please help- making a good brochure for web dev company
I am looking for help in my brochure design. Specifically, what sort of content to put inside it now that the design of the brochure is finished.
We are a web design agency offering premium services on a local level to clients. Our primary goal is to sign customers up to a management plan on a retainer fee, but we also take on customers on a flat-fee basis. Our agents will be going directly to businesses and will be provided with a trifold brochure that overviews our service which they can also present to potential customers. As far as the content in the brochure, we are looking for feedback on the following...
1) Because we are a start up we do not have any testimonials for our company, instead our specialists all have personal testimonials, but none of us really feel ethical just altering the testimonials as if they were for our company. Should we just omit testimonials? We really do not have the budget or free time right now to do any pro bono projects for testimonials.
2) We are overviewing two things right now. One is our "Service", the other is our "Strategy". The "Service" category is meant to overview what we plan on delivering. This includes SEO, Marketing, Graphic design, and other by-demand services that we offer retainer clients on a monthly basis. The service category doesn't include details or data about what exactly we can deliver because we don't have any way to promise a specific rate of increase sales or traffic. The service part of the brochure is actually very short hand. Here is an example...
User friendly website catered to your preferences. Reliable consultation with one of our agents. Custom content provided by demand. Active and growing social media to expand your customer base. Custom graphics provided by demand. Print design and shipment. Search engine optimization to improve your traffic. Internet marketing to improve your outreach. |
Communication: Our agents focus entirely on your strategic needs. Our specialists help with work load so the agent can spend more time on you. Quality Control: We do not outsource our work. Our team creates everything we offer. Qualified Staff: All of our consultants and specialists are hand picked for sociability, knowledge, and the quality of their work. |
3) We are lacking images in the brochure. Right now it is just the format of the brochure + text content. Because we do not have testimonials it is lacking a bit of personality. The problem is that on our website we take a very personal approach by displaying a bio and picture of each of our specialists/agents. So if we were to put a random picture of a few people next to a computer or on the phone and put it into the brochure, it might seem out of place in the context of our website. Would it be best to just include some generic "look how friendly we are" pictures pulled from the web, or should we consider some other sort of graphic?
4) Besides those two categories we will also have an overview of us. Basically just a paragraph about who we are and why we are special. Advice on how to approach that is also welcome. Right now it is just ...
