The political world can be fast paced, so effective communication is key. When election time comes around it’s important for political teams to have easy access to signage, brochures, door to door handouts and other materials while they are working tirelessly to win over voters. Print materials play a crucial role in conveying a candidate’s message, connecting with voters, and leaving a good impression. In this article we’ll explore the top five print needs for political teams during election time and how a local printing shop can be an invaluable partner in their campaign.

  1. Yard Signs

Yard signs are a well known staple of political campaigns. Finding willing voters and local businessess that are willing to post your signage in their lot means that every person that drives by their location will recognize your name. It’s important to make sure that you have eye-catching and durable yard signs that can withstand various weather conditions. Our team at Pinnacle Press can help you with sign design all the way through production, and make sure that you have a reliable supply of signage for your campaign trail.

  1. Campaign Flyers

Campaign flyers are great for when you attend networking events or hitting the streets. They can help you convey a candidate’s platform, stance on important issues, and contact information to potential voters. These materials need to be packed with information, but also easily readable and eye catching. 

  1. Brochures and Booklets

Too much information for a flyer? It might be time for you to look into a booklet or brochure. These print materials allow candidates to explain their stances more deeply in a segmented fashion. They can dive into their policies, achievements, and future plans – all in the same document. Our team here at Pinnacle Press can produce high-quality brochures and booklets with eye-catching graphics and concise, persuasive content.

  1. Postcards and Mailers

Direct mail remains a powerful tool in political campaigns. Postcards and mailers can be used to reach out to specific demographics or neighborhoods with tailored messages. Local printing shops can assist with designing and printing these materials, ensuring they meet postal regulations for cost-effective mailing, and even help you set up an Every Door Direct Mail (or EDDM) campaign so you can send your materials to specific neighborhoods in your voting district.

  1. Fundraising Materials

Campaigns rely on fundraising to finance their operations. Printed materials such as donation envelopes, pledge cards, raffle tickets and fundraising brochures are essential for fundraising efforts. Local printing shops can ensure that these materials are professional and compelling, encouraging supporters to contribute to the cause.

Print materials are an integral part of any political campaign’s outreach strategy. To meet the print needs of political teams during election time, partnering with a local printing shop is a smart choice to increase quality of service and decrease production time. Our team at Pinnacle Press offers expertise, personalized service, and the ability to produce high-quality materials that can help political candidates make a lasting impression on voters and ultimately secure victory on Election Day.
