Festive and unique posters are not just for holidays
No matter the season or the occasion, here are some of the best reminders when printing posters so you can have excellent and effective print posters for your business.
Use color at all times. Print in full color if your budget allows for it. No matter what the public is celebrating, you have to have color if you want to grab the attention of your target audience with your design and layout. Display your different themes with the festivity in your color printing. In addition, add that special glow in your print posters with color inks.
Use special ink effects. Not only should you dabble with color when printing, you should also apply special inks that would help you highlight your unique graphics and images. Glossy inks and glitter will add to the uniqueness and attention-grabbing qualities, not to mention that they add to the design elements that would highlight your stand out layout.
Use glossy paper. If you want to be noticed, be sure to print on glossy paper to add that extra sparkle to your print ads. Your poster printing would benefit from that extra sheen that glossy paper brings to your ad. The extra gloss can also provide durability. Hence, it would last a little longer than your usual expiration date.
Print them big. Do you want to stand out? Would you like to grab the attention of your target clients? Then print it big. Bigger than the standard size. This is the reason why billboards usually get the hype when placed along the streets and highways. Their gargantuan size makes it difficult for any passerby to ignore them. So if you want to be noticed and you would want to reach out to as many target clients as possible, print bigger than your usual print size.
Minimize on your fonts. Therefore, you need to be seen and recognized. However, it also does not mean that you should overwhelm and confuse your audience. I am talking about minimizing the use of different fonts in your design. Sure, fonts can also help you provide a unique design for your print poster. Too much of it can also clutter your layout as well as confuse your target clients to the message you really want to convey. It can be quite messy to look at and would mean lesser impact for your color posters.
Steer Clear From Web Images. It may be the easiest for you to acquire, what with the free downloads available online. However, these images can also put you at a disadvantage. Most downloadable images have low resolution, which can result, to bad and pixilated images in your poster design. The result? Low impact and less attraction from your target audience.
Maximize your number of prints. Do not allow your budget to deter you from printing many copies. If you cannot afford to print many big posters, then go for smaller versions of your print ad but in big quantities. As you would always need more when you are marketing, it is good promotional strategy if you can have more than enough to put up.
Remember these suggestions and you can never go wrong with your posters even if the holiday season is over.
