Your own people sign it off first. The client decides last, through a link.
Why it fits
Built for advertising agencies
The approval is pinned to the file
What the client approved is recorded against the exact file they were sent, with the address it went to and the time. Earlier versions stay, with their comments.
More on thisNobody signs off their own work
An art director never signs off artwork they made, and a media director never signs off a plan they built. Only the client’s own link can answer for the client.
More on thisBooked, run, invoiced, billed
Each media owner’s booking moves on its own, from insertion order to proof of flight to an invoice checked against what was booked, before the client is billed.
