Wouldn’t it be great if you could use your promotional PDFs to prompt people into action? To take advantage of the attention-grabbing power of pop-ups without annoying your prospects?
But, as with most documents, people might have good intentions of getting back to it or to act on it, but often never do. So, what if you had a little helper to gently “prompt”them?
Here’s how you can make your promotional PDFs do so much more for you:
When your customer closes your PDF file, up pops a message box.
- It could be a sales message. You could ask them to visit your store, announce a new product
- use it to announce a special offer
- it could direct them to a website of your choice
- you could alert them to a forthcoming event, service or new product launch
- it could contain an opt-in form inviting them to join your mailing list
- it could send an email from them to your inbox
- it could be anything you like!
Or, you could have any of those occur when the PDF is opened. Or both, a message on opening and an opt-in prompt on closing.

Example-1 demonstrates how to use a message to alert the reader to a product event on opening the PDF. Then, on closing, you urge them to act by requesting them to email you for info.
Example-2 illustrates a message box that pops up on Open and prompts the reader to visit a website. On Close, it invites them to register for more information.
