Today every entrepreneur has to face heavy competition in order to survive and grow his/her business. While the marketing departments of big organizations have large amounts of funds at their disposal, small businesses need to make the most of their limited marketing budgets. For such businesses, it is essential to choose marketing tools that cost less, but are highly effective. Business brochure is one such tool. The benefits of an effectively designed business brochure include:

Effective online as well as offline marketing: The best thing about business brochures is that they are equally effective for online as well as offline marketing. Once you get your brochure designed with the help of a good local designer, you can offer it online in a downloadable format and offline in a printed format.
Reinforcement of advertising and email marketing messages: Often advertising and email marketing messages are short and offer limited information about the products and services that you offer. Business brochures are a great way to reinforce this message as they provide detailed information on your business as well as products and services. Effective brochures not only offer information, but also persuade potential customers to take desired action.
Credibility: Impressive business brochures provide credibility to your business. Even if you run an online business and do not have a physical office, good brochures make your business real and credible in the eyes of potential customers.
Flexibility: Brochures are highly flexible and allow you to make choices based on your requirements and budget. You can select the design, the type of printing, the quality of paper and the like to create a brochure that is most suitable for your business.
Control: You are in complete control of the message you want to send and the image you want to create for your business using brochures. Unlike other advertising media like television commercials, you are also in complete control of who receives your business brochures. Well designed brochures are an extremely effective marketing tool, especially when you have a small target audience.

Business brochures are a seasoned and effective business promotion tool. Effectively designed brochures are powerful tools for conveying your message to prospective customers and persuading them to conduct business with you. The design of your brochure determines its effectiveness. It is advisable to take the help of an experienced local designer to create an effective business brochure. Contact Crawford Designs LLC, so we can help you develop a great brochure for your business today.

A top-notch website designer must be a jack-of-all-trades, excelling in programming, graphic design, email marketing, media development, social media integration and more. Here's what you should be looking for in an outstanding webmaster:

A diverse portfolio demonstrating knowledge and skills in visual design, web graphics, and programming.
Knowledge of standards, technologies and tools. The ideal webmaster knows what is possible and required to implement certain features, but also knows that the latest and greatest craze may not be suitable for a specific company or client.
Efficient. Webmasters who really know their trade build sites more efficiently.
Social media savvy. Your website is just the beginning. Establishing a strong brand presence online requires a blog and a following on social networking venues.
Expertise in developing non-web templates, such as those for e-newsletters and e-mail marketing materials using third-party marketing platforms such as iContact, MailChimp and Constant Contact.
Responsive. Your webmaster must acknowledge all of your requests in a timely manner and capture, organize, schedule and report on request submissions.

What is a QR Code?
A QR Code is a two-dimensional bar code created by Japanese corporation Denso-Wave in 1994. The "QR" is derived from "Quick Response", as the creator intended the code to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed.

How do I read a QR Code?
If you have a smartphone, go to the app store and search for a QR code reader. You’ll find several free apps. We like the AT&T QR Code Reader. Run the app and then hold your phone’s camera over a code to read it. Most codes you’ll come across have a URL encoded, so chances are when you read the QR code it will take you to a web page. These codes link offline information to online content. A QR code can be printed on packaging, magazines, and promotional items to enable smartphone users to go directly to a web page without having to type in the web address. These little pictures truly are worth a thousand words!

How do I create a QR code?
There are several QR code generating sites out there. We like Delivr. www.Delivr.com generates QR codes quickly, and allows for immediate downloads of PNG and EPS files.

Go ahead and try it. Open your App and click on the QR code shown above. Then enter for your chance to win!
