Is Your Notepad Draft Ready for Printing
Okay! So you have finished with your draft for notepad printing. What comes next, the notepad printing itself? Well, not necessarily. Before you pass on those drafts and print those custom notepads, you should first ask yourself a few questions to make sure that the design is indeed proper for mass production. Let me tell you five of the most important questions that you should ask yourself about your custom notepad draft.
1. Does the layout have the right theme that I want to communicate? – First, you should review if your notepad layout communicates the right theme that you want. Each custom notepad printing batch of course has a specific theme and purposes to it. You may want it to establish your professional image, or your company’s business image. You may also want it to do some marketing or public relations. All these objectives must be blatantly present in the theme and obviously understandable to the reader. If it takes a while for the theme to register, then you might want to re-do your layout for color notepads.
2. Does my design have the right kind of appealing header? – Another thing that you should check in your custom notepads is if it has an appealing header. The header in custom notepads is where you can actually put in a lot of precise design details, and you will of course always want it to be appealing to the reader or notepad writer. So try to review your notepad headers and see if it is appealing enough to read and write on. Have others give you their feedback as a well so that you are sure that their headers look just right.
3. Is the size of the notepad template appropriate for my purpose? – You might also want to ask if the notepad template is actually appropriate for your purpose. Some larger or smaller notepad templates may or may not work for specific purposes. For marketing for example, smaller custom notepads are best so that you can print more of them as well as give them out to more people. For actual practical purposes of note taking, larger color notepads are best for functionality. So try to review if the notepad template that you used for custom notepad design is the most appropriate.
4. Is the design unique enough to be remembered? – Distinction is key to making a custom notepad really succeed at its job. So you should ask yourself if your color notepad design is unique enough to be remembered before you mass produce it. Try to see if you used too much of the template’s sample printing or if you copied other designs a little bit too closely. The more unique or original your custom notepad designs are, the more impact and special your custom notepads should be.
5. Is the design practical enough for a notepad? – Finally, before you go ahead in mass production, you should always check and ask yourself if your design is practical enough for a notepad. Some people get carried away sometimes with their custom notepad designs that it makes the whole notepad unusable. So you better check first and see if your own designs are still decent and writable. If not, you will be destroying the whole point of notepad printing.
So those are the checks that you need to do to make a better custom notepad. Just answer the different questions above before you actually do your notepad printing. Believe me, it will save you a lot of money in reprinting if you get everything right before mass production.
