Are there any rules about handing fliers out in NYC? (health care, ticket)

[BingCherry]

I work independently for the nation's #1 health care and dental plan company and I wanted to hand out fliers in Manhattan. Are there any rules about that? I ask because there seems to be rules right down to the way a NYer breathes or they can be slapped with a ticket or have to pay a fine.

Considering that I see people handing out fliers for so-called psychics, I doubt there are any rules.

The question is, if you consider who hands out fliers on sidewalks - is that the best way to get clients? It wouldn't make a favorable impression on me.
