Marketize

Marketize is the UK's first GPS-verified leaflet distribution marketplace, connecting businesses with verified local distributors through a platform that handles every part of the process — campaign planning, live delivery tracking, payment protection, proof of completion and dispute resolution — in one place.

The leaflet distribution industry has operated for decades without any reliable way for clients to verify that the campaigns they paid for were actually delivered. Campaigns under-delivered, completion reports built to look convincing without evidencing anything, and honest distributors with no way to prove they had done the job properly. Marketize was built by a team with 64 years of ground-level industry experience to make all of that impossible.

HOW IT WORKS

Businesses post campaigns, local distributors submit proposals, and both sides connect, communicate and transact entirely within the platform. Built-in instant messaging means clients and distributors can discuss job specifics and resolve questions in real time without leaving the app.

Every campaign is tracked via live GPS, recorded continuously on the distributor's device and synced automatically when connection is restored — no gaps in low-signal areas. Distributors take geo-tagged, time-stamped photos mid-route, pinned to the map at the exact coordinates where they were taken. Every undeliverable address is logged at the time, at the address. The completed proof-of-delivery report — GPS route, timestamps, photos and non-delivery log — goes directly to the client with no intermediary touching it on the way.

Payment is held in an escrow-like system from the moment a campaign starts and released only when the client is satisfied. If a dispute arises, Marketize acts as a neutral third party and resolves it on the evidence.

Letterbox counting, route planning, demographic targeting, QR code response tracking, instant messaging, smart notifications and consultation distribution for planning applications and civic communications. Tools that normally sit behind expensive subscriptions are free on Marketize from day one.

The industry-standard non-delivery allowance of 5–10% of addresses in any given area is accounted for honestly from the outset. Response rates typically improve by up to 10% through proper demographic targeting.
