You see them in grocery store aisles, malls, banks, airports, bus terminals, conventions, and almost in every site where people usually flock. They come in different colors and, sometimes, shapes and sizes. Whether you pick one up because you need to learn some much-needed information or merely because you are bored, pamphlets are always there for you.

Brochures are really attention-grabbing. They come in various patterns and loud colors or big text font, and they are placed in points where people flock to. But the real test of a great brochure doesn’t just lie on being an attention-grabber, it is when people pick it up from a bevy of other pamphlets.

There are just a few easy measures to ensure your brochure will stand out from the crowd.

The first and most important step is knowing your intended market. Maybe you have created the coolest gothic-themed design you could think of, even incorporating a vampire versus werewolf design. But would your intended readers of males aged 30 to 50 appreciate that, or even give it a another glance? Not knowing your intended readers is a surefire way to miss readers.

Merely because a brochure normally has multiple pages, it doesn’t mean it can look like an entire chapter ripped out from a book. Make a title text that summarizes the whole aim of the brochure. A one-word title in large readable font would be perfect. Just follow it up with an accompanying subtitle that further explains the brochure. Also, keep the data short and to the point on the following pages. It should be easy to read so your readers will really read it from beginning to end.

Don’t leave out your business’ name and contact details. After capturing the notice of your readers, they would naturally want to know more. And what good would your brochure do if they can’t refer prospective customers back to you?

Design your brochure on how your intended market likes it and what your content is all about. How would a brochure about nutrition facts capture the attention of busy moms scouring grocery store aisles while balancing their toddlers on their cart? If you think cutting your brochure into a shape resembling a grocery cart would make them notice it, then by all means, do so. Color and font style should likewise be taken into consideration. And just like data, design overload may also kill your brochure. Stick to a the same theme and use it on all the pages.

Finally, the brochures must be located in an eye-catching place where your intended readers generally stay. People won’t bother to pick up a pamphlet that tells about a big shopping center sale event that is happening in a different province. A brochure about a restaurant’s major buffet event is also unlikely to be noticed if placed in a stand near a health gym.

Those are just some of the basic ways you should consider when you wish your pamphlet to stand out. You could likewise try adding gleaming texts or other special effects or even get attractive girls to personally hand out the pamphlets if you suppose those would help. But for starters, try the said steps first to ensure your brochures would have more than a passing glance by your target market.
