Recall from previously reading Chapter 5 in Business and Professional Writing: A Basic Guide, that a reader-friendly document is one that effectively blends text and visuals. You've already applied basic design principles to a slideshow presentation. Now, you will apply these same principles to a persuasive marketing campaign using effective visual communication.
Instructions
For the past year, you've been working to launch your start-up company. Now is the time for you to share your new business with prospective clients and customers using a persuasive marketing campaign.Â
Your start-up company can be anything you want it to be! Your company should offer a product, process, or service. For example, you might decide to create an app for a new game, an online athletic shoe store, or a language tutoring service for adults.
Your goal is a persuasive visual communication campaign using one "old school" medium (flyer, brochure, poster, newspaper advertisement, etc.) and one "new school" medium (social media post, social media cover/header, blog or website graphic, etc.). Use the same branding strategy to share one in two different ways.
Your persuasive marketing campaign should include the following:
Be sure to consider the design elements such as text (including font size and type), visuals (including images, charts, graphs, etc.), color, and white space or empty space.
Important Reminder:Â Don't forget to consider the audience and the medium. Your "old school" medium can contain more text because it is designed to be held and read by the audience. Your "new school" medium should contain less text because the audience will be quickly scrolling by it either on their computer, tablet, or mobile devices.

Canva
While you may use the medium you feel most comfortable with such as Microsoft Word® or Apple Pages®, Keynote® or PowerPoint®, it is recommended that students create a free Canva account for this assignment. Canva  (Links to an external site.)

is an online graphic design platform with pre-made templates for a variety of mediums. Please note that while premium features do exist, students should only select from the free options within Canva.
Â
No matter which medium you choose to using "old school" and "new school" visuals, maintain the integrity of all design elements by exporting your documents as PDF files.
Â
Submission Instructions
To submit, use a PDF file and name the file your surname, module number, and title of the assignment (e.g., surname_M7_PersuasiveVisualCommunication). You may submit two documents for this assignment - one for your "old school" design and one for your "new school" design.
