i used to know someone who delivered leaflets s a business
he used to get 1000 for instance
deliver 1/2 and bin the rest

never trust anyone to do the leg work always do it yourself that way you know they are out
or get someone whom you know and trust

Hi guys,

I have been working on this flyer design, and would like some opinions.

I will be doing the reverse side of the flyer soon, including the full product range.

Here is the front:

sorry to sound negative but it looks plain
you need something visually stimulating that will make you want to read the leaflet

I think its looks pretty good, the front design would make me want to flip it over......less is more I reckon cos personally if a leaflet drops threw my door that is covered n loads of small writing I dont see any of it....at least if its big with a simple message I might read a bit on its way to the bin...!

i agree with TPM, but is it not possible to have a few more products on the front?

one of the best flyers i have ever had through the door was almost identical back and front, big bold, some upsidedown, i think their idea was whatever side you saw of it - the impression would be the same, if its too wordy on the back, but its the back you see first, your initial impact of the front is lost, unless you put it in someones hand you have no control over which side they get to see first, so dont think of it as a front and back think of it as a flyer - one sided might be just as effective - and cheaper, if its good people will pin it up on their wall board, so if its fun & factual you stand a better chance of it not being binned
