Simplified Marketing Materials Make For Cost-Effective Reproduction and Customization

1. Keep it simple
2. Save all your work
3. Create templates where only the details need to be changed

Therefore, the real customization work lies in recasting the benefits and advantages in a way that caters to the interest of the specific group you're communicating with.
