How Should My Flyers Look?
Even if you’re not a designer, there are ways to create an awesome flyer which stimulates a positive community event turn out. What is your neighborhood identity? Is there a mural painted nearby that has become a geographical indicator of your community? Incorporate that local pride onto your flyers. Use it as the background for your flyer, or create a collage filled with neighborhood symbols. Be sure to include necessary information such as where and when the event is, what sorts of amenities and performances will be there, and how much it costs. Organize this information seamlessly. The eye should follow the content with ease. Bullet points are extremely useful, as well as font size variation, and color contrast. You don’t want your reader straining their eyes. Your flyers should be filled with neighborhood pride, familiar images, and the information should be easy to digest. Afterall, they are just passing by when they see it. Flyers are meant to be read quickly as people go about their daily routine. Make sure they are accessible in this way.
Where Should I Hang My Flyers?
Many new residents have never lived in the city. Printed flyers are a classic, and effective way to spread the word. Adding an old-school vibe with colorful, eye-catching flyers draws a lot of attention, especially for post-graduate young adults who are fresh to Baltimore and are looking for city-living aesthetics. You’ll reach such an audience, easily, with posted flyers. Reach the locals who’ve been living in your neighborhood for years by posting flyers in popular hang out spots. Does your block have a favorite bar or venue where everyone can be seen on Friday nights? Hang those flyers up on bulletin boards, behind the bar, and by the front doors. Does everyone on your street get their hair cut at the same spot? Ask the owner if you can hang your community flyers there. If they know you, and love the neighborhood just as much, they’ll likely approve. If you have a park where everyone brings their kids, hang your flyers around there! You know your neighborhood best! Find the spots where most people congregate and hang the flyers all over the place.
