Routine dial
A 'how to use' routine on a progress dial: the cover lists every step of the routine on a numbered line, then each page fills the dial one step further — the step's number inside the ring, its timing on a chip, what to do and with which product beneath — and the last page closes the ring with a tick. For skincare routines, appliances and gadgets people need to get right.

When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Routine dial for posts that teach or get people to act, when the message is steps or a process, one product in the spotlight or a list. It is built first to teach.
It reads each post’s goal and shape first, then its own words, the platform and the facts you have, and offers this template only where it fits.
Who it’s for
Made for Beauty & personal care, Fashion & accessories, Home & living, Retail & e-commerce stores, Fitness & wellness, Food & drink · Sells to consumers, Serves customers locally. The Director offers it only to brands of that kind, so it never turns up for a business it does not suit.

What it needs
Only your post. It is made from your copy and your brand kit — there is nothing else to prepare.
Rules the AI follows
Word for word from the template library. The Director follows the copy rules when it writes into the template, and the visual review checks every creative against the visual rules.
Copy rules
- Steps in the order the post or the product's instructions give them; amounts and timings exactly as stated.
- Each page is one action a reader can follow, naming the product only as the post names it.
- The cover names the routine; the last page asks for one action.
Visual rules
- A pale brand ground; the cover lists the steps as numbered brand dots joined by a thin line, with a large empty ring behind them.
- Each step page shows a progress ring filled to its step (the step number large inside, 'of N' under it, the timing on a chip on the ring) above (beside, on square) the step's label, name and how-to.
- The last page shows the closed ring with a tick over the call to action; logo top left and n / N top right.
