Poster & flyer design in Chennai

A poster is read at walking speed from four metres away, or thumbed past in half a second. Either way it gets one message. Deciding which one is the actual work.

Sizes and what they cost

Every design comes with a print file and matching social exports, because the same message always ends up in both places.

The four-metre test

Before anything is approved I print it, tape it to a wall and walk back four metres. From there a poster has to deliver three things in this order, and nothing else matters until they land.

  1. FIRST · 1 SECOND

    What is this about?

    One line, big. If someone has to read a second line to understand the first, the poster has already lost them.

  2. SECOND · 3 SECONDS

    Is it for me, and when?

    Offer, date, venue. The three details people actually stop for, set large enough to read from where they are standing.

  3. THIRD · UP CLOSE

    How do I act on it?

    Phone number, QR, address. This is the only part that belongs at small size, because by now they have walked over.

Most flyers fail because everything is set at the same weight, so the eye finds no entry point and moves on.

Poster & flyer FAQs

How much does poster design cost in Chennai?

₹1,500 for a flyer, ₹2,000 for a poster, ₹2,500 for a standee or menu card and ₹4,000 for a hoarding. A full campaign set with print and social versions of one message starts at ₹3,500.

Do I get a version for Instagram too?

Yes, that is included rather than charged separately. Every print design is also delivered as a square and a vertical export, reframed properly instead of the print file squeezed into a different shape.

How fast can you turn one around?

Two working days normally. If the offer, dates and photos arrive in the morning and the schedule allows, same-day happens fairly often — worth asking.

Can you write the offer copy?

I will tighten and reorder what you send, which usually means cutting it by half. Writing the offer itself is your call — you know your margins.

Will it be ready for the printer?

CMYK, 3mm bleed, crop marks and outlined fonts, sized to the exact format your printer quoted. If they flag anything I fix it at no charge.

I need Tamil on it as well.

Standard for retail and event work here. Tamil and English are set at matched weight and planned into the layout from the start, not added afterwards.
