Whether you are looking to create your business logo or you wish to send a message out to your subscribers, one thing that you might not consider is your font. Fonts are a visual aspect of your message that you may have not considered before, and while you know about the calligraphy font generator that you should never use Comic Sans in a serious email and that Papyrus is very overused, you may not have thought about what fonts can do for you.
