Flyer Advice

• Always include contact information (email, social media, website, etc.) and provide a way to connect with you even if an interested student cannot attend the advertised event.
• Make the contact info big enough to read easily rather than tiny print at the bottom.
• Avoid dark colored paper with black ink, its hard to read.
• Email a PDF of your flyer to John Kaufeld in University Marketing and Communications, he will post a copy to the IPFW Facebook Page!
