That, my friend, is when you should consider an Info or Sell Sheet!

Like many other print materials, brand consistency should be one of your first considerations when laying out an Info Sheet! Traditionally, a document like this works best as a two or three-column layout. Let your creative side go wild! Just make sure that your branding is represented in a similar fashion to the rest of your collateral.

The key function of an Info or Sell Sheet is to distinguish your product or service from your competition. To make it easier for your reader consider your content in an order of Feature and then Benefit.

  •  A Feature is something unique about your product or service
  • A Benefit is something unique about your product or your service and what makes your business the perfect fit

To make this delineation even easier, consider making your Info or Sell Sheet two-sided; this is not only a clear separation of the Feature and Benefit but also a simple visual distinction to make it easier for your customers to follow.

There’s definitely a lot to consider about an Info or Sell Sheet and here at Printchomp, we’re here to help! The standard size for an Info or Sell Sheet is 8.5” x 11”, but stock materials and other options can make your collateral exactly what you are looking for!

  • Pick one or two-sided
  • Stock weights at either 80lb or 100lb – Matte or glossy
  • Options galore; fold options, Pantone colours, even finishes like UV or AQ coating

Needing a little help? Start your project with our Info Sheet template. While you’re there, why not check out the other products available through Printchomp and make it easier to order your Info or Sales Sheets (and more) online.

All things combined, there are a lot of things to consider when making your Info or Sell Sheet, but with the right layout and print, you’ll be able to set yourself apart from the competition!
