When creating a product brochure for an online company, you must know that there are thousands of potential customers that are very cautious about buying an item from and sending their credit card information to an unknown online store. This is one of the reasons why a printed product brochure can help your online store to succeed. An online company needs a product brochure for credibility, because people expect a legitimate company to have a product brochure. Having a printed product brochure is also time saving, allowing potential customers to take the product brochure home to read on their own time.

When designing a product brochure you must make the buyer feel as though they cannot live without your product. Whether you are selling computers or cat toys, you must remember that the first page of your product brochure is what will draw your buyers in. If you make the common mistake of loading the product brochure with technical jargon and long complicated model numbers you have as good as lost the sale. The object is to motivate the buyer with thought-provoking statements, and colorful item descriptions that tells the reader that there is something inside that they can't live without.

The first page of the product brochure should include the company name, at least one picture of the product, and a simple flattering description of product. On the inside of your product brochure you can use more precise product information and list the different types of the product. On the back page is a good place to put your ordering information, order form or website address.

Direct mailing is one of the most effective marketing tactics available to the modern corporation. With new federal laws that limit when and how companies can contact customers via telephone and electronic mail, sending a letter and sales brochure via the mail is one of the last truly effective direct marketing tactics. Combining a sales brochure with a sales letter is a great one-two punch combo that has led to many successful direct mailing experiences. The letter introduces the customer to the product and piques their interest, while the sales brochure expands upon the product and details how the product is useful to the consumer. This article discusses how to write an effective direct mail sales brochure.

To write a sales brochure that is able to both inform and persuade potential customers, the author must be intimately familiar with the product or service being offered. Not only must the author have a deep knowledge of what is being offered, but he/she must also truly believe in its value. The public has an uncanny ability to pick out material that is produced half heartedly, and a sales brochure that is written by an author who is lukewarm about or, perhaps worse, completely ignorant of the product is not likely to persuade the potential customer.

Good sales brochures are both informative and persuasive. The customer looks to the sales brochure to expand upon the information given in the sales letter and provide direct evidence of how the product can solve their particular problem. Therefore, the best sales brochure writers try to anticipate the most common customer needs and address them in the sales brochure.

Offset printing is the most common printing technology in use by commercial print shops. Offset printing involves transferring the ink from the plate roller to an intermediate (or offset) roller, which is typically made of rubber, before applying it to the print media. Other types of printing contact the printing media directly with the plate roller. Offset printing has several distinct advantages over other printing methods.

Offset printing offers a number of improvements to older printing methods. First, it is possible with offset printing to print on a number of different types of media, not just paper. Since offset printing uses a flexible rubber roller, images can be transferred to media such as cloth, fur, and other nonstandard printing materials. Additionally, offset printing typically creates higher quality documents because the rubber roller conforms to the print media, whereas the inflexible rollers in older printing techniques would sometimes blur letters if the media was not fed precisely. The printing plate in offset printing typically lasts longer since the plate is only contacted by the rubber offset roller and not the abrasive print media which can wear down the plate with prolonged contact.

The first offset printing machine was created in England in the late nineteenth century, but was only created for printing on metal and was not considered to be a replacement for stone roller printing. The full potential of offset printing was not recognized until the early twentieth century when American printer Ira Washington Rubel noticed that documents printed by offset printing were of higher quality than other documents. Since then, offset printing has come to dominate the commercial printing landscape.
