Before You Get Started 

  • Figure out what kind of publication you want (a flyer, annual report, etc.) and why. 
  • Determine your audience. What tone, medium, look and feel are most appropriate? 
  • Collect and study similar documents. Determine what appeals to you and works well. 
  • Gather available photos and graphics. 
  • Determine the quantity needed, how it will be distributed, and when it is needed. 
  • Determine your budget and source of funding.
