Market Perfect Brochures: Is It Possible?
Let me give you the truth about brochures. It is impossible to print market perfect brochures for business. This is a fact. Perfection is impossible in any dynamic environment, even in marketing brochures. However, I can tell you that you can get close to being market perfect if you do know the right kind of brochure printing and design. That is why in this tutorial, I will teach you how to print brochures that is almost perfect for your market. It is all about being “market-centric” here with a lot of aspects of your brochures. Let us start with the most important factor in making this possible, the custom brochure message.
1. Market-centric brochure messages – A brochure’s message can easily be composed in a market centric way. All you really have to do is to pay attention to two specific sides of the message of a brochure and that is the content and the style.
a. Content – To make a market centric brochure message, the content of the message should be well suited for the target market. The content must have all the information that a specific target market needs in the proper quality of content.
So for example, the content of an advertising brochure for yuppies should be changed to something more appropriate when the target market is changed to senior citizens. These different demographic markets require different types, amounts and portions of information. So you should match your content with what the target market wants. Do your market research well for your content.
b. Style – The style on the other hand for brochure messages is again dependent on the market. The ideal language and style for brochures may change when you switch to different markets. The language of teenagers will of course have variations from the baby boomers or from the emerging tech yuppies of today. Match the style and tone of the content with your market and your brochures will be well matched and ideal for that demographic.
2. Market-centric brochure themes and styles – When it comes to the actual design theme and style, you will also need to do your research to make your color brochures almost perfect for your market. This means that you have to know how your market responds to different themes and styles. A younger crowd would probably like to see a “hip” and ”cool” kind of design, while a more corporate kind of demographic will still opt for the traditional business theme. Match the theme to what the market prefers and you’ll of course have a market centric brochure.
3. Perfect brochure configuration for the market – It is also important to match your brochure configuration for your market. Usually for the general market, a trifold brochure is enough. However, for other markets such as the more creative crowd of marketing professionals, a more creative configuration is more appropriate. That is the time when you bring in more exotic folds like gate folds and “accordion” folds. Also, if you are printing guide brochures for example that needs a map or a large graphic, then a French fold brochure might be more appropriate. Depending on how the market is supposed to use the brochure as well as their expectations, your brochure configuration should try to match what they want.
4. Dynamic reprinting strategies – Finally, truly near-perfect brochures are brochures that evolve. You cannot use one brochure design every year. Eventually it will get out of sync with what the market wants. So it is important that you be dynamic with your reprinting strategies for color brochures. Always change the designs and adapt it to current trends in your market. Keep changing your designs yearly or even bi-annually if your market is truly frisky. The better your color brochures adapt to change, the more perfect they are for the market.
So that is how you make near-perfect color brochures. Perfect brochure printing is impossible, but everyone can make it as near perfect as they can.
