I need a clean, print-ready poster for a weekend promo using current product images and the store logo; header copy arrives in one hour. I worry about logo placement crowding the product. Recommend a safe layout approach that keeps product dominance, respects brand clearspace, and leaves flexible space for the incoming header without rework. Give the exact sequence to build the poster quickly and the export checklist for the printer.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed.

The real tasks

1 of them
I have to produce a clean poster for a weekend promo using existing product shots and the store logo; the header copy arrives in an hour and the store manager is breathing down my neck. I can layout fast, but I'm not sure how much breathing room the logo needs beside the product. Tell me the safe layout approach that keeps product prominence and legal brand spacing so the manager doesn't reject it at final proof.
