Which are the most popular stocks for brochures?: brochures are usually printed on glossy paper or cardstock. Uncoated stocks are less popular for the simple reason that the images print nicer on glossy paper.  Uncoated stocks are necessary if any writing is necessary in the brochure. It could be a space to take notes or a tear-up flap that gets used for different purposes.

Why should I invest in brochures for my project? A brochure takes a life of its own. In time, it can be found by your clients, and rigger them to act by calling or clicking. Brochures are cheap and open-up a good source of business opportunities.  

They have Many Names! Sometimes, according to geography, some people know them as "pamphlets" or "leaflets"

 

Custom Brochure Printing

There is not a standard as to what information and data to include in a brochure, so within the 6 panels of a tri-fold brochure, there are plenty of opportunities to customize the message and guide the readers in an effective way.

Information that is typically part of a brochure: What type of information is usually included in brochures?

  • Store and Brand Identity is a must.: Introducing your company to prospects in the proper way is essential.
  • Sales Brochure: Many brochures contain pre-sales  and ordering information
  • Support and Professional Service Brochures:
  • Technical data: Sometimes the brochure will become a thank-you piece for orders placed, and a reminder of where to find resources and /or services for the product or service transacted
  • Sales literature and specifications
  • How-to documents
  • Product information that is not as detailed as that you would expect it from an instructional manual, but accurate enough to serve light technical data
  • Promotional Offers: You can advertise discounts, bundles, or push new services that you offer. 
  • Credibility: Every time there is an interaction with your audience, you want them to view you and your company as an authority in the topic. Testimonials, awards, and industry recognition is information that you always want to share in your brochures and website.

Distribution of Brochures

A good strategy to distribute your brochures and get them to the hands of your targeted audience is essential at the planning state. 

Good planning will help you determine the ideal number of pieces to print and will help you to design your brochure so that it generates the impact that you are looking to obtain.

As part of the content and use planning, the distribution opportunities are important, If you are sending brochures by mail, you will need to budget for that expense and maybe order envelopes to insert the brochures. 

If the distribution is at a trade show, you might need, in addition to the brochures, a way to grab the attention of visitors so that they become aware of your exhibit and decide to stop at your place.

if the brochures are to be distributed at points-of-sale, make sure that you provide brochure holders. 

Simple details can make your campaign successful or to become a failure.

About brochures

Typical Size of Brochures: There are 3 typical sizes that are used commercially. Those sizes are letter size, legal size, and tabloid.
The most popular size is letter size, equivalent to 8.5"x11" and a close sibling of the A4 International size.

Restaurant menus are usually printed on 11"x17" paper because that creates additional room for pictures and details.

Brochures for properties are usually printed on heavier cardstock. They are fancier in the eye of the clients.

Critical information to have in your Brochures:

  • Headline: A powerful headline that tells the story and is welcoming.
  • Product / Service Data about the product or service that you are offering,
  • Contact information both for electronic contact and physical address, and a clear arrangement of the information.

Stock for brochures: Most of the time, people want the brochures printed on glossy stock, such as 80# gloss or 100# gloss text, being the latter one the most popular. 100# gloss text has a professional look and feel and it holds straight to the reader.

Folding of brochures: This is an interesting area of knowledge since you can accomplish different effects in the audience by designing your brochures differently.

The classic folding for a brochure is a tri-fold, which is typical for commercial and business brochures, where the company presents the products and services that they provide. 

Another very interesting use of a different way of folding brochures is when you want to present information that needs to be in a certain sequence. For example, when there is a step-by-step set of instructions, a Z fold could be very helpful. Just based on the way in which the document folds, you are guiding the audience to follow a certain reading sequence that in turn, helps the audience take advantage of the information printed. Think about "how-to" questions when assembling a product, or when following steps to achieve a certain result.

Quick Turnaround & Good Customer Service. I had a very last minute job and ColorCopiesUSA was able to complete my prints quickly. They made sure to communicate when they had a question about my print files to ensure I was getting exactly what I wanted. I would definitely recommend. Thank you!

Color Copiers made me an awesome table cloth for trade shows and when I mailed it home after a trade show the post office or ups lost it and blamed each other so I had them make me another tablecloth.

Great Service. I had questions so I called after I placed my order and they were super helpful. They sent emails for approval and I received my order much faster than I expected. Qualify is great - print is a little small but that is because of the file type I sent them.

Very Good Experience. Quality was very good. Price was much better than others I checked - even with shipping. I made a mistake on my shipping selection on my order and they were very helpful in getting it corrected and the job sent out quickly.

Their Mission Is To Never Have a Dissatisfied Customer. Now that we're retired, my wife and I have been doing quite a bit of local and foreign traveling. After each trip, we put together a trip report to document what we did and what we saw. We've tried a number of local and web based printers but have never been very satisfied. Unfortunately, we end up with whatever we get. Frankly, the printed document we received back from Colorcopiesusa didn't please us either. I sent them a note explaining my dissatisfaction and to my surprise, I immediately received a note back telling me that their mission is to never to have a dissatisfied customer and that they would be willing to do a reprint based upon the details of my note. In a day (or two at the most) I received digital images of the new pages of my document with a note asking me to review them and give my OK. The photos were lighter and the colors truer per my request. I received the reprinted document a few days later, and I'm pleased to report, the document was really nice. Now I know what instructions to give with my next order, and I will most definitely have Colorcopiesusa do the next printing.

A++ to Color Copies. I've used Color Copies for years. Their price for the quality of product can't be beat. The quality and clarity of photos is superior. They are fast too!
