Approval
The formal sign off from the people who must review your email before it goes out. It is the step where stakeholders confirm the content is correct, safe, and on brand.
Approval is the step where someone with authority checks your email before you send it. It might be a manager, legal, brand, or a client. They look at copy, design, links, and basic details. The goal is to catch problems before the email reaches your list.
A clear approval process saves you from painful mistakes like wrong prices, broken links, or off brand messages. It also helps you avoid last minute panic before a big send. When everyone knows who must approve and by when, campaigns move faster. You spend less time chasing replies in long email threads.
A simple way to improve approvals is to decide who approves which type of email ahead of time. For example, legal checks sensitive offers, and marketing checks layout and tone. Set a short review window and share a final deadline. If someone does not respond in time, agree that the send can still go ahead.
