Leaflet Print Must Link With Leaflet Design

The type of printed leaflets you choose for your door drop campaign should be considered at the design stage. Therefore, the design and print will be aligned - with the design dictating the print, the target audience, type of business and budget, which help form this consideration.

Print Leaflets Creatively

A creative flyer design needs to be supported with creative flyer printing. Here are some ideas for printing leaflets creatively:

1. First, think of size - typically, a flyer is A5 (which is half A4 - 148mm x 210mm), but you can have a half A4 flyer length-wise, creating 105mm x 297 mm for the same price. 

2. The weight (in gsm) links to the quality or price your business is looking to convey. Generally, we recommend using a thin weight (such as 130-170gsm) if you sell low-priced items and a thick weight (such as 300-400gsm) for more premium products.

3. Next is shape. Often, estate agents have a flyer in the shape of a house. If promoting footballs, why not die-cut the flyer as a circle - link the shape to the message. 

4. How can your leaflet open up? Using folds, you can fit more content without the flyer becoming too big for a letterbox. There are multiple options: a cross fold, roll fold, maltese fold, and more. The idea is to intrigue the receiver as they gradually unfold your printed masterpiece.

5. Special finishes are great to emphasise your key message. Using spot UV or foiling, you can bring words or images to the forefront. A matt laminate (like a typical business card) is also a smart option, as it lasts longer. The quality feel will make the receiver more inclined to hang onto the flyer. 

6. Enclose the leaflet in an envelope. Historically, leaflet or letter enclosures have been associated primarily with direct mail. However, for more and more clients, enclosing flyers in an envelope or polywrapping items is becoming increasingly popular. This is very effective when you send multiple items, such as a letter and a brochure, or a booklet and a voucher. The envelope also makes your marketing appear more personal. Polywrapping is perfect if you have a booklet you don't want damaged. 

7. Finally, quality is a paramount concern. Creative flyers will look tacky and cheap if the quality is poor. As with most things, the best price is not generally the cheapest!
