Years-with-us ruler
Years at work marked like a child's height on a door frame — the 'work anniversary' as a wall ruler with pencil marks climbing up it, one per landmark the post names, the latest in the brand colour; beside it the years set huge, the person's name and role and a line of thanks. Years you can literally see.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Years-with-us ruler for posts that start a conversation, hire or announce news, when the message is a timeline, a number or a story. It is built first to start a conversation.
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
The Director offers it only when these exist. Without them it simply picks another template.
- A real number from your post or your brand facts
- A real person: a founder, a team member or a customer
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 years, the name, the role and every milestone come from the post, in time order.
- Milestones are short marks ('2019 · joined as cashier'), never invented promotions or dates.
- The note thanks the person in the post's words.
Visual rules
- A tall height-chart ruler in a pale accent tint with fine ticks down the left edge; pencil lines cross it at rising heights with a handwritten milestone beside each, the newest one highest and in the brand colour.
- To the right: the logo, the number of years huge in the brand colour, 'years with us', the name in heading type, the role, an italic thank-you line and the website.
