Designing a PVC banner, poster, backdrop, or pull-up banner can be tough.

This is especially true if you lack design experience. If you want to design on your own, focus on these four key areas for a great layout.

With our top tips, you will catch the eyes of your customers.

 

1. Colour for text and background

Color is key in design. You can’t ignore it if you want a roller banner that effectively shares your message. There is nothing to be gained by just picking any arbitrary color for your design and going with it!

A good color scheme helps you stand out. It should match your corporate style and not clash with your logo. Plus, you have to think about how readable your text will be on top of the color background. Bright yellow letters on a white background look striking, but they’re hard to read.

Choose simple colors like red, dark green, blue, or black. These are the best options for your poster printing. These colours contrast well and easily on any colour background.

2. Images for attraction

A picture catches the human eye. So, adding a photo to your PVC banner makes it more effective than a plain one. A picture tells a thousand words.

Make sure that the images are not blurry and pixelated; otherwise, they will print poorly.

You can use stock images or search online for high-resolution photos. Another option is to hire a professional photographer to capture your products.

3. Left to Right Placement

Your customers read in a western style—top to bottom and left to right. So, arrange your design elements logically. Place the main title or image first to promote your message. It should be bigger than anything else and at eye level for passersby. This main message will draw people in and catch their attention in seconds.

4. Contact details

If you do not have contact details on the banner, then how will your customers find you? At a minimum, you should display an email address, a website address, or a phone number. You can also mention your location, whether a physical address or your stand number at the trade show. Provide your customers with the information they need. Keep the banner simple to avoid overcrowding. Remember that you can print leaflets with more information as needed.
