In business and academic settings, it’s important to make a good first impression. If you’re giving a report, you want to look professional but friendly; formal but modern; presentable but with personality.
The same goes for the document you have in your hand. Whether it’s an annual report of your company’s finances, a research proposal for your doctorate, or your startup’s business plan for potential investors, you can make a good first impression just by having a sleek cover page.
Canva’s free cover page templates are unique and modern, so say goodbye to outdated word processor templates. Start by browsing through our template gallery for cover page examples and ideas. Are you submitting a financial report, a dissertation, a manuscript, or a business portfolio? Each of our free cover page designs includes basic text elements to highlight general information.
Once you’ve found a theme and palette that suits you, head to the dashboard and personalize the cover page sample for your report. Use the text editor to input the basic information on your cover. You can add new elements and section headers and change the text placement on the page. If you’re doing a cover page for your business plan or portfolio, change the colors and font family to suit your professional aesthetic. Explore our gallery for plenty of stock images to make your cover page stand out. Better yet, upload your own photos. Don’t forget to include the logo of your company or university, too. Feeling creative? You can find borders, shapes, and vectors to give your portfolio’s cover page design template a little more oomph.
