Top Postcard Design
What it Takes to Make Great Postcards
Here's a rule of thumb that a top postcard design would have followed: compose your postcard.
The thing is, if you look at it, a postcard doesn't have a whole lot of space. So take advantage of this by finding an amazing photograph or illustration that fits within the design field. Don't clutter it up with so many images, just pick a few (or one, if you can) that can explain your message with just a look.
Now if you think you need text, put a headline that grabs your audience's attention. Probably just one line that doesn't need too much exposition. If you must though, you can support it with a few brief lines of text either at the bottom or at the back.
Everything has to be perceived immediately because, admittedly, advertising with postcards (which will likely come in with the mail) will probably mean that your marketing materials might find its way to the bin.
Now don't despair, this is a challenge for all you postcard marketing adherents and designers. You can either make a really awesome design for your postcard so that the recipient might consider tacking it on his board or keeping it where he can see it, or you can use the time period between receiving the mail and walking to the bin to say everything you want.
The point is, even if the postcard gets thrown out, once the message is transmitted successfully, it's going to be in your recipient's head.
Message sent -and a message sent is the best measure of a top postcard design.
Who knows? Maybe your transmission will keep the postcard from seeing the trash.
