This is perfect for:

* Social posts
* Flyers
* Just Listed/Just Sold graphics
* Agent branding pieces
* Custom creative that goes beyond standard templates

Once connected, Canva can automatically pull in your **properties and agent info**, saving you time and eliminating manual copy/paste.

#### Tips & Best Practices

* Use Canva for highly custom or brand-specific designs
* Keep text areas dynamic so property/agent info can auto-populate
* Name assets clearly for easy discovery
* Organize exports into the correct categories

***

#### Important: Canva exports create Assets, not Templates

Designs exported from Canva are saved to Rechat as **Assets**, not **Templates**.

**What’s the difference?**

* **Templates** → Editable inside Rechat (text, photos, layout, colors)
* **Assets** → Finalized designs that cannot be edited in Rechat

If you need to make changes later, simply update the design in Canva and re-export.
