Write an essay-Jun 11

Write an essay about a new business you want to create and what color(s) you will use.
Example: If you’re designing a new restaurant, what colors would you use for the outdoor signs, interior (walls/floor/ceiling/furniture), tableware, and employee uniform? For or to achieve what?

[Intro] My new business will be Bringing Nature Home. It will be a landscaping company. I love planting flowers and trees, and I think I am good at it.
[Body] [SS-1] I will go to people’s homes and make their gardens more beautiful. I will not need an office because I will work outside. [SS-2] I will buy a van and paint it blue. The blue will represent the sky. When customers see blue, they will think of peaceful environments and the fresh air that plants need. [SS-3] I will put the name of my business on all sides of the van. I will use green letters. Green will make customers think about nature and plants.
[CS] I think my landscaping business will be popular because I will use color psychology to attract customers, and I will be able to advertise Bringing Nature Home wherever I go.
