subject: How To Make A Flyer - Simple Tips [print this page] Whether you have misplaced a cat, are promoting your services, or are advertising an event, the factors of an interesting flyer stay the same. Keep it concise and simple!
1.Compose a headline. This headline must not be more than 5 words. It must fit in 1 line across the page, and be placed on the center. The writing in the headline must be larger than any other writing on the flyer. You want most individuals to be capable to read it fast from about ten feet away. A lot of individuals capitalize the writings and/or emphasize the headline.
Some common headlines are:
oFound cat/dog/purse/etc.
oLost cat/dog/purse/etc.
oItem for sale
2.Add a graphic or picture. If you have access to an image or photo editing program, increase the contrast. It will make the image photo more attractable from a distance once it is printed on the paper. The image must be centered, and its area must be not more than a 3rd of the page. If you like, you can comprise 2 pictures side by side, but more than 2 is not usually needed, and will only make the flyer so cluttered, which lessens the likelihood of it getting someone's attention.
oPlacing a border is optional. Images usually do not need a border. Some graphics could benefit from a simple border.
3.Put a simple description below the photo. Keep it brief. Give emphasis to the words that might make your proposal more enticing: reliable, free, new, etc. A fine guideline is to have around five brief sentences.
4.Add your contact details. Put your first name and a telephone or cell phone number. Some individuals write this info sideways and in the form of a list, and then cut between the list products or items so individuals can rip off the contact details conveniently.
5.Make copies. Look for a local office supply store and utilize a self serve copying machine, if they have one. Colorless copies are usually much cheaper than colored copies.
