Create stunning marketing materials without the big budget

As a small or medium-sized business owner, you know how hard it can be to compete with the big guys—especially when it comes to marketing.

With limited budgets and resources, creating eye-catching visuals that catch your customers’ attention can feel like a huge challenge. But here’s the good news: HubSpot and Canva have just made it easier for SMEs like you to create professional-looking marketing materials without the need for expensive tools or design experience. Imagine this: You’re working on an email campaign in HubSpot and realize you need a catchy visual to grab your readers’ attention. Instead of jumping between different platforms or waiting on a designer, you just click the “Design with Canva” button within HubSpot. And just like that, you’re transported to Canva’s easy-to-use design tools, where you can create stunning graphics in minutes.

The best part? You don’t need to be a designer to create professional-quality images. With access to Canva’s massive library of templates, stock photos, and AI-powered tools, you can produce everything from eye-catching social media posts to custom illustrations—all within the HubSpot platform. It’s quick, easy, and designed for people who want to get things done without fuss.
