Leaflet ideas for businesses: Our expert tips
We asked our in-house leaflet experts for quick tips to help you design the best leaflet for your industry based on their experience with hundreds of other successful customers.
Babysitting flyers:
- You should focus mainly on the text information, though having a photo of yourself is useful for building trust.
- Detail the ages and areas your babysitting covers, any specific services (such as transportation, before and after school, weekend care, etc.), and contact information.
- It’s also good to include testimonials from happy clients. Try to ensure they are happy for you to use their names, and maybe a photo if you have space on your leaflet, as this adds to your authenticity. If you can’t use identifying information from former clients, you can still mention details to make the review more specific and believable, e.g. ‘Mum of 4 and 5-year-old, West London area, Client of X years’.
Car garage leaflets
- A photo of the outside of your garage on the front of your flyer is a good start, as people may instantly recognise where it is by sight alone.
- Include the prices of MOTs, services, new tyres, and the other most popular car repairs customers will want to know.
- List the makes and manufacturers you cater to as well. If you have special expertise, keep this front and centre.
- A map and opening hours, along with contact details, are essential.
- As with any other business, displaying good customer reviews is essential to evidence any claims about your business. Include details to show they come from real customers without making people personally identifiable, for example, the make/model of the car you serviced, for what, and when.
Tutoring flyers and leaflets
- With any flyer, you need to proofread and ensure that all the text is spelt correctly and grammatically correct, but this is vital for tutoring. Anyone will unlikely trust your service if there are spelling mistakes, so get a second person to read through if you can.
- Include your skills and experience to build trust.
- Keep it simple and add contact details, including your phone number, email and address.
- Graphics should be related to what you’re tutoring, for example, pianos and musical notes if you’re teaching music, scrolls and books for English.
