Choosing font pairings might NOT be high on your to-do list this week, but it is a good thing to know about

When establishing the design guide for your brand, the fonts you use consistently are important.

You want to appear pro and not amateur, so choose fonts that have a classic feel and design, without being commonplace. Fonts that come preloaded on your computer are usually a dead-ringer for homemade design, so look outside your hardware for some alternatives.

There are literally MILLIONS of fonts out there to choose from. When you start the process of creating your design guidelines you will run into this WALL of options that may stop you dead in your tracks, but don't worry- you have resources!

Dafont.com is a resource for finding fonts that you wouldn't normally find preloaded on your Mac or PC: https://www.dafont.com/


This resource lets you key in words or phrases to actually see what they would look like in the font style you're choosing, as well as establishing "Families" of fonts to help your search go faster
