A well-designed, informative flier will encourage attendance at your meeting.
A flier is an ideal way to advertise an upcoming meeting, and you don't need to be a computer expert to create one that will capture your audience's attention. Use readily available computer graphics programs and templates to create an eye-catching design. A successful flier conveys all the essential information to get your message across and maximize turnout.
Select a computer program that you are familiar with to prepare your flier. Microsoft Word or Microsoft Publisher, for example, feature a range of standard templates to prepare a flier. Other templates are available from online sources.
Carefully draft all the information a recipient might need to make a decision on whether to come to your meeting. Include the five Ws and H – who, what, where, when, why and how. Be clear about who should attend and the purpose of the meeting. For example, write, "We want to share new opportunities in our export division." Tell attendees what they may get out of the meeting with language such as, "A chance to develop your career in a new and exciting field." Select suitable images, and don't forget the date, time and place.
Determine the format of your flier from the templates you have available. Select a template that will allow you to present your information in the clearest possible way, then insert your images and content. Use a single large image, rather than several small ones, to draw the reader's attention. Keep the text as simple and readable as possible so that the purpose, benefits and location of the meeting are clear. When you have finished, check everything for errors, then print as many copies as you require.
Tailor your distribution to your target audience. For example, place fliers in your workplace cafeteria or other common areas. Post copies to bulletin boards. In non-work settings, post fliers in a community center or at a local coffee shop.
