A bulletin corkboard is perfect for anyone who needs to communicate news and ideas to others. Post advertisements, menus, grades or anything else you want your friends, family or employees to see. The only problem with bulletin boards is that they tend to quickly get disorganized. Here are a couple of things that you can do to keep your bulletin board in perfect order.
Color code with construction paperHead to your local arts and crafts store and purchase a pack of multi-colored construction paper. Simply staple different colored sheets to different regions of the board to color-code everything. Make a red region for urgent news, a green region for worker tips, et cetera. This is sure to make your job keeping things organized easier, and facilitate your readers' understanding of exactly what each announcement means. Giftwrap also works. Make your board festive by covering different areas with different patterns of giftwrap.
Always have the basic suppliesMore is needed to successfully operate a bulletin corkboard than just the corkboard itself. Purchase a staple remover, markers and thumb tacks. Stapling is the easiest way to put up bulletins, but those staples can prove a real challenge to remove. Rather than chipping your fingernails, invest a dollar or two into buying a staple remover. Purchase markers for easy editing of the bulletins and make sure to get a whole slew of thumb tacks so that others are able to post notices on the board easily.
Forego the standard staple remover for a magnetic one. They are inexpensive and extremely easy to use.
Bulletin corkboards are a smart way to disseminate information. Reorganize and update your bulletin corkboard at least once a month to keep all the news fresh and keep your readers in the know.
