How important are business brochures and flyers?

Have you ever met a business person and once you spent an hour chatting with them, you asked for their company's brochure or flyer and they wrote their contact info on a napkin instead?

Having a nice brochure or a flyer to give out to your potential customer is a great idea. Many believe that professionally designed brochures and flyers are expensive, when in reality, it's not that expensive and is a great way to promote your business. There are various ways to creating a brochure or a flyer. One method would be to use Microsoft Word or Microsoft Publisher. You have a few templates to choose from. Or you can hire a professional to do it for you and save yourself time and a headache. There are endless choices and opportunities. You never know, you might even barter with someone and get your brochures and flyers done for low cost or no cost at all :)
