Microsoft Office Publisher works well for us. You can do web pages, flyers, brochures, all kinds of stuff. It has lots of templates you can use to get started also. I've used it for Galloway Association ads/flyers, and our own stuff.
I do all my own flyers and use Microsoft Publisher it is user friendly. You can see some of the flyers I have developed on our web site. One for an up coming bull sale on the sale page and I also have one on the freezer beef page for our freezer beef customers. Good luck it is alot of fun developing these flyers let me know if you want to see any of the others I have done I will email them to you.
Dont forget to price out your local printing shop before you do anything. Many times your cost per sheet to print is many much higher than a print shop could produce a proffessional quality product. Many people underestimate home printing costs.
