Thinking of the right brochure angle
The first step into proper brochure printing is its message angle. You will always have to think of the right angle for your color brochure message. This usually relates to the larger promotional or marketing campaign involved in printing your brochure. For example, your travel brochure can have the leisure angle to entice people who want a great vacation, or an "affordable vacation" angle to get the more budget conscious traveler. If your campaign is about food, you can go for the healthy living angle, or the wonderful and delicious lifestyle angle. Each choice corresponds to your main message for the campaign so choose your brochure angles wisely.
Writing the best content
Now, when we go to the content itself, you must be careful and write in the proper language of your audience. For example, the language and lingo of the youth is very different from the middle-aged crowd. This means that the best content for each would be different depending on the use of words, the tone and the style. The best catalogs usually have written content optimized for the possible market demographics that may want to buy its products. So try to match your content for your main consumers. You will get better results.
Adding the right images

Tell them to take as many images as possible so that you can have plenty of choices on what to use for the color catalog. Check of course if the images are appropriate for the whole theme of your catalog.
