Meeting deadlines and securing timely approvals are critical to ensuring the success of your project and keeping everything on track. Here’s what you need to know about how we manage approvals and deadlines:
Why Timely Approvals Matter
Keeps the Project on Schedule: Delays in approvals can impact timelines and push back deliverables.
Ensures Quality Work: Approvals help us confirm that the work aligns with your expectations before moving to the next stage.
Maintains Momentum: Timely feedback allows us to implement changes quickly and move forward efficiently.
Approval Process
Review Deliverables Promptly: We’ll send deliverables via our client portal or online proofing platform for your review. For the best experience, we recommend accessing the platform on a desktop or laptop.
Feedback and Approvals: Provide clear feedback or approval within 2–3 business days to avoid bottlenecks. If additional stakeholders need to review, please consolidate feedback before submission.
Final Sign-Off: For major deliverables (e.g., strategy documents, campaign launches), we require a formal sign-off to proceed with execution.
Setting Deadlines
Deliverable Deadlines: We’ll outline deadlines for each stage of the project during onboarding and provide regular updates on progress.
Feedback Deadlines: To keep the project moving, we’ll set a timeline for feedback and approvals. If you need more time, please let us know in advance.
Launch Deadlines: For campaigns, we’ll confirm a launch date early in the project. Meeting all prior deadlines ensures a smooth and timely launch.
What Happens if Deadlines Are Missed?
Client Delays: If feedback or approvals are delayed, we may need to adjust the overall timeline or prioritize other tasks. We’ll communicate any impacts on deadlines proactively.
Internal Delays: If unforeseen circumstances on our end delay a deliverable, we’ll notify you immediately and work to minimize disruption.
Adjustments: For significant changes to timelines, we’ll work with you to establish a new schedule that accommodates both parties.
How to Stay on Track
Be Responsive: Promptly review deliverables and provide feedback within the agreed-upon timeframe.
Consolidate Input: Ensure all stakeholders provide their input at once to avoid conflicting or redundant edits.
Ask Questions: If you’re unclear about a deliverable or timeline, don’t hesitate to ask for clarification.
By staying aligned on approvals and deadlines, we can ensure a seamless workflow and deliver work that meets your goals on time. If you have specific concerns or preferences for managing deadlines, let us know—we’re here to collaborate and support you.
