Layout Guidance

Visual Hierarchy

  1. Headline — Largest text, top of page, immediately communicates value
  2. Section headers — Bold, clear, act as scannable anchors
  3. Body text — Short sentences, bullet points preferred over paragraphs
  4. Proof elements — Metrics and quotes should visually stand out (larger font, color, or callout box)
  5. CTA — Prominent placement, bottom of page or bottom-right

Whitespace

  • Margins: at least 0.75" on all sides
  • Space between sections: enough to visually separate (don't cram)
  • If it feels crowded, cut content. Never shrink font below 9pt.

Font Sizing

ElementSuggested Size
Headline18-24pt
Section headers12-14pt bold
Body text10-11pt
Fine print / footer8-9pt

Color

  • Use brand colors for headers and accents
  • Keep body text dark (black or near-black) on white
  • Limit accent colors to 1-2 for visual consistency
  • Use color to draw attention to metrics and CTAs

File Format

  • PDF for email attachments and leave-behinds
  • Google Slides / PowerPoint for editable versions reps can customize
  • Always include both — reps will customize, prospects want clean PDFs
