Flyers are one of the most popular and most effective ways of advertising. They’re great for companies and individuals who don’t have a huge budget for advertising, and they can reel in some very impressive results when used correctly.
Flyers are used by thousands of companies around the world each day, and with so many flyers in constant print and distribution, you need to make sure yours stands out from the crowd, otherwise it’s not going to be nearly as successful as you’re hoping for.
In order to design a successful flyer, there are a number of things you should keep in mind; firstly you want to make sure your flyer is eye-catching and attention grabbing, you want anyone who catches a glimpse of your flyer to stop, pick it up and want to read your flyer. Secondly you need to think about the information you’re presenting on the flyer, do you have all of the essential information there? Have you got too much information there cluttering the flyer? And last but not least, where you’re going to have your flyers printed – this is just as important as the design process… you could have an impeccable design, but if it’s a low quality print or poorly printed, then it’s just going to end up in the trash. It really has to be perfect to serve its purpose effectively and make a lasting imprint on the readers mind.

As you’re scrolling through these examples, make notes about each design – what grabs your attention, why it’s original, what you like about it etc. and then incorporate these into your own design.
You’ll notice that all of the designs are very good at grabbing your attention through great use of colour, shapes and typography. On to the designs:

I really like the game night flyer! I love the colour and the simplicity of it!! 😀
These are some really unique and creative flyers and this is true that a great flyer can only be created by excellent design combine with high quality printing material. If a flyer lack in any of this qualities it can never impress its target audience.
