Industry solution / Creative & Media

Know which creative the client approved before it goes to print

For agencies keeping the client brief, requested changes, approval status and effort visible. A project marked ready is not a substitute for the client checking the actual wording.

  1. Brief against the work

    Keep audience, message, tone and delivery date available as concrete instructions.

  2. Review before approval

    Track the named asset, comment, correction round and status without treating a change request as a sign-off.

  3. Check recorded effort

    Review entered hours and campaign costs separately against the agreed scope before billing.

How Sektura helps with everyday work

A wrong opening time on the brochure

Fictional example: an agency is preparing a café opening brochure for print. Just before delivery, the client spots the wrong time on its front page.

  1. Name the correction

    The account manager records the brochure name and the exact change, checking the brief for the deadline and message.

  2. Revise the working file

    The designer edits the file in their own tool; the agency records the comment and another correction round.

  3. Wait for the actual answer

    Only after the authorised client contact confirms the corrected copy does the team update the status and proceed with its print handoff.

An open correction stays distinct from confirmed approval. The team can review its entered hours before charging for the work.

Getting started is simple

How it works

  1. Create a fictional brief

    Enter a sample café brochure with audience, message, tone and deadline.

  2. Try one correction

    Name the asset, note a wrong opening time and walk through a correction round.

  3. Review effort separately

    Enter test hours for the client and compare an invoice draft with the agreed work.

Questions before you start

Can a client give legally binding approval here?
The team can record status, approver name, comments and history. An external binding signature process is not established.
Does the approval area store the design file?
It follows the named asset and correction record; file storage or automatic creative versioning is not shown.
Do Google or Meta costs appear without setup?
An import exists for configured accounts. Provider access, permissions and data coverage need to be checked individually.

Before production

Agree who can approve, how the actual answer is retained and which costs are agency work or third-party spend.

Brochure draft awaiting print approval

A client requests changes to a brochure draft before approving it for print.

  1. Review the requested changes and affected draft version.

  2. Prepare the revised version and note the remaining work.

  3. Agree approval or further corrections with the client.

The draft version and client decision are recorded on the project.
