A well-designed brochure does something a website can't: it stays. It sits on a desk, gets passed to a spouse, ends up in the pile of things worth keeping. Physical sales material gives your business a tangible presence in the hands of a potential customer — and that presence carries weight. At Contemporary Communications, we design brochures, folders, sell sheets, product catalogs, and sales kits that reflect the quality of your business and make a case for choosing you.
The key distinction between sales material that works and material that gets thrown away is whether it was designed around the customer's decision process or around internal vanity. We focus on the former — identifying the questions and objections a prospect has at each stage, then building collateral that addresses them with clarity, credibility, and a clear next step.
What We Design
Brochures & Leave-Behinds
Trifolds, bifolds, saddle-stitched booklets — we select the format that fits your content and your distribution method. A brochure left at a trade show has different requirements than one handed over at the end of a sales consultation. We design to fit the use case, not just to fill a standard template.
Sell Sheets & One-Pagers
When you need to communicate the value of a single product, service, or offer quickly, a one-page sell sheet is often the most effective tool in the sales toolkit. We structure these for maximum clarity: headline, proof, specifics, and action. Everything else gets cut.
Presentation Folders & Proposal Kits
For businesses that present proposals — contractors, agencies, consultants, financial professionals — a professionally designed folder system elevates the entire sales experience. We design custom folders, insert sheets, and branded proposal formats that make the right impression at the moment decisions are being made.
Product Catalogs & Capabilities Guides
For businesses with extensive product lines or service offerings, a well-organized catalog or capabilities guide is a sales force multiplier. We handle editorial structure, photography direction, design, and print coordination from concept through delivery.
Print Coordination
We manage the printing side as well — working with quality print vendors, reviewing proofs, and overseeing production to ensure the final piece matches the design. Color accuracy, paper weight, finishing options — these details matter, and we handle them so you don't have to chase them down yourself.
