What's Happening in Secunda, Mpumalanga…

We all know what leaflets are; printed, small sheets of paper that contain concise messages and communicate information clearly and effectively. Leaflets are not suitable for all businesses, though, and serve a specific purpose. Here is some information to help before ordering your leaflets:

What Is The Difference Between Flyers And Leaflets?

These two types of Print advertising were once considered separate, but the word is used more interchangeably now. A leaflet is a folded sheet that allows for more content to be printed on a smaller area. Flyers could be printed on one side of a single sheet. 

What is the Standard Size for a Leaflet?

Flyers are most commonly printed in A5 (half the size of A4). These flyers are easy to distribute yet still contain a lot of information. You can reduce the font size, but it might be challenging to read. Too large leaflets may be more expensive and difficult to distribute. Even so, you have the option to choose from a variety of sizes depending on your campaign's requirements. You can, for example, choose a smaller size if leaflets are included in product Packaging.

What Should a Leaflet Have?

It is essential to consider what your leaflet should communicate and how it will be distributed. Your message should be clear and easily understood. Therefore, you need to carefully consider your leaflet's size, layout, and font. These are the essential elements of quality leaflets:

1. Consistent design.
2. Headers and subheaders.
3. Text that is easy to understand and read.
4. High-quality images.
5. Bullet points.
6. Call to action.
7. Name and details of your business. 

How Should Leaflets Be Distributed?

Leaflets can be distributed in many different ways:

• Face-to-face handouts.
• Drop-offs at mailboxes and businesses.
• Included in product packaging.
• Left at businesses.
• Attached to other documents.
• Included in magazines and newspapers.
• There are many other benefits.
