Decide what information must be included on your flyer. Clearly, you will want to include the club's location, hours of operations and the time of any special events. You should also include a phone number, and website address, as well as any other information that makes you particular club unique. Sketch out your designs in a sketchbook, remembering to add any logos or other identifying symbols that link your flyer with your clubs existing reputation in the public mind.

Use a quality graphics program like Photoshop to design your club's flyer. While there are several programs of varying abilities in which you can create your flyer, few compare in terms of tools and options to Photoshop. Utilizing this program you can achieve a highly professional looking flyer without having to hire a professional graphics artist to do it for you which can be a costly expense, depending on your budget. Begin by opening a new document in the program. Next, set the size requirements for your flyer and its resolution, generally you want the least to be at least 200 pixels for the best printing results. At this point you will also need to choose a background such as transparent or white.

Create your flyer's design using layers. By using layers you can make changes to each new element you add to your overall work without effecting elements of other layers. For example, if you have brought in a photo of your club and want to keep it unchanged while you use a filter effect on text you have placed above it, you can make this change without effecting your photo or anything you have on additional layers. Consider adding various filter effects to your design, such as highlights or flare effects, as well as utilizing other tools and options, such as reducing the opacity of objects in the background of your design to make what is in the foreground more prominent. You could bring in an empty glass and fill it with any color you like. A wide variety of options are available to help transform a plain design in to something modern and engaging. Once you're satisfied with your final design, save it as a high resolution JPEG to a CD.

Choose a method for printing your flyer. If you print your flyers from your home or office printer, you will need to purchase flyer printing paper and enough ink to do the job you require. Depending on your specific needs you might find it less time consuming--as well as a better option for your budget--to have your flyers printed in bulk. If you go this route remember to shop about for pricing. The office supply store Staples offers a design service as well as a printing service that can accommodate your printing job needs.
