Developing the text content for brochure printing may sound simple, but the truth is, you need some finesse to really create effective ones. Do not worry though; it is not that hard to create text content for brochure printing. You just need to learn the right techniques. Let me show you how with these five simple tips below. Let us start with the most important part, the headline.

Composing a good headline.

A good headline is a core part of the effectiveness of your color brochures. It must always be attractive to readers so that your brochures will get immediately picked up. Hence, you need to follow the standard guidelines for headline writing just like newspapers do. Keep the headline simple, concise and with as few words as possible. Of course, use very interesting words that really capture what your brochure is all about, while at the same time engaging the readers’ interest. Always try 5 to 10 variations of your headlines first, and then test it out on several people. Find the best one with the positive reviews and you should have what you need.

Proper text formats for brochures.

Now, the best text content for brochures is not only printed in neat paragraphs. While you can do this, most successful brochures actually help readers more by listing some of its contents. Using numbered and bulleted lists not only helps people remember information more, it also breaks the monotony of the paragraphs and add space. This makes the brochure less boring and a little bit more interesting. So make it a point to add lists with your paragraphs whenever possible.

Font sizes and styles.

The fonts for your brochure printing should usually be a simple affair. However, to make it presentable and easily understandable, you need to reign in your creativity and stick to a few standard sizes and font styles. Plan on sticking to just one or two font styles while only varying the font sizes of the title, sub headers and the body text itself. Don’t use too many variations as this can really make the color brochure look unprofessional.

Font colors.

Font colors should also be kept to a minimum. One or two colors are enough for a great brochure. Only the images can carry full colors. When it comes to text, nobody really wants to read text that is colorful, it can be really hard to read especially for brochures. So keep the text colors low, and always contrast it with the background. Darker colors are best for light backgrounds and the opposite is true for darker backgrounds.

That should help you create great text content that is effective for your brochure printing. Use these tips wisely and you will not have trouble with your content.
