1. Be Clear, Concise, and Uncluttered

Avoid clutter with your political flyer, you don’t want to confuse voters by squeezing too much information or imagery into your design, this will make it hard to read and digest. You may need a graphic designer to help with layout and colours.

2.  Edit & Proof Read

This is a critical part to ensuring you look professional. Edit your copy, proof read and then pass along to someone else to do the same. Don’t rely on a printer to pick up mistakes, their job is to print the best quality flyer.

3. Consistency Is Key To Your Brand

You want each piece of your advertising to be identical in terms of colours, fonts, logos & messages.  Voters will come to recognize your campaign scheme on sight and recognize who you are and what you stand for.

4. Get Creative & Be Unique

Make your flyers different and unique, adding personal touches and making your material exciting instead of boring. Combine colourful images with interesting fonts to draw in the reader’s attention. Flyers are mostly small in size and using a large image can make an impressive effect on your materials.  A side note – Your graphics and images must be high resolution for the best quality. Use a professional photographer or purchase your images online.

5. Use more than one Design

Consider your voting district demographics carefully. You may want to tailor some flyers for areas where more senior citizens reside and another for younger voters, thus having various text and design can make a difference.  Also great for handing out at events where you’re targeting different demographics.

6. Include your Website URL with a Call To Action

A great idea is to add a call to action to your campaign flyers sending voters to your website.  This will mean you can track results from your flyer drop, giving you an idea of how your campaign is performing and see where voters stand.

7.  Get Targeted Delivery Of Your Flyers

As mentioned above in number 6, it’s a good idea to get more than one flyer design so you can then target according to demographics if this is an option for you.  We are able to uncover where your voters live, shop, their purchasing behaviours and lifestyle activities.
