Tip 01- Create Attention-grabbing Product Images

Product photos and visuals play an essential role in making potential customers find out about the promotions and sales going on in your upcoming deals. So it is best to make product images in your flyers / leaflets as appealing as possible. As the year end is best known for major offers and discounts. Customers would expect your business to offer these kinds of promotions. The best way to make the most out of product images is to add labels with a customized design and text. 

Tip 02 - Prepare a Flash Sales Promotional Ad

A flash sale creates a sense of urgency for customers to purchase immediately. A good flash sale promotion ad can increase sales at the heat of the moment and create awareness. For example, including a call to action in your flyer is mandatory, with words like “for a limited time only!” or “buy now!” for increased sense of urgency. For flash sales, it is best to make the promotion short as well, after all it is called a flash sale! 

Tip 03 - Include a Voucher or Coupon into Your Flyer / Leaflet

Speaking of year-end deals, flyers or leaflets are flexible mediums that can also come with a voucher. After all, people always love discount coupons. If flash sales aren’t enough, you can also include a coupon into your flyer design! Just be sure that the coupons / vouchers come with a great discount.

Tip 04 - Recurring Sales

Recurring sales can offer great deals especially in the year-end season such as Black Friday, Christmas, and New Year. This is the time where people wait most of the year expecting year end deals to buy products. A recurring sale generates pent-up demands, and people are willing to spend when it hits. During this holiday season, it is the perfect time to distribute your flyers / leaflets when your year-end recurring sale comes around!
