Fall uses the supplied plum #432371 → coral #EF745C palette. Summer and winter are unchanged. Starter copy is editable.
Your words stay yours. Changing a brand or season won’t replace your message.
Digital artwork, with exact pixel dimensions.
These six formats export as PNG. Print, documents, websites, and video need their own production workflows—we’ll add those next.
Who are we talking to?
The NCS operator profile is built in. Choose a focus, or keep the defaults.

What the studio knows about operators
Your brief describes entrepreneurial, capital-intensive businesses, often managing 1–10 locations, sometimes up to 20. The age 35–65 and male-dominated ownership notes are client observations—not assumptions about every reader.
Core priorities: uptime, chemistry performance, equipment reliability, throughput, membership growth, average ticket, upgrade value, and fewer service calls.
Additional lenses: cost per wash, member retention, staffing, training, site consistency, parts availability, and installation disruption. We use only what fits the message.
Every tone uses this profile. Clever copy can open with a joke and connect the supporting copy or CTA to an operator benefit. No invented numbers, guarantees, or demographic stereotypes.

Specific mess. Unexpected POV. Short payoff.
Your VacuTech example is the reference for this mode. Tone guides the next AI rewrite; it does not change your brand colors or logo.
Reference artwork—not a reusable blank photo.Text color
Colors apply to this format and layout. Check contrast over the photo before approval. The eyebrow is hidden in the Peak Season layout.
Letter & line spacingHeadline and supporting copy+
Text spacing
Negative letter spacing pulls letters closer. Line spacing is a multiple of the type size and is visible when text wraps. Pixel values refer to the exported artwork.
Tone guides your next AI rewrite. Selecting a tone alone won’t rewrite the message.

Campaign image treatment
Uses the Peak Season layout and selected season’s colors. Full bleed fills the canvas. Text, logos and CTA stay editable; photo zoom and focus work in both modes.
Move logos & CTA
Drag an element on the preview, or set its position below. Each moves independently.
Positions use the full-size artwork. Arrow keys nudge 1 px; Shift + arrow moves 10 px. Check contrast and clear space after moving.

Check the final artwork for clipped text and platform overlays. Layout guides are not an approval.

From your campaign checklist. These labels describe studio capabilities, not completed deliverables or approvals. PNG drafts still need final dimensions and review; print, web, document, and video production require their own templates.
Original source files are preserved. Website provenance is not legal clearance or campaign approval. Check resolution and usage rights before production.
