Give your one-pager one clear job.

A useful one-pager helps someone take the next step. Trying to fit everything onto it usually makes that step harder to find.

  1. Choose the reader and decision

    Decide who will use the page and what decision it supports. An event follow-up and a sales leave-behind may need different information about the same product.

  2. Make the structure visible

    Use a clear headline, a few short sections and an obvious next action. Someone scanning only the headings should still understand the argument.

  3. Protect the breathing room

    If the content only fits after shrinking the type, edit it. Move supporting detail to a linked resource and review the page at its actual reading size.

  4. Give the action a purpose

    Tell readers what the next step gives them: a demonstration, specification or useful conversation. Make the link easy to find and check the exported file.

  5. Test it in someone’s hands

    Give the page to a colleague without an explanation. Ask who it is for, what it offers and what comes next. Revise anything they struggle to find.

Start with the existing document

Send Matizmo the current page, its audience and the action you want it to support. We can help clarify the hierarchy and design a version your team can use with confidence.
