Let’s be honest—Brochure might seem old-school, but they still work. Really well. Think about the last time you picked up a nicely designed brochure at a café or a shop. It probably made you stop and look, right? That’s the power of a good brochure.

At East London Printer, we’ve been helping businesses nail their brochure game for years. No jargon, no headaches—just great printing, fast.

 

Why Brochures? (Because They Actually Work)

You might be thinking, "Brochures? In 2025? Really?" Yep. Here’s why:

  • They’re physical. Unlike another forgettable email or social media ad, a brochure sits on someone’s desk, in their bag, or—if it’s really good—on their fridge.

  • They explain things simply. Got a complex service? A brochure breaks it down in a way people actually understand.

  • They make you look legit. A flimsy, badly printed flyer screams "amateur." A crisp, well-designed brochure? That says, "We know what we’re doing."

 

Picking the Right Type (No, Not All Brochures Are the Same)

You wouldn’t wear flip-flops to a job interview. Same logic applies here—your brochure needs to match what you’re using it for.

1. The Classic Tri-Fold

You’ve seen these a million times—folded twice into six neat panels. Why? Because they work. Perfect for:

  • Restaurants (menus, special offers)

  • Gyms (class schedules, membership deals)

  • Estate agents (property listings)

2. Bi-Fold (Simple but Effective)

Just one fold, four panels. Clean, straightforward, and cheaper to print. Great for:

  • Event invites

  • Basic service lists (like a plumber’s offerings)

  • Small business introductions

3. Z-Fold (For the Creative Types)

Folds back and forth like a zigzag. Feels more interactive—good if you’re telling a story (e.g., a travel agency showing off holiday packages).

4. Gate-Fold (The "Fancy" One)

Opens like double doors to reveal a big central image. Feels luxurious. Use for:

  • High-end products (watches, jewellery)

  • Premium services (private clinics, boutique hotels)

5. Die-Cut (Stand Out or Go Home)

Shaped differently—round edges, custom cuts, even pop-ups. Costs more, but if you’re in fashion, design, or anything artsy? Worth it.

 

What Makes a Brochure Actually Good?

Forget fancy terms. A great brochure comes down to three things:

It’s easy on the eyes.

Big, bold headlines.
Plenty of white space (no cramming!).
High-res images (blurry = bad).

It tells people what to do next.

"Call now."
"Visit our website."
"Limited offer—grab it before [date]."

It feels good in the hands.

Thin, cheap paper = trash bin.
Thick, quality stock = "Hmm, nice."
