Which of These Six Brochure Fold Types is Right for Your Business?
In a world of endless options, brochures are no different. Take a look at these six brochure types and let us help you decide which one to use for your company.
A brochure is a small book or magazine that contains pictures and information about a product, service, or business. And yeah, we know what you're thinking — people still use brochures? Ohhhhh yes. Brochures do still exist beyond Florida hotel lobbies and 2000s movies about college. Whether you choose to make a paper or digital brochure, they're a super powerful marketing tool. Put out the good word about your business in a format that allows for visual creativity and forces you to be concise in what you say and how you say it. Building a presentation or lecture? Create an educational brochure so attendees have something tangible, informative, and memorable to take home.
We promise you didn't need to pass math in order to master proper brochure folding techniques. But first, what kind of brochure do you want? How to fold a brochure depends on answering that question. If you want a bifold brochure, then you'd fold it in half like a book. Divide a trifold brochure into thirds, folding the right side into the left side like an accordion. Then there are z-fold brochures — these open in the opposite direction they close from. Note that neither trifolds or z-folds need to be folded equally, even though most brochure creators do so.
You can print a brochure yourself, or send to a professional print shop. If printing yourself, make sure to buy some quality paper beforehand (with a matte or gloss)...a bit more elegant than your average printing paper. Of course, a professional print shop will also get the job done right and be able to assist with any questions you have. This can be costly, though, especially if printing hundreds or thousands of brochures. If you do send to a print shop, make sure to also account for bleed space. Since printers can't print to the exact edge of a document, keeping your design elements away from the edges will ensure that nothing gets cut off when printing. 1/8" on each side of your brochure design should do the trick.
