For those who are not as aware of the concept, a template for any advertisement is the basic layout before any of the text or images are put in. This will usually deal with having various markers to indicate where information is going to go, so when you do need to design your advertising all you have to do is fill in the blanks.

Now, for some forms of marketing you definitely want to always use a good template. Postcards and flyers both require you to make quite a few of them rather quickly, so a template will speed up this process by making sure that you can get them out quickly. Brochures can be long and complicated to design, so a template will make it easier to make future brochures.

Now we come to poster templates and whether or not you should make use of them. My intention here is not to come to one set conclusion and say that is right, because each company will have to decide this for themselves.

The argument against a template is that posters are not designed as often, nor are they quite as difficult to design. I would consider them a more blown up version of a flyer, and the most important part of a poster is likely going to be the images and the text, which will change each poster anyways. So are those poster templates going to save you much time or money in the long run?

If you are only making a single poster a year and leaving it up for awhile, or if you are making really unique posters that do not work well with templates you might want to avoid using them.

Now for the argument for templates, a poster template can save you time no matter what. If you make a few initial poster templates than you have that much time cut off the design stage for future poster designs. Sometimes even the smallest time saver can be quite useful in the long run no matter how many posters you are making.

Also, if you are not making very many posters you can use the same templates that many more times. The further you space out using a template the more use you can get out of it, because no one will notice that the posters have the same basic design.

Finally, because the images and the text are so important, people are once again less likely to notice that you have a template.

Does all of this mean you should try to always use a template? I am not going to say either way. I will say instead that you should definitely understand what templates are and what they can do. That way if you do need to use them they are there for you.
