Instructions for Creating the Sparkle Clean Social Media Post in Canva
1. Log into Canva:
● Company Name: Add a text box for “Sparkle Clean.” Use a bold, clean
font for the company name to make it stand out.
● Slogan: Add a smaller text box underneath with the slogan “Make Your
Space Sparkle!”
● Services: List the services offered, like “Deep Cleaning, Carpet
Cleaning, Sanitizing.”
● Contact Information: Add a section for contact details (phone number,
email, and social media handle).
● Use a consistent font style across the post, but vary font sizes to create
a visual hierarchy.
● Go to the “Elements” tab and search for icons related to cleaning (e.g.,
mops, bubbles, or sparkles).
● Add these icons near the text to visually emphasize the cleaning theme.
● If available, use a relevant image (such as a before-and-after photo) to
add impact.
7. Apply Design Principles:
● Ensure that text and images are aligned properly and spaced out
evenly.
● Create visual balance by distributing elements on the canvas
thoughtfully.
● Keep the design simple and uncluttered to ensure the message is clear.
● Add a final text box with a clear CTA, such as “Book Now!” or “Contact
Us Today.”
● Use a bright color for the CTA text or button to make it stand out.
● Look over the design to check for readability, alignment, and overall
appeal.
● Make any final adjustments to color, text size, or placement if needed.
3. Secondary Colors
These colors can be used sparingly to highlight services or emphasize
important information.
Accent Color
Use this color for call-to-action buttons or to draw attention to specific details.
Typography Recommendations
1. Heading Font: Bold Sans Serif (e.g., Montserrat, Open Sans) for clear,
professional headers.
2. Body Font: Light Sans Serif (e.g., Lato, Raleway) for readability in
smaller text sections.
