When it comes to garden maintenance, landscaping or building services, a key way to promote your business is through flyer or leaflet printing. Actively publicising your services to potential clients through leaflet printing and distribution is an affordable way to spread your message to an offline audience within a defined geographical area – either through direct mail, door drops or by displaying in a relevant location.
Retro styles are definitely back in fashion, from interiors and clothes to poster and postcard printing. Just a quick browse of Pinterest will demonstrate that vintage colours, patterns and quirky text are back! When promoting an event or a business, using a postcard to hand out to potential customers can be a great way to get your product into their hands, in a convenient and eye-catching format.
Without wanting to give the game away regarding my age I remember from a very early age the thrill of receiving a postcard through the letterbox. A letter for me! From friends who had gone to Tenby for a two week summer holiday to the more exotic destinations of camping in France or a beach holiday in Spain. And then when I started work it was always the done thing to send a postcard to the poor colleagues left behind covering your job whilst you had your annual two weeks away somewhere. It was just expected that a card would be sent. And when they went away the process would be repeated. At the end of the summer holiday season all the postcards would be pinned up somewhere communal - a memory board of our happy holidays.

One of the key ways for a wedding service provider (such as decoration hire, photographers or entertainers) to promote their business is through the use of printing posters, brochures and flyers. The best way of getting these posters in front of brides-to-be is at wedding fairs and exhibitions, but with a lot of competition in the industry, how can you make sure your poster or leaflet stands out?

When creating a print poster, or a leaflet, brochure or flyer for your business, it’s important to get every aspect of the design right in order to draw people’s interest. But while features such as images and colour are key for print posters and other marketing materials, it’s also important not to overlook the typography used in the design. Typography combines elements of the overall branding of any piece of promotional material, be it a poster, flyer, blog post or a letter, as it evokes a certain feeling for the reader and it can engage and retain interest.
Greeting card printing can be used for numerous occasions such as corporate events, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, etc and are a thoughtful way to show your appreciation to your customers or simply keep in touch.
