Aim: How do we create a travel brochure for our project?

The Task

In order to ensure that your new company takes off with a flying start, you and your partners need to create a sample product which you will be using to advertise its services. Your foursome will be designing and creating a unique travel brochure by using Internet web sites. Within this brochure you will be including general information about the selected destination, areas of historical and recreational interest, and a choice of travel packages. In addition, you must include pictures and images to appeal to the eyes of your consumers. Remember, first impressions are always the most lasting impressions, so you'll want to create an out of this world brochure example. Hopefully this advertising will yield smooth sailing ahead!!
