Make certain that the coupon clearly states the offer’s limitations as well as the deadlines. Don’t forget to include the payment options, mailing address, credit card information and other vital details.
Using Colors and Images Wisely:
Take a picture of the product or establishment you want to promote, or you can draw an image that is suitable for the service. The choice of image is up to you but it has to be stunning, one that will make people take a second look. Besides the headline, the graphic image you choose will serve as the flyer’s center point. Don’t make the image too large that it overshadows your headline, but one that will complement it.
Next, you need to arrange your flyer so that there are areas, borders and boxes with contrasting colors. It must be emphasized that your flyer must be filled to the brim by graphics and / or text. The purpose of the image and text is to bring into attention your service or product. Too many graphics will just confuse people and the message will be lost. To make sure, arrange the graphics so that there are white spaces and breathing room so to speak.
Aside from making sure that the graphic image is laid out properly, you also need to pay attention to the paragraphs in the flyer. Ensure that there are no spelling or grammar errors and that the salient points will be understood easily.
Highlight both titles and subtitles but do not use all caps. It will seem you are shouting and they are very difficult to read. Also you need to ensure that you use no more than a couple of typefaces so information will be easier to comprehend. Laying out will be very easy to do as computes can take of that.
