Getting posts approved, without chasing

Whether a manager, a client or a compliance colleague signs off your posts, keep the review on the post, where everybody can see it.

Why it matters

What usually goes wrong

Approval by email tends to create several versions of the same caption. The approver replies to an old copy, the writer misses a comment and the wrong version goes out. Meanwhile, nobody can say for certain who agreed to what. Reviews also tend to pile up, because approvers have no single place to see what is waiting.

Getting posts approved
How Orbis Social helps

Step by step

  1. 1

    Decide who approves what

    Keep it as light as you can. A second person on every post suits some businesses, while others only review promotions or sensitive topics.

  2. 2

    Give people the right roles

    Make the sign-off person an approver and writers content creators, so that each person's access suits their job.

  3. 3

    Send posts for review

    When a draft is ready, send it for approval. The approver gets an in-app notification.

  4. 4

    Use comments for changes

    Approvers can request changes and say why. The writer updates the post and sends it back, and the audit log keeps a record.
