When it comes to getting noticed, traditional marketing methods can feel a bit… well, stale. That’s why I decided to shake things up at my studio with a cheeky and creative twist—introducing my very own Naughty Newspaper!
This fun, eye-catching idea not only showcases my services but also turns heads and gets people talking. Here’s how you can create your own irresistible marketing newspaper for your business.

Step 1: Start With A Template
Forget hiring a designer or spending a fortune on design software. I found a treasure trove of affordable newspaper templates on Etsy, with prices starting at just $2.
These templates are super easy to use, and most come with step-by-step instructions to edit in Canva, which is a user-friendly design tool. Plus, you can choose between regular newspaper size (which I love for its authentic feel) or a smaller, more compact version.

Step 2: Edit Your Newspaper Like A Pro
Once you’ve chosen your template, it’s time to have some fun! Personalize the newspaper with your business’s story, services, promotions, and even playful photos.
Canva makes it easy to drag and drop elements, add your branding, and get creative. The best part? It’s free to design yourself and simple to use, so you can design it all yourself without any design experience.

Step 3: Print Your Masterpiece
Your design is ready—now what? To bring it to life, I recommend MakeMyNewspaper.com, a fantastic resource for printing high-quality newspapers in smaller quantities.
They’re based in the U.S., which means quick delivery, and their prices are perfect for small businesses looking to make a big impression.

Step 4: Custom Vintage Newspaper Stand
If you’re feeling extra playful (like I did), take your newspaper marketing to the next level by displaying it in a vintage newspaper stand outside your business.
These stands are a fabulous way to attract attention from passersby, and they’re customizable too!
I found Impact Racks, a company that repurposes old newspaper stands and offers customization options like color, logo, and text. It’s the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern marketing.
Step 5: Watch The Magic Happen
Now that your Naughty Newspaper is printed and displayed, it’s time to watch the buzz build. People passing by can grab a copy, read about your services, and maybe even become your next client.
Even if they’re not the right fit, they might share it with someone who is. Plus, you can create updated editions monthly or bi-monthly, building an ongoing story that keeps people coming back for more.
This clever idea turns an ordinary piece of paper into a powerful, cheeky marketing tool—and it’s perfect for any business looking to stand out. Whether you’re a studio, salon, boutique, or café, a custom newspaper can tell your story, promote your services, and leave a lasting impression.
