For small business owners, it’s already clear what the many benefits of brochures can be. They’re a great way to showcase what products and services your business may offer. Despite its small size, the brochure packs a big punch in regards to marketing your business. Since they are compact, but high impact, they can really make you stand out from the crowd. Their affordability makes them an appealing option to many people, but you must be using brochures effectively for them to really make an impact on your sales.

You’re probably familiar with the phrase “show, don’t tell” from creative writing classes or English courses you’ve taken in the past, but it applies to brochures pretty well. You don’t want to just tell your customer about a product or service. Instead, focus on the benefits those services have and include images if you’re in an industry that needs visuals to sell your products, like a custom fencing and decking company.
Understanding Your Customers
Think about what questions a potential customer may have about your service or product and answer them in the brochure. It shouldn’t just be a sales pitch; brochures come with the authority of being informational, so you really want it to include whatever information may be necessary. If you’re thinking about ways to acquire new customers, consider their needs, such as how your product can improve their daily lives or make things easier for them.
Utilizing Space
A big mistake often made by small businesses working with brochures is crowding the pages. Brochures are compact and that means you need to think about what content really deserves a place. Don’t include unnecessary photos or text--try distilling your content down into the absolute necessities. This bare bones approach makes it much more unlikely that a potential customer will get bored of reading and toss your beautiful brochure in the garbage bin.
