Hanging OPEN card
The shop's OPEN card hanging on its painted front door: a card on a string from a nail, OPEN in big condensed letters with a come-in line written under it, and the timings on a small plate chained below — then the news in a headline. For 'open late', Sunday opening or 'new timings': the card every passer-by already reads.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Hanging OPEN card for posts that announce news, get people to act or teach, when the message is one sharp insight. It is built first to announce news.
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 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
- The hours are exactly the post's; say NOW OPEN only when the post announces an opening.
- The handwritten line on the sign is a greeting, never a fact.
- Never name a marketplace, payment, delivery or messaging app.
Visual rules
- A painted front door in the brand's deep colour with two raised panels and a brass knob; a cream card sign hangs from a nail on a string, 'OPEN' in big brand-colour condensed capitals inside a thin rim and a handwritten greeting under it.
- A small bright plate on two chains below the sign carries a clock and the hours; logo top-left, the headline and a button under the sign.
