The first big decision you will have to make is the size of the brochure you want to produce. This will be determine by what you are trying to achieve and how much information you want to include. If your design is of all your latest and newly released products with some information on your company, you may want to look at A4 size, which gives you plenty of writing space. But if your design is simply to provide more information on the business and services on offer, you may want to make your design smaller and easier for your customer to put in their bag and read when they get home.
Once you have your size in mind, you need to look at your objectives. What are you trying to achieve with your brochure design? What message are you trying to portray? This is an essential step to the process and something you need to have clear ideas on, knowing the message and reason for the design can help your graphic designer come up with spectacular ideas for you to choose from that meets your business requirements and appeals to your target audience.
Another very important element when it comes to brochure design is the text that you use and how much text you include. The text should always be clear and easy to read, which means you need to pick your font with care. While some fonts may look nice and sophisticated, once you type out a word, it may be exceptionally difficult to read. You also need to determine the size of the text, especially if your audience is the older generation, you may prefer going for a larger text that can easily be read without the risk of your brochure ending up in the bin, because your audience couldn't read it.
Discuss with your designer on how to present your text. Will it go from side to side or will it go down? This will be determined by how the pictures have been placed and the overall design of the brochure. This means that this is another important consideration to factor into your decision, ensuring that the information you provide is adequate and interesting, but also clearly readable, while looking good on the page.
Only choose to include attractive and clear pictures. The pictures you include should be relevant to the information provided. Pictures can be used to captivate your audience, so having a picture of a fish tank when the product you are selling is dog food, doesn't make sense. Ensure that the pictures relate to the wording, enabling customers to identify what they want to read by simply looking at the page.
Your contact information must be clearly visible. Either at the bottom of each page of your brochure design or on the back page. Ensure you include your logo, company name, slogan and contact information. This ensures customers can contact you to find out more information or place an order after going through the information you have provided.
Finally, some other important points to consider when it comes to your brochure design, in addition to knowing your audience and designing to appeal to them, ensure you get to the point with original, creative and informative wording. Always maintain your identity throughout the design.
