An honest way to time the handoff against the current design workflow
Your marketing team frequently needs a quick promotional image. Every social graphic request competes with brand campaigns and packaging work already on their plate. You want a way to generate a quick promotional image and hand it to Canva already broken into editable layers, allowing a designer to adjust it in minutes. Canva's Magic Layers feature, used inside a chat assistant, is built for exactly that handoff. I recommend assigning a team member to test it on one real image before it becomes part of your team's routine.
