Using custom folders for your presentations and business events raises your level of professionalism in your customer's eyes. Not only that, but you can use the folders as one more tool for branding your business. Here's how:
Make Your Folder Stand Out
If you want to make your folder memorable, create a custom folder that is one of a kind and reflects your company's personality. If your business is traditional, you will probably want to stick to neutral or dark colors. But even with a traditional business, you can add little unexpected touches to make an impression on people. For instance, you could use a dark folder with metallic lettering. On the other hand, if your business is more cutting edge, the sky is the limit. You will probably want bright, bold colors and maybe even an unusual shape.
Choose a Custom Structure
Most folders are 9 inches by 12 inches, but you can order different sizes to fit your needs. You can also choose the interior pocket sizes and shapes; pockets are good for storing brochures, pamphlets, and any other company information you want. Something you can add to your custom folder is a third flap in the center; it can be used for organization, notes, or just to make the folder stronger. Finally, you will need to choose between a glossy or matte finish; both are durable, so the choice is a matter of preference.
Include Your Logo
On the front of the folder, you'll want to print your logo. Remember this is an opportunity to brand your company. Also, somewhere on the folder, on the front, inside, or back, you need to include your contact information.
Use Folders for Presentations
Folders add a professional touch to business presentations. They can be used for in-house presentations to impress your boss or for presentations to prospective clients to add that little bit more you need to close the deal. Folders probably won't make or break your presentation, but if all the other guys have custom folders, you don't want not having them to count against you.
Use Folders at Business Events
You can also use custom folders at various events where you want to hand out company information. Business expos, fairs, and college campuses are all potential places to hand out folders full of your information.
