What is an eBrochure? How does it work?

eBrochure


Simply put, eBrochures are viewable on any computer screen -- and can be quickly sent via email, downloaded from your website or handed out on CD.

They allow you to successfully promote your business at a fraction of the cost of traditional marketing -- and because they incur no overheads, every new sale brings you guaranteed profits.

But what makes eBrochures totally unique and unlike PDF's, Word or Powerpoint files -- is that they actually look and feel just like regular print brochures, but with one drastic difference...

eBrochures Completely Eliminate
Printing, Posting and Wastage!

Additionally, they are:

Easy To Use

eBrochures feature a clever point-and-click interface that's simple-to-use... even for the most basic computer users.

Quick To Download

The small file sizes of eBrochures make them quick to download, which is important for users on slow Internet connections.

Easy To Update

Changes can be made instantly, ensuring you'll never get stuck with out-dated information ever again.

Can Be Downloaded From Your Website

Customers from anywhere in the world have 24/7 access to your products and services.

Can Be Sent FREE Via e-mail

eBrochures can be sent via e-mail in a heartbeat, totally eliminating the costs and delays of postage (aka "snail mail").

Can Be Handed Out on CD

eBrochures can be handed out on CD and are perfect for trade shows, seminars and other public events.


Can Be Viewed Off-Line

Users can view and interact with your eBrochure offline, which means they can instantly access your information without having to reconnect to the Internet and wait for slow web pages to download.

Here's how an eBrochure works:

Text, images, and Internet links, are all shrunk and packaged into a tiny file, perfect for distribution over the Internet.

Unlike other file formats, special compression technology used in eBrochures ensures your photos and images are crystal clear , without the loss of image quality common in other formats.

In our experience, we've seen 10MB PDF's reduced to under 1MB when converted into an eBrochure.

Files that would normally take 30 minutes to download, can be viewed in around 90 seconds on a regular Internet connection -- or between 2-20 seconds on a high speed connection.

This saves your customers a massive amount of time and gives you a much better chance of making the sale.
Are eBrochures easy-to-use?

The biggest advantage eBrochures have over other marketing formats, is that they have been designed with basic computer users in mind.

If you've ever fumbled around a badly designed website or piece of software, you realize how annoying (and frustrating) it can be.

It's for this very reason that eBrochures use a simple point-and-click format designed especially for Internet beginners. Clicking on the right side of the brochure turns the page forward and clicking on the left side turns it backwards.

This means potential customers -- regardless of their computer skills -- can easily view your eBrochure or Catalog without having to learn new software.

Can customers print from my eBrochure?

Yes!
Any recipient of your eBrochure can print a hard copy from any normal PC and printer.

Can I edit the eBrochure myself?

Yes.

The great thing about using eBrochures and Catalogs is that changes can be made instantly at any time!

Just think -- with a print brochure, even a little mistake (like a wrong digit in a phone number) can cause terrible damage to your business.

With an eBrochure you'll never risk making expensive mistakes again.

Changes can be made instantly, so you can guarantee your finished product is always accurate and totally professional.
