When it’s time to create a letterhead, a lot of thought and detail should go into it. Professional Letterhead<\/a> is often one of the first points of contact with potential customers, making it one of the most critical printing collaterals in the business. Not only is it a form of professional correspondence, but it is a central part of your sales and marketing communications strategy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Why is letterhead important? Below are just a few reasons why you and your business should invest in a premium letterhead.<\/p>\n

It makes you seem easier to work with.<\/h2>\n

Not only do your potential customers want to know that a team is behind you, but they want to know they have access to a personalized contact. Customers don\u2019t want things addressed by the company at large. This can be the difference between a customer who is loyal to the end and a customer who is always shopping for a better deal.<\/p>\n

Increases Credibility<\/h2>\n

Personalized letterhead and custom stationery make your business look professional. In using it, you\u2019re able to create a relationship with your potential client based on trustworthiness and reliability. Furthermore, it shows that you\u2019re an established business.<\/p>\n

\"Personalized<\/p>\n

Strengthens brand awareness<\/h2>\n

When a company has a high-quality business letterhead, one immediately assumes that it will provide a high-quality product or service. And if you have an ongoing company image\u2014including a logo, business card, and envelopes\u2014potential customers will notice the effort that you have put in. Furthermore, every company wants its customers to know that it offers the most affordable prices and the best service. Therefore, it needs to reflect this.<\/p>\n

We asked our design team to provide some letterhead design tips.<\/p>\n

Use the right software<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s essential to make sure you\u2019re using the right software. While Microsoft Word or Pages is acceptable for an ultra-simple layout, these will impose significant limitations when it comes to using graphics or more elaborate text layouts.<\/p>\n

Adobe InDesign<\/a> is probably the most suitable program for creating custom layouts, as it is tailored towards creating more flexible publishing layouts. Illustrator<\/a> is also a great alternative when creating a single-page layout.<\/p>\n

Consider alignment and positioning<\/h2>\n

In order to create a well thought out design, it\u2019s essential to consider its size. The standard size varies depending on the region. If you\u2019re sending a letter to the United States or Canada, you\u2019ll want to set your page to US Letter size, which is 8.5\u2019\u2019 x 11\u2019\u2019. You\u2019ll also want to think about the grid of your layout.<\/p>\n

While letterhead isn\u2019t as intricate as a magazine cover, it still needs a simple grid structure (where you break up the page into square or rectangle sections). It\u2019s helpful to look at other professional ones and observe the grids they employ.<\/p>\n

We also have a selection of free, certified letterhead templates<\/a> for you to explore, ensuring an accurate production of your print job.<\/p>\n

\"Indesign<\/p>\n

Adapt to your audience<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s important to take a moment to pause and consider who you\u2019re sending your letter to. You want your custom letterhead<\/a> to match the tone of your company and for that cohesion to resonate with your recipients. For example, minimalist design is a perfect fit for a company that\u2019s more traditional at its core.<\/p>\n
