Graphic Design Tips: 6 Pointers For A Successful Brochure

1. Use White Space.  Customers - whether they're your boss or a friend - want to cram as much information as possible onto a page. Sometimes you just have to know when to say no, though. A little white space space will go a long way to getting your information read.

 

2. Use Boxes.  Boxes help to emphasize information such as testimonials.  It is a fact that people read information in boxes 2 times as often as text without a box...just don't overdo it or you will lose your effect.

 

3.  Use Only 2 or 3 Fonts.  Too many fonts becomes distracting.  It's that simple.

 

4. Tie Headings to Text  Headlines should be visually tied to the text they head. That means you want very little space between your headline and the following text, and a larger space between the end of the text and the next headline.

 

5. Don't Use Too Much Clipart.  Too much clipart in a brochure is a dead giveaway that your marketing piece was done at home.  Most designers have access to large collections of stock photo's and should be able to help you find the perfect picture for your brochure.

 

6. Proofread.  It is more than just running spell check on your text. Make sure both you and your client proof the brochure.
