Posters are used when you want to get your message out there to attain instant visibility and draw attention to important information. In addition to being used outdoors and indoors, nowadays posters can come in handy when creating an online marketing campaign or publishing content on social media. 

There are so many use cases for posters, including:

1. Advertising. From small and medium businesses to events and concerts – a poster is your go-to format if you want to reach an audience. Use posters to make an immediate visual impression on your potential and existing customers. You can get continuous exposure and reach a wide audience as long as you leave the poster hanging. For businesses or brands, posters can help to polish your brand, boost brand visibility, and target the consumer audience.
2. Education. Engaging educational posters are great for grabbing attention and breaking down the curriculum into easy-to-digest chunks. By using posters, educators can improve students' understanding and create an encouraging learning environment. Students, on the other hand, can present their projects in a visually appealing way. 
3. Politics. You know when elections are coming when there's a flood of political posters in your area. Political posters are very specific and rich in tradition, but also important in contemporary political discourse. Political posters can promote a candidate or a party, inspire optimism and hope, or spur activism. 
4. Decoration. Sometimes, there's no educational or informational context for your poster. You just want it to create that beautifying touch and brighten up your home, office, workshop, or cafe. Create a unique decorative poster and add character to your space.

Infogram's poster maker allows you to create stunning posters in just 5 steps:

Infogram is super easy to use and made with non-designers in mind. Even if you don't have any programming, coding, or design experience, you'll be able to create beautiful posters in just a couple of steps.

You can add new objects to your poster from the left-side toolbar of the editor. Click on a category (e.g., Add text), then select the object you'd like to use. Click on the object for it to appear on the canvas or simply drag it onto your poster.

To access background settings, click on the canvas without selecting any objects. Head over to the settings panel on the right where you can change the image, add filters to it, as well as alter image transparency and blur. 

Definitely! Poster templates can be edited just like any other Infogram project. Check out our step-by-step guides on how to customize your projects and design your perfect poster.
