Advertisement Design

When speed is of the essence

We specialise in producing advertisments for print publications very quickly — same day when required. Working via email and telephone means we can take your specifications, photographs and text, provide mockups and proofs, and send the finished artwork directly to your publisher in a matter of hours.

First steps

If you need an advert producing quickly, please get in touch by calling Freephone 0800 077 6467 (we would prefer you to phone rather than email as the designer allocated to your project can take instructions and ask questions much more quickly than via email).

We will need the following information to get started, all of which should be available from your publisher:

  • finished size of the advertisement, including any bleeds;
  • number of colours (if your ad is to be printed in full colour we do not need any more details);
  • telephone number, email address and name of your contact at your publisher.

Sending mockups and proofs

We will need an email address for you that can accept attachments of up to 1 MB, which you can access readily.

Sending final artwork to your publisher

When we're ready to send the final artwork to your publisher, we will need the following additional details:

  • which file format and resolution they use;
  • what technical information (if any) needs to accompany the file;
  • whether they require artwork in CMYK, RGB, or greyscale colour mode, or as separations.

If time is short and this information cannot easily be obtained, we will supply a 300dpi TIFF in CMYK colour mode, which is the a file format acceptable to the majority of publishers.

Costs

Our standard hourly rate of £75 + VAT. We will always provide a quote before starting work once we have all the details from your initial telephone call/email to us.
