Design free pizza hangers with coupons online
Door hangers are a creative and eye-catching part of a pizzerias promotional strategy, and have their place alongside the promotional flyer and takeaway menu along with case tops and newspaper inserts. Door hangers are a good idea, as they’re a little less common than flyers or postcards, and they look great on your front door or gate. This ensures that the door hangers are noticed and often touched by the returning customer. The most successful door hangers will include discounts or coupons and/or other promotional items like free sodas or appetizers with orders of a certain size.
Find a template online
Door hangers can be easily designed online, even if you don’t have any training or consider yourself an artist. Simply search for templates online and follow the instructions. Free door hanger templates are often found on printing company websites. Choose and upload an image or two and a logo. Now think of an irresistible offer to make the door hanger worth bringing inside the house. Many door hanger printers offer tear-off coupons built into the template. If possible, restaurants should offer dollar discounts rather than percentage deals, as the actual dollar figure has been shown to be more effective and attention grabbing.
Ensure readability
It’s easy to get carried away with photos and color, but look at the overall design of the door hanger before you hit the ‘submit’ button. It should be easy to see the details of the offer, the address and especially the phone number of the restaurant. Make sure contact information is legible and a website URL is large enough to read. Including a couple of high-quality, well-placed photos of best-selling dishes is always great for stimulating the call to action: “I’m hungry. That looks delicious.” Avoid overly decorative font styles for text. Choose a large, easy-to-read font to advertise the offer. Choose a color scheme that reflects the colors of the restaurant’s décor or menu. The colors of the Italian flag are often used and make your door hanger easily visible as Italian food or pizza.
print and distribute
Finding a free door hanger template online will pretty much make the ordering process seamless. It’s simply a matter of sitting down for a short period of time, customizing the template with information about your restaurant, and then ordering all the parts you need. Most of the time it’s a good idea, based on wholesale rates, to buy enough for several rounds of distribution. This keeps your restaurant name visible for a period of time and qualifies for reduced printing and shipping costs associated with bulk orders. Take into account variables such as paper/cardstock weight and gloss or UV varnish. Door hangers vary widely in size and all have a knockout hole in the top or some sort of handle to attach to a doorknob. Some door hangers are menus that are inserted into plastic door hanger bags. In fact, a good printer can help you target your market area with strategic locations based on zip codes. If you don’t have a distribution company for your door hangers, many printing companies can also recommend these services in your area.
The key is to saturate the right market area with the best advertising possible, and that’s something a professional print shop is ready to help you achieve.
