Flyers are effective way of promoting your business to the greater marketplace. The challenge is to pick one that is the right size for the job. Too big and you\u2019ll be paying for printing you aren\u2019t using, too small and everything will be so cramped that people won\u2019t be able to understand it. So what size is the right size for you need get across to customers?<\/p>\n
A3 flyers are normally given to customer folded down to an A4 or smaller. Great for situations where you need to give a lot of information to a customer but don\u2019t want to give them a booklet. It is also useful where you want a single full image to give a big wow factor. The only limitation is the cost factor as printing this size limits the number of flyers we can print per impression. The common use is for map or plan style information sheets or product \u2018pinup\u2019 images.<\/p>\n
A4 flyers are sometimes given to customers as a flat item but more often folded to A5 or DL. When you need to give a good amount of information that you want your customers to read, or when it is feeling like a letter to them, A4 is the way to go. Cheaper to produce than a A3, in bigger runs, we can do two sides of an A4 for less than a single sided A3, it\u2019s a good trade off cost to working space. The down side is that you really need to fill up that space or it will look empty and half hearted. Most often we print A4 in the form of personalised (direct marketing) flyers or as brochure containing multiple products or offers.<\/p>\n
A5 flyers, are great trade off between the space of an A4 and the cost effectiveness of an A6 (\u00bc A4). They give you the room to fit good amount of information but aren\u2019t too big to give out flat to people. We use the A5 when people need a format that supports big colourful images but still fits that important information for a customer. Common uses are for product information sheets, flyers with a tear off voucher, or brochures listing multiple deals.<\/p>\n
DL flyers are only slightly smaller in area to an A5 and have the same flexibility as that size. The only limitation of the format is that some layouts and art that looks good on the \u2018A\u2019 sizes look strange in DL unless rebuilt for that format. Again the uses are the same as the A5.<\/p>\n
A6, aka postcard size, the smallest of the standard flyer sizes. Cheap to produce and able to still have an impact, the only problem is when the flyer is this small there is only so much information you can fit before it becomes cramped. A6 is best suited where you need to reach a lot of people with a single idea\/product for a low per unit cost.<\/p>\n
Yep, you can do other sizes, as long as it fits within an A3 sheet size you can have any format you want. Some people use the business card size (55x90mm) for an \u2018in the wallet\u2019 advertising or either cut an A4 or A3 to an odd proportion to stand out from the crowds.
