I've been on a kick recently with templatizing everything. After dealing with bottlenecks in creating featured images for blog posts, I decided to templatize this process too. Inspired by our YouTube thumbnails, I'll create a Figma board with 6-8 background colors, textures, and reusable assets. Each featured image will include up to three words of text, one action icon (like an arrow or check mark), and a topical item (like a hot tub or pool). This approach will streamline the process and ensure consistency across our content. If you have any questions, email me at matt@moneylab.co.
