A brochure, especially if it is in full colour, is an excellent way to show off your company and its services and products. It makes for excellent bragging rights too if you have a great looking brochure and at NW Design this is something we're passionate about. There are actually two popular sizes of brochures 11.69 inches x 8.27 inches and 11.69 inches x 16.54 inches. We can however design and print DL tri fold leaflets that are popular for businesses on a budget. Choosing the size of your brochure is dependent on what you are going to use it for. Think about for some moments: - Do you need your brochure to fit into a card rack? - Do you need the brochure to act like a self-mailing envelope? - Will the brochure be folded and used in presentations? ...

Another site goes live this week, this time instead of a CMS managed site, KKThompson Solicitors Wigan wanted a simple yet attractive brochure style website. The main reason businesses choose a brochure style website is that the message they're trying to convey is simple and one that does not need to change too often. Once the brochure style website design is looking as it should, and the web pages have the relevant content on them, then there's no real need to change this over a period of time. In essence, it is like a physical brochure except it is viewed online, and it is most suited to smaller businesses. While many companies want to control their website content and be able to make changes as and when they would like, if the business is only going to make changes very rarely then it is more cost effective to have a simple brochure style website compared to a content managed site. ...

Business cards, letterheads and compliment slips, the heart of business communication and every time you use one, you’re sending out a message about your business. At NW Design, we can make sure this message is a positive one with clean, consistent design which reflects your business. Does your business need a refresh? If so we can create new branding for your stationery or we can design and print stationery which complements your existing brand. You can choose exactly what business stationery you require as our flexible service means you only pay for what you need, whether that’s a new design for a business card or a complete stationery overhaul. There’s no point having an outstanding design printed on a flimsy piece of paper so we only use high quality paper for our stationery. Make that first impression count and our 400gsm business cards with  lamination do just that. Quality business cards do make a difference to potential new customers which is why we're not a fan of those cards that look like they've been printed on cereal packets. We also design other stationery items such as envelopes and postcards on request so just let us know what you’re after. Visit our portfolio to view some of the business cards, letterheads and compliment slips we’ve designed or call us to find out more about our business stationery services on 0161 327 2131. ...

#ThrowBackThursday where we dig things up from the past and reminisce on days gone by. Back in 1999 (can you believe that was 15 years ago!) we created these tickets for Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Pleasureland and Frontierland. As a theme park fan I love looking back over these and remember visiting Southport Pleasureland and Frontierland at Morecambe which is now sadly defunct and was closed the following season. I believe the polo tower still exists at Morecambe, it houses a telephone mast which was leased for 20 years. You can join in on out ThrowBackThursdays on our social sites Facebook and Twitter. If these bring back memories then please share the post. ...
