Maximizing Your Flyer Real Estate

By: Kaitlyn Miller Home | Business | Advertising


There are two ways you can make your full color flyers effective: one is to design the front page, and two, utilize the back page. That’s two ways.

Believe it or not, any professional flyer printing company would tell you that both sides of your full color flyers are prime real estate when it comes to getting the message out to your target clients. But many make the mistake of using only the front part to advertise their stuff.

If you really want to have a successful print ad, you have to use all available space to tell your story. And it also doesn’t hurt if you could apply these tips to your flyer printing pieces:

Your Headline
This is the very first thing that your target readers would see when they look at your ad. What you write in your headline determines whether your readers would stay to get more of your message.

That is why you don’t put your company’s name in your headline, unless of course you’re trying to announce a change in address. This is a fact that you should learn to accept: your target audience don’t give a hoot about your name or about your organization. All they care about are the benefits that you can provide. It doesn’t matter to them at all whether you have a big organization or that you have the best experts; if your headline doesn’t express your benefits, your readers would just consider your ad as junk. Your company name would be better off in the contact information section of your ad along with your signature.

Your Fonts and Typefaces
If you just have text in your ad, then you only need to have a maximum of 5 font changes. But if you add a logo to it, then it goes down to a maximum of 4 times that you change your typeface. This means that you’re only allowed to change your font †make it bold, or italic, or put an underline to it †for that amount of times provided. In fact, most graphic designers would suggest that you hold on to your underlined fonts as much as you can. It should be applied sparingly and only when it is really necessary.

The reason for this limit is that the more changes you make to your fonts, the more your target audience would be able to emphasize that change. Indeed, it only adds to the confusion and provides that clutter in your ad. This makes it easier for your target readers to consider your ad as junk. They just don’t have time to read something that they still need to figure out.

So the next time you create your flyers, consider these things and you’ll most likely have an effective marketing tool in your hands to promote your business.
