Nashville-Davidson 4 color postcards An Easy Way To Advertise

Full color post cards provide an easy method for advertising your products, services and business to the public. In fact, postcards are a terrific method for generating leads inexpensively.

Tips for Images from the Internet
Jpeg and Gif files are Internet images, saved with a compression process designed to remove color and visual quality to achieve small file sizes. Internet images are usually saved at a resolution of 72 dpi for quick screen loads and will not print clear and crisp on a printing press.


Sending full color postcards directly to your current customers and prospective customers is a simple method for marketing your services inexpensively. There are some tricks of the trade however, you can master to make sure your postcard campaign packs the most punch.

Q: Will the printers match a sample I print out on my own printer, or a previously printed sample?

A: They will try their best, but because printers and output devices vary wildly, there is no guarantee that your finished piece will look exactly like your printed sample. Even from one commercial printing firm to another, there can be noticeable differences in results.

Printers will print from your files, and there is no way they can guarantee it will match a previously printed sample. They will, however, do their best to produce a top-notch piece. In particular, inkjet and laser prints are known to look substantially different than true offset lithography. The final product they produce for you will not match the output from your inkjet printer -- it will look better and more professional!

Q: How should I take pictures with my digital camera?

A: It is very important to make sure that the camera is set to the highest quality setting possible. This means that if you can only save one image on the picture card instead of 12, 64 or 128 images, then this is good! You want to create the best quality picture that the camera can make. This will mean large file sizes and slow downloads from the camera itself, but it will get you the best possible results from your camera.

Digital camera images are on 72 DPI, so they should be taken in the largest pixel dimension possible. ie… 2500 x 1500. Images should be at 300dpi in their final size in the layout! So you will need to convert them from 72 dpi to 300 once you add them to your layout.


Q: What is a bleed?

A: A Bleed is when the color, copy, or image extends beyond the trim marks on a page. If you want your color, text or image to go all the way to the edge after trimming, it is recommend bleeding or extending beyond the final page size by I/8". So if your final page size is 8.5" x 11"and your color, type or image is full bleed (extending beyond each of the 4 edges), the file submitted for printing needs to be 8.75" x 11.25".)



Tips For Creating An Effective Postcard Campaign
Here are some tips to consider when creating your postcard campaign.

Postcards have to look good, so take some time to design them professionally.

A Nashville-Davidson, Tennessee postcard campaign will only benefit you when you offer customers something that encourages their response. You should include a "call to action" when creating your postcard campaign.

Make sure your message is simple, concise and clear so your customer is more likely to read than throw away your postcard.

If you need to, download a template for creating custom postcards for your business.

Consider distributing postcards manually or through free card displays available at many retail outlets and commercial stores or chains.

Choose a suitable print vendor and find out what their needs are with regard to postcard printing, including how much bleed is necessary for color images.

Tip: Should I Use One or Two Spaces to start a new sentence?
This is one of the most frequently asked design questions. Should I put one or two spaces after each sentence? The industry standard is to put only one space between sentences.
