After doing some research here on AR I decided to explore the possiblities of doing a personal brochure. After all our business cards can only say so much about us, right?
I found some good blogs on the subject and even some nice examples. I first tried to build my brochure using my Broderbound Printmaster program but for some reason it crashed just about everytime I was finished with the brochure. So after doing some more reading I found that I could make what I was after using Microsoft Publisher. Ok, I admit it, I use Word and Excel all the time and am pretty familiar with those programs but I had not mastered Publisher. Well after a couple of hours last night I had what I wanted as a finished product.
The reason I made these was that I wanted something like a resume' that I could hand out at an upcoming FSBO and first time buyer seminar that I am putting together. I have my business cards which I am very found of but I wanted something that the FSBO seller or the first time buyer could take home and get to know a little about me. After all, you would want to know something about someone you were trusting such a large responsibility to, wouldn't you?
I am now thinking of expanding on this idea. Making individual brochures for the homes I have listed. Everyone does the flier (some black and white, some color, but all the same) and I thought this would be different and maybe just maybe catch that buyers eye. Not to mention I think it would be a definete hit with the seller. Just think...something they could give out to the people they know showcasing their homes.
Thanks everyone for the great blogs full of ideas! I love AR!
