Tenant Link Newsletter


We print and design a few newsletters for Southampton based companies. Newsletters are a great way of regularly keeping in touch with your customers.

Above is a newsletter we designed and printed for Southampton based Tenant Link, who are an independent Letting Agency with 3 offices around Southampton.

Newsletters are generally formatted as a double sided A4 or a folded A3. However this newsletter has been designed on a roll folded A4 leaflet. This means the newsletter can either be mailed out directly as it is, i.e. just putting a stamp and address label onto the leaflet, or can be easily included with other correspondence in a DL envelope.

My Boat Share Leaflet


At this time of year we do quite a bit of work of companies exhibiting at Southampton Boat Show. We can help them with flyers, exhibition stands, posters, invitations, business cards or as in the above example, leaflets.

We designed the above leaflet for Southampton based MyBoatShare. It offers membership sailing as an alternative to owning a boat. From just £299 a month you can have the use of a fleet of modern 31ft to 39ft sailing yachts for up to 49 full days per year.

This 3 panel A5 leaflet packs a lot of information into an easy handout - great for exhibitions like Southampton Boat Show. So if you need a handout but haven't got enough information for an 8 page booklet then a 6 page 3 panel A5 leaflet could be the answer.

Pure Home Technology Stationery


The importance of stationery design is often overlooked. Customers often ask for something "simple" without really thinking about how the stationery is to be used. For example, if you're sending a tender to a large company, along with other potential suppliers, then it's vital that your stationery not only looks professional but also stands out from the crowd.

One of the ways to make your stationery grab attention is to use both sides. Above is some double sided stationery we designed for Winchester based company Pure Home Technology. They design and install home cinema, multi-room audio video and smarthome technology.

So if you're thinking about getting some business stationery then give us a call or visit the Southampton design studio to see some of our inspirational designs. What's more if you order any size, style or quantity of Letterheads and Compliment Slips, then add any number of Business Cards (any size, style or quantity) we take 20% off the total print price.

Shaped Flyers/ Cut-Out Flyers


With any flyer the first thing you need to do is grab the attention of your target audience. One very effective way to do this is to add a shape!

Here are a couple of recent examples - a key shaped flyer for the Winchester lock smith Winlocks and a van shaped flyer for Southampton property maintenance company Appsolute Solutions Limited. Bespoke cut-out shapes are normally an expensive addition to your marketing campaign. Not any more. With our revolutionary techniques, you'll pay a fraction of the usual costs and make your marketing stand out from the clutter.

So what shape could you use? Estate Agent? How about a house-shaped flyer? Denist? When did you last see a tooth-shaped flyer?

Winchester Sports & Spine Voucher


Winchester Sports & Spine use a variety of techniques to treat a wide range of conditions such as back pain and sports injuries. They have recently moved and wanted to send a letter to all their clients informing them of the move plus an incentive to visit the new premises.

So we designed the above voucher letterhead. This is a letter with a perforated tear off voucher at the bottom. Vouchers are a great way to get new customers to try out your service or to reward existing customers for their loyalty. We have a variety of different products that can incorporate vouchers such as voucher cards, perforated flyers etc. So if you are thinking of creating and incentive for new and old customers then let us show you what we can do.

Wastemasters Southampton Flyer


Above is an example of how we turned a customer’s ideas into an actual piece marketing material that can be used to professionally promote a business.

Wastemasters (Southern) Ltd, based in Fareham – Hampshire, provide tipper and grabber lorry services to the building and construction industry.

Like many of our customers Wastemasters had a great idea for promoting their business. But knew if they tried to produce their own flyers they would come across as amateurish, which is not a great way to build confidence when selling your services to prospective customers. However by using our Graphic Design service they have been able to win new business with this well designed flyer.

Southampton Restaurant Business Card


We are often asked for a "simple" business card. I think what most business owners want is a business card that not only gives propective customers their contact details but a business card that also helps sell the business. Afterall is you just want to pass on contact details why not use a bit of paper?

The above images show the initial brief given to us by our customer (My Dreams in Southampton) on the left and the final design and printed business card on the right. The cardboard effect is printed onto the business card - click on the image to see this better. The business card on the right is far more interesting than a bit of paper and importantly through its design gives prospective customer confidence in the business.
