Easy To Make Brochures
1. Create a Strategic Plan. Before anything else, has your company gone through a strategic plan? Do you have vision-mission? Do you have objectives or thrusts? Is your company clear on what it is about and what you want in the future? If it is still a bit hazy then you might want to consider going through strategic planning to get everything in perspective. You need to be concrete with where you want your company to go to. This will help you in your creation of the brochures as one of the important things you should include. 2. Explain what your company is about. Once you are more concrete with the thrust of your company you can easily explain what your company is about. Have a short summary and include your vision-mission, objectives etc. Remember that your brochure is just one paged so keep the text to a minimum. 3. Visioning (colors, pictures etc). Think about your brochure and play with it in your mind. You will have a general sense of how you want it to look so try to make a sketch on where you want certain text and pictures, what colors you want as the background and as the fonts. Some companies nowadays use a beautiful picture as the background and lay the text on top, be careful however because your text may not be visible if your picture is very rich in colors. Place pictures about your company that easily showcases what your group is about without having to say a word. Keep your pictures to a minimum as well and take into consideration that brochures have limited space. 4. Brochure Size. There are different sizes you can choose from but the most general are the: 8.5x5.5, 8.5x11, 8.5x14 or 11x17.
