Save Time Promoting your Products with Photoshop Image Presets

If there is one thing i’ve learned on my recent journey as a TPT seller “noob” it’s that image creation can be a pain in the A$$. Why? Mainly because of the multitude of image sizes required for the myriad of social media platforms!

My solution? Set up “Image Presets” in Photoshop so that I no longer need to research optimal image size each time I want to write a blog post!

2) Select “Create New” in Photoshop and enter in the dimensions as required. Here is an example for Facebook that I have input: Screen Shot 2016-05-11 at 8.49.45 PM
3) Click “Save Preset” and enter ensure that all boxes are checked and that you rename your preset based on the social media platform you are using, like so:

4) Voila! You are finished with your first preset! Now you just need to repeat steps 2&3 to create any other presets you may need. I would highly recommend setting up a minimum of Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram if you want to maximize your reach!

One of my go-to websites for social media info is the Marketing Tech Blog, which is where I found this great post with the below guide produced by Make A Website Hub.  I also really like The Social Media Examiner as well for new trends in Social Media.
