However, the designing process or step in the production of the flyer can get tricky. Know that if you can’t come up with a design that is good enough to attract people, you won’t gain anything from your promotions. However, if you know how to make your design good and interesting, you can actually gain a lot of new customers and create more exposure regarding your brand and product.

Don’t worry, below you will find a few tips and information regarding what’s important when it comes to flyer design, what should be done, and what should be avoided.

1. Flyer Flow

People have common reading flow; top to bottom, and left to right or the opposite way in certain countries. What’s most important is the top to bottom aspect. As people progress, their focus will lessen. This matters because now you know that you have to put the key information on the upper part to the middle of your flyer. If you group the information into several boxes, then these boxes must be arranged according to the flow so that people can easily know where to read next. If not, they will get confused and you won’t be able to convey all the important messages.

2. Content

Only put information that is relevant. Even though there may be a lot of things you want to say in your flyer, try to keep everything to a minimum while still making sure that everything is easy to understand and informative. Try to utilize bullets and numberings as you deliver the information in short straightforward sentences.

3. Insert graphics or illustrations

Using pictures to help you deliver the content of your promotion into your flyer is really great because a lot of people are more visually oriented and they don’t really fancy reading. You can try to use infographics that are popular lately for its simplicity and effectivity. However, always remember that any graphics or images that are used in the design of your flyers printing come in a high resolution of at least 300 dpi so that it won’t get stretched or pixelated in the printing process.

4. Proofreading

One last important tip is to make sure that everything that is displayed on your flyer is mistake-free, especially when it comes to the content. Proofreading is an important step that should never be skipped. In proofreading, make sure that you go through everything that is written and make sure that they don’t have any spelling errors, grammatical mistakes, or even false information so that you can be confident enough of the capability of your flyer to deliver effective messages toward your target audience in your promotions.
