1. Design the First Set of Letterhead Templates

• Objective: Create a series of corporate letterhead templates for both physical and digital formats that will be used for official communication.

  • Research: Review SayPro’s existing letterhead design (if any), current branding, and gather inspiration from industry standards to ensure modern, professional appeal.
  • Template Variations:
    • Physical Letterhead Design: Focus on paper quality, layout (header, footer), logo placement, and the overall feel of the physical letterhead.
    • Digital Letterhead Design: Consider optimized designs for emails, ensuring they are easy to adapt for digital correspondence (email signatures, PDFs, etc.).
  • Design Style:
    • Keep the design aligned with SayPro’s corporate identity—use corporate colors, fonts, and logos from the official brand guide.
    • Create variations based on potential uses (general corporate communication, invoicing, etc.).
  • Final Design Files: Produce multiple file types (AI, PSD, PDF, Word, etc.) to ensure usability across different platforms and formats.
  • Feedback Loop: Share the designs with key stakeholders for feedback and make revisions as needed.
  • Approval: Get the finalized letterhead templates approved by the SayPro Marketing Royalty SCMR and Brand Material Office before proceeding.

    • Letterhead Layouts: Define the layout structure for both physical and digital letterhead formats, incorporating logo size, placement, and spacing.
  • Ensure Consistency: All designs should reflect the consistency in the application of these elements to guarantee professional brand presentation across different platforms and materials.
  • Collaboration with Marketing Team: Regularly collaborate with SayPro’s Brand Material Office and SayPro Marketing Royalty SCMR for any clarifications or updates regarding brand rules.
