Brochure Design Best Practices

Front Cover Impact - Your front cover has 3 seconds to grab attention. Use bold headlines with clear benefit statements, high-quality hero images, and minimal text. Include your logo but keep it secondary to the main message.

Panel Sequence Planning - Readers unfold brochures in a specific order. For tri-folds: Panel 1 (front cover), Panel 2 (inside left), Panel 3 (inside center), Panel 4 (inside right), Panel 5 (back inside), Panel 6 (back cover). Plan content accordingly.

White Space Usage - Don't fill every inch with content. Professional brochures use generous white space (30-40% of total area) to create breathing room, emphasize key points, and prevent overwhelming readers.

High-Quality Photography - Use professional photos at minimum 300 DPI resolution. Avoid stretched, pixelated, or low-quality images. Invest in professional photography or use premium stock photos for credibility.

Clear Call-to-Action - Every brochure needs specific next steps: "Visit Our Website," "Call for Free Consultation," "Schedule a Tour," "Request a Quote." Place CTAs on back panel and throughout content.

Contact Information Prominence - Include complete contact details on the back panel: phone number, email, website, physical address, social media, and QR code. Make it easy for interested prospects to reach you.

Printing & Production Tips

Paper Stock Selection - Use 80 lb gloss text (216 gsm) for professional brochures with vibrant colors and photo quality. Matte finishes (100 lb text) work well for sophisticated, upscale brands. Budget options include 70 lb gloss text.

Coating & Finishing Options - Gloss coating makes colors pop and is fingerprint-resistant. Matte/satin coating provides elegant, subtle finish. Soft-touch coating creates premium tactile experience. UV spot coating highlights specific elements.

Professional Printing Services - For 500+ brochures, use commercial printers like PrintPlace, VistaPrint, or local print shops. Bulk printing reduces per-unit cost to $0.30-$1.00 per brochure depending on options.

Folding Precision - Professional folding machines ensure crisp, accurate folds. For small quantities (under 100), folding bone tools help create sharp creases. Score heavy papers before folding to prevent cracking.

Bleed and Trim Awareness - Extend all background colors and images 0.125" beyond trim lines. Keep important text and logos at least 0.25" inside trim lines to prevent cutting off critical content.

Proof Before Mass Production - Always order a single proof copy before printing 500+ brochures. Check colors, alignment, folds, and overall appearance under natural lighting. Corrections are cheap before printing, expensive after.

Distribution Strategies

Direct Mail Campaigns - Mail brochures to targeted mailing lists. Tri-fold brochures fit standard #10 envelopes, reducing postage costs. Include compelling envelope teaser copy to increase open rates.

Trade Shows & Events - Distribute brochures at industry conferences, trade shows, networking events, and professional gatherings. Use brochure holders for organized display at booths.

In-Store & Office Displays - Place brochures in reception areas, waiting rooms, checkout counters, and point-of-sale displays. Use acrylic brochure holders for professional presentation.

Partner Distribution - Exchange brochures with complementary businesses. Real estate agents partner with mortgage brokers, wedding venues with florists, fitness centers with health food stores.

Digital Distribution - Convert brochures to PDFs for email marketing, website downloads, and social media sharing. Create page-turn digital brochures using FlipHTML5 or Issuu for interactive online experiences.

Community Locations - Place brochures at visitor centers, chambers of commerce, hotels, coffee shops, libraries, and community bulletin boards in high-traffic areas.
