material wird immer teurer und aufwendiger. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit zwischen sonstigen Post- bzw. Prospektsendungen in dem gesamten "Werbungswust" aufzufallen, ist trotz Verwendung verschiedenster Formen und farblicher Gestaltungen entsprechend gering.
Advertising brochures and all other flyers that are thrown in letter and mailboxes are either single-sided or multi-page, printed foldable materials that can be designed in any shape and color. All are locked in the mailbox. Their presence is usually not recognizable from the outside, as they are hidden by the rest of the post. Special color designs also only attract limited attention in this respect, since the brochures are mostly completely covered, especially by newspapers. If the newspaper is not opened, the advertising brochure or flyer is often completely overlooked.
The aim of advertising is to draw the attention of as many people as possible to the content of the advertising brochure or flyer. Mailbox advertising has so far only been able to reach the owner of the mailbox or other flatmates to whom the post is accessible. Up until now, the third-party was unable to perceive the advertising mail, unless the prospectus stuck out of an already full mailbox.
Advertising brochures therefore have the problem that they have to have different shapes, colors and sizes in order to attract attention. The material used is becoming more and more expensive and complex. The likelihood of being noticed in the entire "advertising mess" between other postal or prospectus mailings is correspondingly low, despite the use of the most varied of shapes and colors.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, durch eine technische Veränderung des Prospektes oder Flyers, diesen so im oder am Brief- und Postkasten zu positionieren, dass er nicht im Kasten verschwindet, sondern herausragt (siehe Beispiel 1 und 2) und von jedem Vorbeigehenden wahrgenommen werden kann. Alle Prospekte und Werbesendungen hatten diese Eigenschaft in der Vergangenheit nicht.The invention is therefore based on the object by a technical change in the Brochures or flyers to position them in or on the mail and post box so that they does not disappear in the box, but protrudes (see examples 1 and 2) and from everyone Passersby can be perceived. All brochures and commercials had this property has not in the past.

Diese Aufgabe wird in verfahrenstechnischer Hinsicht wie folgt gelöst:
Es handelt sich um ein Prospekt oder einen Flyer, egal in welcher Größe, Form oder Gestaltung, der durch einen Knick (Beispiel 1 und 2, (a)) oder Falz aus dem Brief- oder Postkasten ragt und so von außen zu sehen ist. Beispiel 1, 2 und 3 der Zeichnung zeigen jeweils in Vorderansicht und Seitenquerschnitt beispielhaft zwei unterschiedliche Arten von Briefkästen, an bzw. in denen ein vorher geknickter Prospekt hängt und so von außen sichtbar ist. Der Prospekt hält sich von alleine, indem er an dem abgeknickten Teil des Prospektes hängt. Dabei kann sowohl der kleinere (Beispiel 1, (a)) als auch der größere (Beispiel 2, (a)) abgeknickte Teil des Prospektes nach draußen ragen. Wesentlich ist nur, das er von selbst im bzw. am Briefkasten hängt. Der auf diese Weise am Briefkasten hängende Prospekt behindert dabei nicht den Einwurf weiterer Post, Prospekte oder ähnliches in den Briefkasten. Er ist auch einfach zu entfernen. Allerdings dadurch, dass der Prospekt am Briefkastenschlitz durch den Kniff verhakt (Beispiele 1, 2, 3 (b)) ist, wird er gesehen und angefasst. Durch die Verhakung am Briefkasten wird der Prospekt regelmäßig extra - und nicht in einem Griff zusammen mit der übrigen Post - entfernt werden müssen.
Durch diese Art der Briefkastenwerbung fallen Prospekte grundsätzlich ins Auge. Der Empfänger muss den so angebrachten Prospekt oder Flyer berühren. Er sieht ihn zwangsläufig im Gegensatz zu den üblichen bekannten Postwurfsendungen, die zwischen der sonstigen Post im Briefkasten verdeckt liegen. Darüber hinaus ist der aus dem Briefkasten herausragende Teil des Prospektes (Beispiele 1, 2, 3 (a)) für jeden, der am Briefkasten vorbeigeht, sichtbar. Dies wurde durch bisher verwendete Werbeprospekte nicht erreicht, da sie im Briefkasten verschwanden. Im Übrigen kann bei Gestaltung des Prospektes berücksichtigt werden, wie der abgeknickte Teil, also der Aufhänger (Beispiele 1, 2, 3 (a)) aus dem Briefkasten heraushängen wird. Die dort aufgedruckte Schrift kann z.B. so gestaltet werden, dass sie von außen lesbar ist. Es wird dadurch eine Art Plakatwirkung erreicht. Die Briefkastenwerbung ist auf diese Weise für jeden, der vorbeigeht, sichtbar. Die Werbenachricht erreicht so nicht wie bisher nur den kleinen Kreis der Postempfänger, sondern jeden, der auf den Briefkasten sieht. Die Werbewirksamkeit der Briefkastenwerbung vervielfacht sich entsprechend.
Der Falz oder Knick kann bei kleinen Stück- bzw Druckzahlen manuell ausgeführt werden. Auch können die Prospekte oder Flyer bei kleinen Stückzahlen durch Perforierung manuell geknickt werden. Es bietet sich jedoch an bei Stückzahlen über 1000, die Prospekte an den bestimmten Stellen (Beispiele 1, 2, 3 (b)) maschinell vorzufalzen. Der Verteiler hat so bedeutend weniger Arbeit und die Zeit der Verteilung ist die eines einfachen Werbeprospektes.
Das Prospekt kann alle Formen haben. Es kann sich um ein einzelnes Blatt handeln (hier als "Flyer" bezeichnet) oder um einen mehrseitigen oder beliebig zusammengefalteten Prospekt. Alle Seiten können bedruckt werden. Der Vorteil der Erfindung wird optimal ausgenutzt, wenn die Vorderseite des heraushängenden Teils des Prospektes (Beispiele 1, 2, 3 (a)) die Hauptaufmerksamkeit für alle erregt, jedoch ist dies egal, da der Prospekt durch das Heraushängen jedenfalls das Interesse weckt, zumindest regelmäßig extra herausgenommen werden muss.
Die Grammzahl oder das Material des Prospektes ist nicht entscheidend. Wesentlich ist, dass der Prospekt aus eigener Kraft durch den Knick hängen bleibt. Das setzt nicht voraus, dass der abgeknickte Teil, der aus dem Briefkasten heraushängt, leichter ist, als der im Briefkasten hängende Teil, da der Knick eine Hakenwirkung entfaltet. Diese Art der Briefkastenwerbung kann deshalb bei jeder Art Briefkasten Verwendung finden, der über den üblichen Einwurfschlitz oder eine Einwurfklappe verfügt (vgl. Beispiel 1 und 2). Dabei wird die beabsichtigte Werbewirkung auch erreicht, wenn der Prospekt, wie im Beispiel 3 gezeigt, im Briefkasten auf dessen Boden oder auf sonstiger Post aufliegt.
Im Übrigen kann der Prospekt beliebig abgeknickt werden, je nachdem, welcher Gestaltungseffekt erreicht werden soll.
From a procedural point of view, this task is solved as follows:
It is a brochure or a flyer, regardless of its size, shape or design, which protrudes from the letter or post box by a crease (example 1 and 2, (a)) or fold and can be seen from the outside. Examples 1, 2 and 3 of the drawing each show two different types of mailboxes in front view and side cross section, on or in which a previously bent brochure hangs and is thus visible from the outside. The prospectus stays on its own by hanging on the bent part of the prospectus. Both the smaller (example 1, (a)) and the larger (example 2, (a)) bent part of the brochure can protrude outwards. The only important thing is that it hangs itself in or on the mailbox. The prospectus hanging on the mailbox in this way does not hinder the insertion of further mail, brochures or the like into the mailbox. It is also easy to remove. However, due to the fact that the brochure is snagged at the letterbox slot by the gimmick (Examples 1, 2, 3 (b)), it is seen and touched. Because of the hooking on the mailbox, the prospectus will have to be removed regularly - and not in one go with the rest of the mail.
This type of mailbox advertising basically catches the eye of prospectuses. The recipient must touch the attached brochure or flyer. He sees it inevitably in contrast to the usual known direct mail items that are hidden between the other mail in the mailbox. In addition, the part of the prospectus protruding from the mailbox (Examples 1, 2, 3 (a)) is visible to anyone who walks past the mailbox. This has not been achieved with advertising brochures previously used, since they disappeared into the mailbox. In addition, when designing the prospectus, it can be taken into account how the kinked part, i.e. the hanger (examples 1, 2, 3 (a)) will hang out of the mailbox. The font printed there can be designed so that it can be read from the outside. This creates a kind of poster effect. In this way, mailbox advertising is visible to everyone who walks by. As before, the advertising message does not only reach the small group of mail recipients, but everyone who looks at the mailbox. The advertising effectiveness of mailbox advertising multiplies accordingly.
The fold or crease can be carried out manually for small quantities or print numbers. The brochures or flyers can also be manually folded for small quantities by perforation. However, it is advisable to pre-fold the brochures at specific points (examples 1, 2, 3 (b)) for quantities over 1000. The distributor has so much less work and the time of distribution is that of a simple advertising brochure.
The prospectus can take any form. It can be a single sheet (referred to here as a "flyer") or a multi-page or arbitrarily folded prospectus. All pages can be printed on. The advantage of the invention is optimally exploited if the front of the hanging part of the prospectus (Examples 1, 2, 3 (a)) attracts the main attention for everyone, but this does not matter, since the prospectus at least arouses interest by hanging it out must be removed regularly.
The number of grams or the material of the brochure is not decisive. It is essential that the prospectus gets stuck under its own steam. This does not require that the kinked part hanging out of the mailbox is lighter than the part hanging in the mailbox, since the kink has a hook effect. This type of mailbox advertising can therefore be used with any type of mailbox that has the usual slot or flap (see Examples 1 and 2). The intended advertising effect is also achieved if the prospectus, as shown in example 3, rests in the mailbox on its floor or on other mail.
Incidentally, the prospectus can be bent as desired, depending on the design effect that is to be achieved.
