Flyer Design Request!

[mentrioso]

Hi guys,

Been struggling for sometime to help my Dad create a stylish flyer for the family business.

It's a Car Repairs garage and he wants a nice double-sided A6 flyer made up.

Here's our site http://www.fairwaymotorschingford.co.uk (again, my poor design!)

It needs to have basic info: name, address, no., website - with one side stating "Now doing Motorcycle MOTs - just £30"

Other info on it could be things such as:
£45 MOT
Van hire special weekend rates
Free Brake Check

But all of this (and images we have) are on the site...any special offers from there can be used on the leaflets - or perhaps one side having the homepage text on?

Would be great if anyone can help us do something that looks professional!

Thank you so much.

Sam.

hi,
i am on the other side of the pond so may not completly understand...

generally to me flyers are about 8x11 appx....

this flyer... A6 ... to me that about 4.a"x5.8" size ... is that the size your wanting?

that almost like a post card size .... or is it going to be used more or less like a
business card type ??/ what paper were you looking at using?

Hi - thanks for getting back to me...

A6 is 4 x 6 size - precisely a post-card size.

Preferably a two-sided design so I can get them printed off on card (a design on each side) - (2mm bleed trim i believe)

Thanks x

Firstly your site looks pretty good and has a lot of potential.

now on to business, keep your flyers simple to the point etc. make them easy to read and make the offers look irresistible

surfprint can print your leaflets and they can also design them for you if you wish here are some prices. http://www.surfprint.co.uk/dnn/A6leafletprices/tabid/76/Default.aspx

hi guys -
thanks for your help - all greatly appreciated.

SurfPrint was down when I looked?

Yeah - the template I used does have a lot of potential but I am strugglin to push it further where it is now. Suggestions? (I thought a banner was the way forward?) Your Dbaouto site really comes together with the banner I think...
