There are a lot of templates advertised on internet, but you have to pay for most of them. The free ones are rare and you can’t know in advance if they will work as advertised. It pays to be cautious about downloads from unfamiliar sources. You might consider talking to a local printer to see if he could supply you with something appropriate but again this requires an expenditure.
Do you know anyone who already has a business flyer and wouldn’t mind letting you adapt the template to make your handyman flyer?
If you are familiar with Microsoft Office Word, it’s not that complicated to set up something basic for yourself. You can take a standard 8.5 x 11 page and a landscape layout, set up three columns and compose your flyer to fit the first one. Then just copy the text over to the next two, print and cut page for three handouts to post or distribute.
Have you considered advertising on community web boards? The more exposure the better, obviously. If you need keywords, some of the most popular would be "home repair, maintenance, renovations, alterations, remodeling, general maintenance, tiling, painting, handyman, concrete, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, roofing, appliance repair”.
Here’s a link to a free template for one type of flyer that has the advantage of pull-off phone number tabs at the bottom. People are lazy and more people will have your number if you make it easy like this: www.wnyhandyman.com/flyer-template-with-tabs/
