Instructions & Helpful Info:

Promotional Materials Info: This download is made available to Member Societies and individual members of the North American Gladiolus Council for copying ready to assemble Pocket Gladiolus Promotional Brochures. These brochures can be inserted with corms at sales or used for one on one contact with interested beginning growers at society events or shows. Much thought and consideration of the habits of the general public have gone into the design of this brochure by Cliff and Doris Hartline. First it is small and will fit into your shirt pocket or purse so you can carry with you at corm sales, shows or other garden events.. Second by printing on a bright paper it is an attention getter and will not readily be lost in a pile of paper. Thirdly most brochures placed on display tables are picked up by persons who would have no interest in growing gladiolus and are quickly deposited in the nearest waste receptacle or worse.

Printing and Assembly Instructions

The set is composed of four pages, which when copied, will make two completed brochures. Step #1, print the first sheet which is the front and back cover of two brochures, the second sheet should be printed on the back of the first sheet with attention given to printing the top opposite the top of side one. When this double sided sheet is completed you have pages 1,2,7,8 on the top and bottom half of the sheet. The 3rd and 4th sheet should be copied the same way thus forming two copies of pages 3,4,5,6. Step #2, place side 2 and 3 facing each other and cut the sheets two across the page. Step #3, by folding one of the sets vertically you have a complete brochure ready to staple at the center. Step #4, using a long reach stapler, staple in two places so the staple points are on the inside of the fold. If you have a printer capable of two sided printing follow the instructions for your printer.

It is recommended that if you use an Ink Jet printer you follow the above instructions to complete a trial set of brochures to use as an example to show your copy center. When you have this completed this step to your satisfaction copy the 4 sides on separate sheets to make master copies and have them copied at a copy center which uses a laser printer. Laser prints will not run when moisten while inkjet copies will. We suggest that you purchase the prints done on florescent green 24 lb. stock. Many copy centers will cut the sheets free or for a nominal fee and some will allow you to use their stapler free of charge. Copying charges vary with the amount of copies and special services requested but expect them to cost 15 to 20 cents per brochure.

Self Serve Brochure Holder

This holder, designed by John Macaig of the Connecticut Gladiolus Society can be copied and assembled at home. It is included for those who feel they have a good place for contact with the gardening public, where personal distribution is not possible such as at a garden center corms display. You can modify the printing to include your local society information. Please remember to ask permission to install and to periodically check to see if you need to add the brochures.
