We\u2019ve all seen some of the shoddier examples of poster campaigns; out-of-date, spelling mistakes, unreadable fonts, blue tacked to the wall, possibly even crumpled up on the floor.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s an easy way to solve the tatty, blue-tacked, crumpled on-the-floor issue, and that\u2019s to invest in some<\/span> cheap poster frames<\/a>. Once you\u2019ve done that, you just need to make the most of them, we\u2019ve come up with some top tips to help you out.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Have some clear objectives<\/h2>\n

Are you a bar promoting an upcoming night? A shop promoting a buy one get one free deal? Or a doctor’s surgery trying to reduce unnecessary appointments?<\/span><\/p>\n

Whatever your business, whatever you\u2019re aiming to promote, it\u2019s important to start with a clear idea of what you want to achieve. This will allow you to keep your posters to the point, with a clear message that your customers can instantly understand.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Choose where to display your poster frames carefully<\/h2>\n

Your posters need to grab the customer’s attention whilst they have the opportunity to take in the content; there\u2019s a good reason you\u2019ve read so many posters on a public toilet door.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to reduce unnecessary appointments in your doctor’s surgery, the waiting room is probably a better option than the doctor\u2019s office.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a bar that gets a queue out the door, place your poster frames in the queuing area, rather than next to a busy dance floor.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. It’s not always necessary to spend money on a professional designer<\/h2>\n

Your business and the purpose of your poster frames will determine whether a professionally designed poster is worthwhile.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re running a popular bar or club and promoting an upcoming night with a celebrity guest, the professional touch will certainly be expected; but if you\u2019re a small independent shop or local doctors surgery, it\u2019s acceptable to save some money and design a poster in-house.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re designing your poster or using a professional, it must catch your customers eye, and remember your poster is representing your business.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Large<\/p>\n

4. Think about your target audience<\/h2>\n

Use phrases and imagery that will appeal to your target customer. If you\u2019re promoting a nightclub event, slang, and risqu\u00e9 imagery may be well received, but if you\u2019re a doctor’s surgery trying to reduce unnecessary appointments a polite, professional, informative approach is likely to be more appropriate.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Spell check!<\/h2>\n

Your poster represents your company, you don\u2019t want to risk your customers laughing at you because of a silly typo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Run your spell checker, and have some time away from your poster before proofreading, once you\u2019ve got some distance you\u2019ll find yourself in a better position to spot any typos. Another good idea is to get someone else to cast an eye over your poster before committing to a large print run.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Print a test poster<\/h2>\n

Print out one copy and test it out in your poster frame. Make sure your chosen font is still clear to read once it\u2019s in the frame.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s also a good idea to check that the main points of the poster are clear. It needs to grab your customer’s attention in the first instance, and then clearly communicate your message.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you find it\u2019s too small and increasing the font makes it feel too cramped, you may need to look at getting some<\/span> large poster frames<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Keep your poster frames up to date<\/h2>\n

If you haven\u2019t got anything to promote at certain times of the year, it\u2019s better to remove old posters from your frames and display a company logo as a placeholder. Leaving an out-of-date poster up could frustrate your customers, leading to them ignoring your future posters.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you expect to change your posters regularly, you may find an easy-to-open frame beneficial, such as these<\/span> snap frames<\/a>, available in the UK.<\/span><\/p>\n
