Rep Power: 19 | Making a brochure I'm trying to make a brochure on "reasons to use lotion". Can someone tell me how to create something like that in Word. I was thinking something like a tri-fold brochure. I know I've done it before but I can't remember how! |

Rep Power: 35 | Re: Making a brochure There is a free open source program you could try that might be easier. It used to be you had to download ghostscript first if you are using windows, not sure if they fixed that in the newer versions. http://www.scribus.net/

Rep Power: 46 | Re: Making a brochure from my experience nobody is going to read a tri-fold brochure. and if they did the last place you want them reading it is in the tanning room before or after a session. They take long enough in there. LOL the best thing would be a laminated sign in each room. actually NO the best thing is to offer a lotion discount with a tanning package. AND MENTION IT EVERYTIME that will increase sales and open up the opportunity to lotion discussion while they are in buying mode. i do 20% off with a package everytime. ill PM u something
