Leaflet printing is a cheap way to promote your products and services. You can reach thousands of potential customers for just a few pence each. Millions of leaflets are printed each year by companies wishing to connect with customers for cheap.
Although printed leaflets can be cheap at Print Republic the quality of print is not cheap. We pride ourselves in our work and create quality professional business leaflets that meet the high standards you set for your business. By using poor quality leaflets you will create the wrong image for your business.
Printing Leaflets for the First Time
If you are printing leaflets for the first time Print Republic can help you from start to finish, right from the moment you decide you need printed leaflets. Leaflet design can be tricky if you don’t know where to start. We have a leaflet design service that can be added to your order. Our expert designers can help you get the most from your printed leaflets.
What size should a printed leaflet be?
Printed leaflets come in lots of different sizes and needless to say the large the leaflet the more it will cost. DL Leaflets are small compact leaflets with a 99mm x 210mm dimension. If this leaflet dimension is not quite right but you still want something compact an A6 printed leaflet has the dimensions 105mm x 148mm.
If DL leaflets and A6 leaflets do not have enough space for you A5 and A4 leaflets are also popular. The dimensions of an A5 leaflet are 148mm x 210mm. An A5 leaflet is double the size on an A6 leaflet. For the maximum amount of space you can go for an A4 leaflet which has the dimensions 210mm x 297mm. An A4 leaflet is double the size on an A5 and 3 times the size of a DL leaflet.
Deciding what size leaflet to print will depend on how much you have to say if you can say it in a few words a smaller leaflet will be adequate if your leaflets require lots of text then a leaflet of A4 or A5 would be better this will ensure your text is readable by all.

Whatever your business is and whatever service or product you are advertising; only the very best business cards will do! The internet is a wondrous invention and we all know how vital a part it often plays in so many people’s everyday lives now that it is hard to remember a time when we weren’t Googling everything! How did we used to find out things without Wikipedia and how on earth did we used to book holidays without completing a Google search first?
Googlecentric is a term that refers to people who think in terms of Google. For example, you ask someone a question and they reply more often than not with: “Hold on, let me Google that!” or “I don’t know but I know a search engine that does…..” The best business cards can be found by being Googlecentric as the internet is a visual way to view other designs that look great as well as those that you want to avoid. Sketching a rough design and actually seeing designs printed in colour on the web are two totally different things and looking through previous success and failure examples is an ideal way to create an unbeatable design.
There are numerous ways to create high quality business cards and Google can work as your own personal assistant when it comes to creating a design. Search for designs that are essentially your competition by looking at business cards in the same sector as yourself and see what they are missing. Get into some online forums and ask people what they would want to see from your business cards and create a folder full of potential ideas that you can pull off the Google images pages. High quality business cards can be created through a little creativity and by acting a little Googlecentric!

Good quality and reliable business printing services are hard to come by and it is important to know what you need from your service before you try and find one to use. Firstly, do not always be pulled in by offers and deals that seem too good to be true as although it may sound cliché; if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is! Some businesses that offer free business cards will be offering cards for free but at a lower quality than what you would ever benefit from using. However, some companies offering a printing service with free or discounted business cards will use their best cards as they would if you were paying and these legitimate businesses are the ones worth hunting down.
You should look for a printing service that is fast, affordable and of a good quality and if it means paying a little more, then the quality of a leaflet or business card should take prevalence over a good sounding deal. There is no point in ordering free or cheap flyers if the printing looks lousy. Advertising with flimsy paper and unattractive print can actually work against you and it can actually be more beneficial to not advertise at all than to advertise with awful looking means.
As well as looking for fast business printing services that deliver on quality paper, with quality inks and at affordable prices you also want to find a company that is reliable. If you are going to a conference and need new cards to take with you and you place an order for a certain date it is hugely important that you receive by the date that you request. A successful marketing campaign is largely based on the quality of the printing services that you use so choose your company with care…….
Print Republic only provide quality printing services with quality paper and superior service. We know it is important for your business to portray the right image. Whatever printing service you require we can advise you on the best options for creating an impact.

Promotional leaflets are important to the success of your brand as there is little point in developing a product/service without letting people know that it exists. Without the ability to advertise you cannot sell and without the ability to sell what is the point is all of your hard work? Your leaflet much be designed in a way that clearly explains your product/service as well as how they can contact you and purchase your offering.
A border always works well as a way to give dirty fingertips somewhere to imprint that does not have an impact on your information. A title/description of what you are providing should be short and concise plus the all important catchy slogan. Be funny and creative to get people’s attention. Just because they are business leaflets doesn’t mean you can’t have fun with them.
Designing leaflets isn’t that complicated and the most important decisions will be whether you want coloured leaflets, folded leaflets, double or single sided and where to get them printed. Be consistent so if you go for a multi-layered leaflet printed on both sides then makes sure the border, company logo and colouring system is the same throughout to make it obvious who you are and what you are offering. Pictures or photographs work well as many use visual ideas when they create an opinion about something and promotional leaflets are designed to promote; so don’t be afraid to push your offerings.
Bright colours are always eye catching and successful business leaflets will pay full attention to making the brand obvious at a quick glance as well as being relevant to whatever your are promoting. If you run a day car centre for children use photo’s of smiling children playing and if you run a kennels create a funny dog cartoon and place it on the front. A little creativity goes a long way in the world of printing………….

Quality business cards are partly about finding a reliable printing service and partly about a good design. Professional business cards should have clues in the design as to what your product/service is rather than simply being plain and boring. If something is dull and uninteresting then it is forgettable and the whole aim of professional business cards is to grab attention not deflect it. High quality business cards are the few that actually make an impact and if someone knows exactly what you are offering them just from the card then that is proof that your are the best business cards that you can get.
High quality business cards as a basic rule of thumb should match up with your business so if you are a personal trainer include a picture of weights or if you provide plumbing services then produce a card in the shape of a tap etc. Not all designs have to be quirky or predictable and a funny slogan will also keep your high quality business cards remembered. Create a link between the professional business cards and the business, either through a picture, a shape or with text and colours.
If the services that you provide are slightly more serious then there is still room to create memorable quality business cards as you can use different finishes and classy colours with the inclusion of a small logo in the corner that indicates what sector you are in. The idea of professional business cards is to make them into mini adverts for your products or services and this will only work by producing large numbers of them, circulating them through the best channels, with a catchy design and by using a printing service that is affordable and reliable.

Leaflet printing is an excellent way to alert people about your business services. No matter what business you are in a printed leaflet can get a message across. Leaflets can be printed in a variety of sizes A4, A5 and A6.
Leaflets are a great business promotional tool. Many businesses print out 5000 leaflets and do a leaflet drop going door to door posting the printed leaflets through potential customers’ letter boxes. If you don’t fancy walking to 5000 letterboxes you can also print leaflets and send them via post as a direct mail campaign.
Another great way to distribute leaflets if you want to reach the whole of the UK is to use your printed leaflet as an insert in a magazine. By printing leaflets to go into magazines you can target your audience by the type of publication. This will improve the effectiveness of your leaflet marketing. Usually leaflets inserted into magazines are often glossier than door drop leaflets. This is because the leaflet has to compete for your attention with the rest of the magazine.
If you are looking to print leaflets to promote your business talk to Print Republic about the best way to go about this. Getting the leaflet designed correctly with the right size and paper weight can make a big difference to the success of your marketing campaign.
