You still have access your original legacy brochure templates in the Legacy Files tab of your Templates section. With the updated templates, you can create a client brochure that allows them to select services and answer questions.

If you want to create a brochure smart file from scratch, you'll want to include a service block. Learn more about building smart files. You can also refer to HoneyBook's template gallery to get inspiration or a starting point for your own brochures.
Legacy brochure files vs. smart files
Just as you could with legacy brochure files, you can create brochures with smart files that showcase your services and allow clients to select the items, packages, or services they'd like to purchase from you.
When creating a brochure, smart files will allow you all the same options as legacy files, including the ability to:
Add services
Add images and text
Add questions
Customize how clients can select services (make selection required, allow multiple selections, allow quantity adjustments, make services view-only, etc.)
Add multiple service selection sections (for example, a section to select a package, and a separate section to select add-ons)
Automatically draft a follow-up invoice/proposal based on the client's selections
What's new with smart files?
You can create a smart file that combines multiple elements of your process, such as service selection, invoice, and contract. Plus, you have the option to customize the file's appearance with branding options and add more content. Alternatively, you can also send a simplified smart file that includes only a few actions, similar to your traditional brochure files.
