Supporting detail, limitations and contact path.
What you gain: a physical piece that is designed to communicate and prompt action, not simply fill the page with attractive elements.
01 · THE METHOD
How does Gibson turn a flyer brief into print-ready artwork?
Gibson defines the audience and response action, builds the reading hierarchy, prepares a reviewable proof and records approval before the final production handoff.
- 01Audience
Define who must understand and act
The brief names the intended audience, operating context, physical channel and decision the piece should support. A flyer cannot speak clearly when it tries to serve every person and purpose.
- 02Message
Agree the proposition, evidence and response action
Gibson identifies the main promise, supporting facts, required wording and next action. Customer-supplied claims, prices, approvals and regulated statements remain the customer's responsibility unless another review is expressly scoped.
- 03Structure
Build the reading hierarchy for the format
The headline, scan path, supporting copy, response action and production constraints are arranged for the agreed size, fold or panel sequence. The hierarchy must work before decoration is treated as finished design.
- 04Proof
Review one controlled artwork proof
The proof is checked against the brief, brand assets, copy, contact details and production specification. Revision rounds, decision makers and timing are confirmed in the written scope rather than assumed on the page.
- 05Approve
Record approval before the production handoff
The customer approves the final content and artwork. Gibson then supplies the agreed production file or hands it into a separately scoped Printing or Letterbox workflow.
02 · INSPECT THE HIERARCHY
See how a physical piece earns the next ten seconds.
This annotated specimen explains the reading sequence without presenting invented client work. The actual proof must use the customer's approved content, brand assets and production constraints.
The reader should know within seconds whether the piece is relevant.
Do not make five services compete for the headline.
Give the reader enough context to understand what happens next.
A campaign number appears only when Call Tracking is separately in scope.
Readable hierarchy
Headline, support and action follow the intended scan path.
Controlled content
Required facts and approvals are visible before sign-off.
Production handoff
Final output follows the selected format and printer specification.
03 · WHAT YOU RECEIVE
Four practical outputs, agreed before design starts.
The proposal states what is included, who supplies the words and brand files, how revisions work and where the finished artwork goes.
Brief record
Audience, objective, format, response action, supplied assets, required wording and decision owner.
Artwork proof
A reviewable visual showing the content hierarchy, brand treatment, copy and agreed contact or response path.
Approval record
The accepted proof and the person authorised to approve content, artwork and any customer-specific claims.
Production handoff
The agreed final file and specification for the selected printer or the separately scoped Gibson production path.
HOW THE WORK STAYS CLEAR
4Brief, proof, approval and final file
Each stage gives the customer something concrete to review before the next stage begins.
This explains the design process, not a promised campaign result.CUSTOMER SAMPLES
OPENA real sample will include its original brief
Gibson will publish customer artwork only when the customer approves it and the claims can be explained accurately.
Made-up examples are not presented as customer work.04 · IS THE BRIEF READY?
Know the audience, offer and approver before the first proof.
Gibson confirms who supplies the words, which format is being designed, how revisions work, who approves the proof and where the final file goes.
Good fit
- You know the audience and the action the piece should prompt.
- A named person can supply assets and approve the final proof.
- The format, print or distribution path can be decided before production.
Poor fit
- The offer, audience and required claims are still unresolved.
- No one owns final copy, legal or brand approval.
- You expect unlimited revisions or production before the proof is approved.
What Gibson needs
- Audience, objective, format, quantity context and delivery channel.
- Logo, brand files, contact details, images and required copy or facts.
- Decision maker, deadline drivers, printer specification and approval constraints.
What changes the scope
- Copy development, format, panel count, supplied asset quality and illustration needs.
- Number of decision makers, revision path and production specification.
- Printing, Letterbox delivery or campaign call tracking requested alongside design.
WHAT SHAPES THE QUOTE
Design quoted separately from print, delivery and trackingThe quote confirms copy, format, concepts, revisions, final files and timing. Printing, Letterbox distribution and Call Tracking appear as separate items when requested.
05 · QUESTIONS BEFORE DESIGN
Flyer and brochure design questions, answered directly.
These answers match the structured FAQ data.
What is included in a flyer or brochure design brief?+
The brief should identify the audience, objective, format, main message, evidence, response action, supplied assets, required wording, approval owner and production destination. Gibson confirms whether the scope covers flyer artwork, brochure artwork or another print design service, plus the deliverables, revision process and timing, before work begins.
Does Gibson write the flyer copy?+
Copy development or copy refinement can be scoped. Gibson needs approved business facts, prices, terms, credentials and required wording from the customer. The proposal states who drafts, verifies and approves the final copy.
Which flyer and brochure formats can be designed?+
Common requirements include single or double-sided flyers and folded brochures, but the correct format depends on content volume, reading sequence, production method and physical use. Size, fold, panels and printer specification are confirmed in the brief.
How many design concepts and revision rounds are included?+
There is no universal number on this page. The proposal confirms the concept route, proof process, included revision rounds, decision makers and how changes outside the accepted brief are handled.
How long does flyer design take?+
Timing depends on brief quality, copy and asset readiness, format, review availability, revisions and current capacity. Gibson confirms proof and final-artwork targets after reviewing the actual requirement.
What files will I receive?+
The agreed handoff may include print-ready artwork as a production PDF and any other output named in the proposal. File type, dimensions, bleed, colour setup, image treatment and printer requirements are confirmed for the selected production path.
Can I use my own printer?+
Yes, when the handoff is scoped for the printer and specification you nominate. Gibson can also quote Printing separately. The receiving printer should confirm its current production requirements before final artwork is released.
Can Gibson also print and distribute the piece?+
Printing and Letterbox distribution can be scoped as separate services in the same brief. Design approval does not prove printing quality or delivery completion, so each service retains its own specification, evidence and responsibility boundary.
Can the artwork include a tracked phone number?+
Yes, when a campaign number and call tracking are separately included and configured before artwork approval. Calls to that number can support campaign response reporting; design alone does not create call data or attribution.
Who approves prices, claims and regulated wording?+
The customer remains responsible for approving business facts, prices, terms, credentials, permissions and legal or industry-specific wording unless a separate qualified review is expressly included. Gibson records the approval owner in the brief.
What does flyer or brochure design cost?+
Pricing is scope-led because copy depth, format, panels, asset quality, revisions and production requirements vary. The written quote identifies the design deliverables and separates any Printing, Letterbox or Call Tracking work.
Can you show a sample design before I enquire?+
Yes. This page includes an illustrative hierarchy specimen so you can see how Gibson organises the promise, supporting detail and response action. It is a teaching example rather than customer work. Customer artwork will be published only with permission and enough context to explain the original brief accurately.
06 · CHOOSE THE NEXT STEP
Bring the audience, action and format.
Tell Gibson who the piece is for, what they should understand or do, what assets exist and where the artwork will go. Albert or the senior team will confirm the useful scope and next step.
