âś… Next Steps for Double-Sided Leaflet

1. Clarify the ONE Message

Decide on the one core transformation or benefit your reader most wants. Your leaflet only has room for one message, one promise, and one action—so clarity is power.

  • What is the ONE result they’ll get?
  • What makes your approach feel different, better, or easier?

2. Define Your Starving Crowd

Get specific:

  • Who is in most urgent need of this solution?
  • What pain are they feeling right now that your offer resolves?

Use language, visuals, or references that make them say: “This is for me.”

3. Select the Format

Choose the right dimensions for your campaign:

  • 4x6" postcard style (simple offers, fast conversion)
  • 5x7" or 8.5x5.5" (room for storytelling or testimonials)
  • Confirm paper stock, print specs, and whether it’s mailer, handout, or insert

4. Gather Core Copy Ingredients

Prep your message assets:

  • Headline and subhead
  • 2–3 short, punchy benefit bullets
  • One strong testimonial, stat, or case result
  • Your offer + any bonus, guarantee, or urgency trigger
  • Clear call-to-action (URL, QR code, phone, or physical response)

5. Design for the Emotional Arc

Use the front to spark desire or identity resonance.
Use the back to provide logical reassurance and action clarity.
You are telling a mini-story:
[You] → [Problem] → [Promise] → [Proof] → [Next Step]

6. Add a Tracking Mechanism

Make it measurable:

  • Use a unique QR code, landing page, or tracking phone number
  • Include a deadline or limit to create urgency
  • Designate one call-to-action only

7. Test & Refine

Test with a few variations:

  • Test headlines (pain vs. aspiration)
  • Try one “proof-heavy” and one “emotion-heavy” version
  • Track response rates by audience or distribution channel
