Great design isn't just about WHAT you're saying, but HOW and WHERE - color, size and placement can sell or sink your communication.
I design magazine covers for a travel company and have been getting tired with the 'same old fonts' - and while you want to stay within branding, I'm reminded that there is SOOO much creativity within a typeface, (I know, I'm a design nerd :) ), you just have to explore and have fun with it.
New challenge for myself: Find the NEXT big font family to represent communications and not to get too stuck in the fashionable- think forward!
