While designing, creating, printing, and distributing a custom catalog may seem overwhelming at first, it needn&#8217;t be. Once you break it down into smaller achievable steps, you&#8217;ll soon see that it&#8217;s a project that&#8217;s well within your reach\u200a\u2014\u200aand your budget. Let&#8217;s dive in.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2304fa2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2304fa2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Start with a strategy<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6d42d45 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6d42d45\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The key to success in catalog development is to start with a well thought out strategy which defines the specific purpose of your catalog, who it&#8217;s aimed at, and how you&#8217;ll get it to them. The purpose should be as objective, clear, and unequivocal as possible. The more honed down and specific you can make it, the better.<\/p><p>So, &#8220;promote our brand&#8221; won&#8217;t really cut the mustard; whereas, &#8220;increase awareness of our autumn clothes collection among affluent 25- to 35-year-old working mothers in the X district&#8221; would give you something you can work with. Make sure that you can sum up your catalog&#8217;s aim in a simple, comprehensive, single-sentence mission statement like the one above. You can then use that statement to guide you through everything that follows in the choices you make about the design, printing, and distribution of your targeted product catalog.<\/p><p>Don&#8217;t rush too quickly to a conclusion. Take time over this vital step. Brainstorm, try out ideas, change things out and reframe, edit, and consult until you come up with exactly what you need. Everything else, including your distribution strategy, springs from this mission statement.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa4de6a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fa4de6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Compose your catalog content<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d1e717e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d1e717e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Any effective product catalog depends on a combination of strong visuals and powerful text. The visual and textual elements of your product catalog content need to be devised, composed, and balanced with great care to ensure that they have maximum impact. Your content is the core of your catalog and it has a lot of important work to do:<\/p><ul><li>Convey essential information in a clear and concise manner<\/li><li>Engage the emotions of the reader<\/li><li>Build confidence and trust in the brand<\/li><li>Lead prospects into your sales funnel<\/li><li>Integrate with your wider marketing and promotional strategies<\/li><li>Be eye-catching, distinctive, and memorable<\/li><li>Inspire action<\/li><\/ul><p>Content which can do all of that isn&#8217;t created idly on a whim! If you don&#8217;t have the talent in-house to do the needed photography, create the graphics, and write the text content of your catalog, you&#8217;ll need to outsource to a competent and reputable freelancer. When choosing a freelancer for either the visual or written content, make sure that you vet them with care. A trustworthy photographer or writer will be happy to discuss your needs and tailor their offer accordingly while supplying you with a verifiable portfolio of recent work and client testimonials.<\/p><p>One way to make sure that this outsourcing doesn&#8217;t push you over your budget is to spend plenty of time doing market research, exploring what your competitors have done with their most recent catalogs, and devising as detailed and complete project proposal and content profile as you can. The less research and development your freelancer has to do, the faster the turnaround and the less expensive it will be.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-445bc26 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"445bc26\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Designing a product catalog<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a8ffd4a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a8ffd4a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once you have your content prepared\u200a\u2014\u200aincluding your product photography, your branded graphics, and your product descriptions, editorial, and other text\u200a\u2014\u200ayou can design your catalog&#8217;s pages, appearance, and layout.

Leave plenty of white space around objects. Arrange text and images in such a way as they lead the reader&#8217;s eye easily from one to the other, guiding their &#8220;journey&#8221; through the page. Clarity is far more important than quantity in a catalog. It&#8217;s better to include a smaller number of products that sell than stuff the catalog so full of information that the potential consumer tires of trying to make sense of it and leaves before they take action.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bf76b6b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bf76b6b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">2.

Choose a font and size for headings, subheadings, and body text and stick to it throughout. Consistency is key to making the textual elements easy to read and understand. Your reader should absorb information and persuasive arguments, not struggle to decipher the words!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2c9cfe1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2c9cfe1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">3.

It goes almost without saying that the photographs must be to a professional level, beautifully lit, and in high resolution. But more than that, they need to speak to the hearts and minds of your target demographic. So consider creating contextualized and dynamic photographs of your products where appropriate. For example, garden tools and furniture can be photographed in a beautiful garden being enjoyed by people who represent the aspirations of your market. Likewise, say, a high-end off-road mountain bike could by photographed in action on a dirt trail. Other products may be best photographed in the studio with a neutral background. It all depends on your products and your intended consumer, but give this serious thought and take photos which won&#8217;t just show, but sell your products to the people most likely to buy them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ae4ed2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3ae4ed2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How to choose an affordable printer for your catalog<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-459eb15 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"459eb15\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once you&#8217;ve designed your catalog, you need to get it printed. The choice of printer can make or break the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of your catalog campaign. If you&#8217;ve followed our advice, you&#8217;ll have chosen and been working with your printer long before you get to this stage. But when you choose your printer, these are the most important factors to evaluate before you commit to working with them:<\/p><ul><li>For a small business, make sure that they offer short run catalog printing, so you only need to print the number of catalogs that will be useful to you<\/li><li>Check their credentials and that they have a track record not just as printers, but with printing catalogs<\/li><li>Make sure that they offer personalized customer care and follow-up<\/li><li>Check that they can offer you no-obligation quote and a best price guarantee<\/li><li>Choose a printer that offers support with the technical aspects of production and will provide a &#8220;proof&#8221; copy of your catalog to check before you commit to a print run<\/li><\/ul><p>You may have a printer that you&#8217;ve already established a relationship with or prefer to shop around before you decide.

Which you choose will depend on the size and weight of the catalog itself, your target market, and your distribution budget. Some of the easiest and most cost-effective catalog distribution methods are listed below:<\/p><ul><li>In-store: stacks of catalogs your customers can pick up in-store either positioned near certain product lines or at the point-of-sale<\/li><li>From your website: giving your website or e-commerce store visitors the option to order a physical catalog through the post is a powerful technique<\/li><li>Direct mailing: so long as you do your market research and target your mailing campaigns well, direct mail is one of the most effective catalog distribution methods with proven returns on investment<\/li><li>Street distribution: having representatives hand out the catalog on the high street to customers who fall within your target demographic is another option which requires little expense and can work well, especially for a local business<\/li><\/ul><p>Whichever distribution method\u200a\u2014\u200aor mix of methods\u200a\u2014\u200ayou choose, remember to keep track of how many catalogs you send out, to whom, and what your returns are. The easiest way to ensure the traceability of customer actions back to your catalog campaign is to add QR and AR codes, which attribute a unique code to identify the customer and the catalog when they are scanned. Another possibility is to include discount codes and gift cards within the catalog.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f8748a7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f8748a7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Talk to us!<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-db18d1b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"db18d1b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As you can see, with the right planning and strategizing, there&#8217;s no reason your business shouldn&#8217;t be able to design, print, and distribute a printed product catalog which will boost your brand visibility, drive sales, and give you a good return on your initial investment.
