Social Media Ad Graphic Design Inspiration
When seeking inspiration for social media ad graphics, there are a few things to keep in mind. Your graphics should be a seamless reflection of your branding and website. It would be confusing to a social media user to see a colorful, playful graphic design only to be led to a landing page that is monochrome with clean lines. This may leave them wondering if they ended up in the right place.
Additionally, you don’t want to include too much text on your graphic. List a few benefits or key points about your product or service and leave them wanting more. Users will be enticed to click your ad, leading them to your landing page that should be jam-packed with information. A good rule of thumb is to have less than 20% text covering your ad graphic.

Business cards aren’t only printed on cardstock these days. Modern-day business cards can be printed or even engraved on plastic, metal, and other unique materials. Your design needs to stand out so your card doesn’t get lost among dozens of others in a person’s wallet.
