Company Flyer and Grand Opening Invitation

Flyer - Due November 16th

You will be designing a flyer for the company that you created last class. You may either create a flyer about a company sponsored event or create a flyer advertising your company. If you choose to do a flyer for a company sponsored event, you must include the Five W's. (Who, What, Where, When, and Why)**

For this activity you may use a template, but it must be changed to match the mood of your company.

I have provided examples of both types of flyers for you to gain ideas.

The design of the flyer is completely up to you, however, I MUST see the following elements on your flyer for you to receive full credit.

1. Company designed logo
2. Company slogan
3. Type of service/product your company provides
4. Company phone number
5. Company web address
6. Page border
7. 1 or 2 graphics/images (this does not include your logo)
8. Name of owner/president
9. Use of at least 2 different colors
10. Spelling/Grammar accuracy

Each part is worth 3 points for a total of 30 points.


Be sure to save it as “Company Flyer” in your Desktop Publishing folder.
