The Program:
Whether it appears in print or PDF form, you want your one-sheet to convey your services and talents with maximum appeal. How do you accomplish that in a single page or two? Two experts who have created lots of stand-out one-sheets will share their techniques so you can better craft a one-sheet that gets you noticed.
Karen and Barbara work together to create "get-hired" one-sheets for speakers and entrepreneurs. Karen had her own graphic design firm in the Denver area since 1990, and Barbara has offered editorial services since 1994, but their professional association goes back to the mid-1980s. They both specialize in making books, one-sheets, and other marketing materials the best they can be. You'll receive handouts from this session that come from Karen's book Turn Eye Appeal into Buy Appeal -- How to Easily Transform Your Marketing Pieces into Dazzling, Persuasive Sales Tools!
You will learn:
- Who your messages should be directed to
- What written and graphic elements to include
- How to make your one-sheet stand out above the rest
- Three ways to avoid the most common mistakes
- How to "get over yourself" and start crafting a powerful one-sheet
