Using Canva

Please note: this event is run by the Small Business Development Corporation for small business owners in Western Australia only.

First impressions count. If you want to put a professional face forward for your business, you need the right look and feel for your marketing materials. If your budget doesn’t extend to using a graphic designer, the good news is that you can do it yourself using Canva.

This easy-to-use design program makes it easy to create branded graphics for your business including social media posts, brochures and a range of other branded materials.

For this workshop you will need to register for a free Canva account if you don't have an existing one. 

This topic covers:

• The basics of using Canva.
• How to set up brand-consistent designs and templates.
• How to create professional looking designs and videos.
• How to choose the right template and content for each design.
• How to post directly from Canva to your Facebook business page.

This workshop is for people who are in business and want to learn a simple way to create graphic design elements to build their brand.

The facilitator of this topic, Business One Stop Shop (BOSS) is dedicated to helping small business owners thrive through expert advice, hands-on workshops and building a community of like-minded people.
