When to use Canva Workflow
Small teams that need social output fast without bottlenecking every asset through a designer. Use it when the platform behaviour matches the buying journey, not because someone in a meeting said the brand needs to be everywhere.
The Grassroots play
Build around template systems, brand kits, production speed and approval workflows. Start with one sharp offer, multiple creative angles and a measurement setup that can separate noise from money.

What to avoid
Letting every intern freestyle the brand. Canva is a system, not a colouring book.
How Grassroots would start
- Audit the offer, landing page and tracking before media spend.
- Write five hooks based on audience pain, proof, objection, urgency and contrast.
- Launch lean creative tests, kill weak angles quickly and move budget into winners.
- Report on leads, revenue and sales quality, not applause metrics.
