Hello, I'm looking for a designer for a double sided tri-fold brochure in full color. I will provide the logo, just need a great layout to go with our existing site/logo. We are looking for something catchy, colorful, Texan, bold, fun!

We are a maid service company that offers grocery and dry cleaning delivery. We only provide service in Texas and we have a program similar to American Express Points or airline miles. Perhaps the design can take that into consideration.

Our site is at Lonestarmaids.com. You can download our logo from http://www.lonestarmaids.com/logo/print_rgb.jpg. Our font is Rio Grande WBW.

Thanks,
Paula

Thanks for the contest Paula. I think if you put your font into a zip file, you should be able to upload it to the forum by clicking the "browse" button when you reply to this message.

How are you going to handle the printing of this piece? Professional printing? Any specs you can provide would be greatly helpful (example: 4 color both sides?, full bleed?, trim/bleed/safety dimensions?, if pro printed can your printer supply a template so we can be sure it's print ready?) You know, the technical stuff. :blink:

Also, can you provide some direction in terms of content or should we just randomly pull text from the website? (I guess "randomly" isn't the right term, more "educated guessing" on our part).

The more specifics you can provide will allow us to get closer to the target in a cost effective manner.

Thanks!

Hi,
Just a couple more questions, if your are planning to have this project professionally printed and your printer doesn't supply the tri fold template, we will need to know as to what format he uses such a quark or indesign.
As for the content (your text) it would be very helpful if you could supply us with this.

Thanks

I've enclosed a bare bones brochure with the content we will want to incorporate into the design.

The printer will accept work in Indesign; we want 4 color, full bleed. We also have a color printer that we will print brochures to...so if it is possible to also get this file as a pdf for easy printing, that would be great.

The printer does not have a template. Brochure measures 8.5 x 11 inches.

My brochure idea...
It was designed in InDesign, and I chose not to bleed the design to keep printing costs down. It usually costs more to print a full-bleed flyer because the flyer must be printed on a larger sheet size (9" x 12") then cut down to finished size
(8-1/2" x 11).

I'm not sure what your budget it for printing, therefore I was trying to be considerate.

Please advise.

We would like to award the project to cre8tor.

Kimber, we would like the white space on the brochure to appear a light brown. preferably #e6e4d4.

Thanks, we look forward to the deliverables this evening.
