Flyers or Posters
Description. Creative and eye-catching flyers and posters are an excellent way to inform a
community about upcoming events or public involvement opportunities. Typically, flyers are a
standard, letter-sized page. Posters, on the other hand, are usually larger in size and should be eas-
ily readable to attract public attention. Flyers and posters should be distributed throughout the
study area in public places and businesses or shops frequented by a large number of citizens to reach
the most people. Contact information should be included on the flyer or poster to encourage writ-
ten responses.
Lessons for Airport Managers.
· Many public places have "Community Bulletin Boards" specifically designated for announce-
ments. Ask permission before hanging posters. Also, if possible, leave stacks of flyers near
entrances and on countertops.
· Don't rely solely on flyers; they are disposable.
· Posters are visible to large numbers of people for long periods of time and can be used in tan-
dem with flyers to increase awareness.
