About this template
Whether it is for one person or a whole group, the Forest Green Starry New Business Award gives sales leaders, managers and HR teams a timeless way to name a winner and make it official. It is shown here in forest green, with scattered stars, PT Serif headings and Source Sans 3 for the smaller text. Change a few words and it doubles as a staff award.
Suggested wording

How to customise it
Every word is editable, from the title to the signature line, including the master services agreement, new accounts and first-year value lines. Fonts can be swapped too; the defaults are PT Serif and Source Sans 3. Colours are yours to change: try Ink and Vermilion, or match your own brand colours. It works in landscape or portrait, on A4 or US Letter, without you having to move anything. There is an Arabic edition too, laid out right to left with Noto Naskh Arabic.
Printing tips
A cream, linen-textured paper of around 120 lb text (180 gsm) suits this classic layout. In the print dialog choose “Actual size” rather than “Fit”, so the border isn’t cropped. Sign it in blue or black ink once it is printed for a personal touch.
