Why you should jump on board the infographic
train
Our online world is more and more visual everyday. The rise
of Instagram, the Pinterest explosion and the number of
images in your Facebook feed are proof that we want our
content delivered in a pretty package.
Below, I’m sharing three ways that you can use infographics
to cut through the clutter and seduce your prospects (or the
media.)
1. Make a resource for your clients.
Give your clients and prospects a handy, all-in-one reference and you’ll have a fan for life. Best of all, it’ll get shared
among your target market without you having to lift a pinky.
Here’s one by LunaMetrics that has been shared all over the interwebs. (Keep on scrolling…it’s long.)

2. Jazz up a presentation.
Give a plain-jane Powerpoint or Keynote presentation a little sizzle with an infographic.
If you’ve got numbers to share, an infographic can deliver the impact with a punch. Here’s one that consulting giant
Deloitte used to show how it’s on the cutting edge of user engagement:
A heck of a lot more exciting than dry stats in bullet points, right?
3. Put it in your press release.
The media loves visuals, especially visuals that tell a story. If you can create an infographic that makes an impact or
makes it easier to understand the story of your company, your product or your service, you’ve just boosted your
chances of being picked up. By a lot.
Got a “tips” article to pitch? Responding to a query on HARO, Reporter Connection or other journalist/source matching
service? Make an infographic of your best advice and you’ve got a piece of marketing collateral that you can keep using,
over and over again.

Yep, there’s an easy button.
I can hear it now: “Those are great, but I’m not a graphic designer. I don’t own Adobe InDesign. I can’t make those.”
This is where I shake my head and marvel at the sheer awesomeness of the internet. You could hire a specialized
design firm to create a fantastic infographic for you. BUT, you can also go DIY with a number of online services that
allow you to create your own infographics – no design experience needed! With customizable templates, drag and drop
shapes and text fields, you’ll build a beautiful infographic in no time.
Here are four tools to create your own infographics:
