Thyme Marketing Templates

  • Published June 29th, 2010 by Websites and Services
  • 2 Comments

We've got a new Designer Website coming out soon and to whet your appetite we've designed this FREE bundle to use in your internet marketing campaign! Included in the download are files for your Facebook profile picture, a background image and colors to use on Twitter, and a header for your blog!

All templates are layered Photoshop files. While sample data is included, you'll need to insert your logo and images. A basic knowledge of Photoshop and working with layers is recommended. Although Marathon cannot provide support for modifying these files, each PSD file should give you a great start!


Instructions:

  1. Within the downloaded ZIP file, you will find files marked for use on Facebook, Twitter, and Blog. Please open the PSD file that matches the social networking site you are working with.
  2. Select the layer of the image placeholder you wish to drop your first photo in to. Open the new photo you want to use to replace it, then drag or paste your photo directly over the image placeholder. Right click your photo and select "Create Clipping Mask". From here you can resize, rotate or drag your photo into it's desired position using the move tool. Continue repeating this process until all image placeholders are filled.
  3. Hide the logo layer and drop in your own logo. Feel free to add any additional design elements you want such as your tagline, address and/or phone number. Once you achieved your desired look, save as a .jpg file and upload to either Facebook or Twitter.
  4. For help with Twitter, log in and go to "Design." Which is found under Settings.
  5. If you need help updating your Facebook picture, try reading the documentation in the Facebook Help Center.

Our newest design will be coming soon. Keep an eye on our blog! If you have a question about the Designer Websites these templates are based on, please visit our website or contact a websites and services representative by calling 800/228.0629.

Looking for something fun to do with your slideshow? Check out K&K Photography's homepage for a really creative idea. Christine took our Sage Package website design, picked out her colors, and customized the images to reflect her studio's personality. Here's what she had to say about the experience:


Marathon has helped our business by giving us the ability to showcase our great work with an affordable template that looks custom and my prospective clients love. Some clients even booked us just from our website!

We love our site for two reasons: 1- that we can easily update the galleries ourselves, and we have room to customize. And 2- we LOVE YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE! It's so important to know that anytime I call I can get help from any of the customer service reps with a problem and that in most cases it can be resolved immediately. I love Arlen and some of the other guys who have been so patient and helped me when I tortured them on many occasions with questions. Everyone is always efficient getting answers to my questions if they can't answer them right away and if I have a change that actually can't be implemented in my template, someone always gives me an alternative solution.

That is really comforting to know when you are a busy studio and you are always trying to change to keep up with the industry.

For all the reasons above, I have had a great overall experience with Marathon.

Thanks again!
Christine Kovnat
owner of K&K PHOTOGRAPHY


Thank YOU, Christine for such kind words! Congratulations on your beautiful website and keep up the good work!
