Assembly manual
How the new thing works, drawn as flat-pack 'assembly instructions': the product name in condensed caps over a heavy rule, a 'you'll need' parts strip, then three or four boxed panels — a circled step number, a big line drawing, a short caption — joined by arrows, the last number filled in the brand colour. Everyone has followed one; it makes setup look as simple as it is.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Assembly manual for posts that teach, announce news or get people to act, when the message is steps or a process. 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
Any business. Nothing in it assumes what you sell, so the Director can offer it to a software company, a café or a coaching centre alike — whenever the post fits.

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 are the real setup or usage steps from the post, in order, each an action in a few words.
- The sheet label states the step count only when it matches the steps shown.
Visual rules
- A white instruction sheet on a pale brand ground: the title in condensed caps over a heavy ink rule, a 'you'll need' strip of outlined chips, then panels divided by ink rules.
- Each panel has an ink-ringed step number, a large line icon on a tint disc and a bold caption; arrows in the brand colour lead from panel to panel; the last number is a brand-colour disc.
