Online brochures, electronic brochures, ‘flippy page’ brochures or virtual brochures all have different names but fundamentally offer the same thing, the ability to view your brochure online electronically and interactively.
There are several methods to create online brochures, all using certain software solutions which contain different functions and benefits but most include the ability to flick through pages, search content or link through to online content.
What are the benefits of online brochures?
There are several benefits in providing your clients with the ability to view an online version of your brochure:
- Instant – view your products or information instantly without the need of waiting for a printed version in the post
- Social media – people can view and share your online brochure via sites like Facebook and Twitter instantly
- Printing – you can download and print specific pages if required
- Add to a website – embed the online brochure code onto your website page, adding that little extra wow factor
