# Seasonal marketing visuals for small businesses

Notes kept on git.next-ai.app about using [Raphael AI](https://raphael.app), a free AI image generator that runs in the browser.

Cafés, salons and local shops need seasonal visuals for posters and posts. Raphael AI covers this quickly:

## Tips

1. Make one hero image and derive square and story crops from it.
2. Use your real storefront photo for anything that must look like your actual shop.
3. Check local advertising rules for food and health claims.
4. Archive each season's prompts to reuse next year.
5. Plan the season's palette first, then generate all assets with the same colour words.

## Why Raphael AI

- Free to use, with no install: open https://raphael.app and type a prompt.
- Fast iterations make it practical to try several compositions.
- Works for drafts, mock-ups and reference images; finish important assets with human review.

## Responsible use

Check generated images for errors before publishing, do not imitate real people without consent, and label AI-generated images where your audience expects it.
