Create customized flyers and brochures

There are many compelling reasons to create and print your own flyers and brochures:

• Represent your business, organization, or event with style and professionalism.
• Be in control of the way your business is seen.
• Bypass expensive print shops and specialty stores that often require a minimum print run or charge extra for small print runs.
• Prevent waste by printing only what you need.
• Easily make changes or update content.
• With many styles and colors to choose from, HP templates make it easy to get the quality results you want.

There are several key elements to creating an effective brochure or flyer:

• Get their attention
  Create a hook or an attention-grabbing headline that will draw your audience in and pique their interest.
• Don’t bury crucial information
  Make sure the most important facts are clear and prominent, so your audience can easily find the information they need (who, what, where, when, why, etc.).
• Keep it simple
  Be sure the language in your flyer or brochure is straightforward and easy to read. If too lengthy or wordy, your audience may lose interest or miss valuable information.
• Proofread content
  Avoid spelling and grammar mistakes by taking advantage of the spelling and grammar checks on your computer's word processing application.
• Inspect the details
  Be sure to check the content of your flyer or brochure for accuracy. Incomplete or incorrect information will make your organization look unprofessional, or worse, send people to the wrong place.

An aesthetically pleasing brochure or flyer is much more likely to grab attention and get your message across. If creating your own brochure or flyer from scratch, follow these tips for a winning design:

• Use color
  Print your brochure or flyer in full color. Bold colors stand out and grab attention, and coordinating the colors of your photos, text, and background will make your messaging more cohesive.
• Add photos
  The right photos will add interest and emotion to your flyer or brochure, and can help establish the tone of your piece. Use your own photos or search for royalty-free images online.
• Use additional visual aids
  Adding informative illustrations, charts, and graphs is an effective way to clarify your message. Choose images that illustrate a point or coordinate with your written message.
• Use restraint
  Avoid losing key pieces of information in a cluttered, over-designed layout. Use discretion in your design, and don’t be afraid to leave white space. Remember—simplicity is key!
• Print on quality paper
