Business Flyers Have One Purpose: To Sell and Inform
Full color business flyers are a fast, affordable way to reach customers. The right design helps people notice your offer, understand it, and act. Use these best practices to make your next flyer work harder for your business.
Best Practices for Business Flyer Design
Be a Problem Solver
Lead with the problem your customer wants to solve. Benefits beat feature lists every time. Instead of “Professional and inexpensive roof installation,” try “Protect your home with a free 10 year roof warranty after installation.” Clear value, clear next step.
Hook Them With an Offer
Give people a reason to visit, call, or scan. Add a limited time coupon, a free add-on, or a first visit discount. Strong offers create urgency and word of mouth. They also make results easier to measure with codes and QR scans.
Be Different From the Other Guys
Scan what competitors are saying and take a distinct angle. Use proof points, reviews, guarantees, or a specialty no one else mentions. For more ideas, see our companion post Design Tips for Flyers and our core Flyer Design services.
