Brochures Can Be a Big Deal
By: Janice Jenkins
Most of the time, I am as happy as the next guy to not get another brochure
in the mail. But every now and then I am reminded of just how important the
brochure can be for marketing your company. Printing brochures are an
opportunity to boldly place your products and services right in front of your
customers exactly as you want the products and services to be presented.
Brochures, especially mailers, present a unique opportunity to clearly display
your brand. Many of the other marketing and advertising channels, such as the
web site or commercials, are becoming more and more cluttered. Websites have
advertisements running up and down the sides of the page. TV commercials are 30
seconds at best and the customer is immediately hit with another commercial. But
the brochure stands alone. The only other competition comes from the other
brochures the customer may have received.
In this regard, your brochure may have a better chance of spotlighting your
products and services when compared to other forms of media. Sure, there are
other brochures that you may have to compete against. But when compared with the
onslaught of marketing that consumers are hit with on the Internet and on
television, sorting through a few brochures seems relatively simple.
As a final point, using a brochure will ultimately depend on the specific
product or service and the customers you may be trying to reach. Many products
simply do not fit the marketing model of a brochure. Think “high margin low
turnover” type products and services. Your brochure will give you an opportunity
to present these products and services in an ideal way with the isolated format.
And that is why every now and then I am glad to see a good brochure. It makes me
stop and stare, and gets meet thinking, “Wow! I could really use one of those!”
or “I never thought to use that service like that.”
