Draft review ensures creators’ content is aligned with your brand before it goes live. Later Influence provides built-in Draft and Draft Review workflow stages to manage this process efficiently.
To enable these stages, see: Workflow Stages: Draft & Draft Review
Where to Review Drafts
- Go to the Workflow tab of your campaign.
- Select the Draft Review stage.
- Click the arrow (
|←) to open a creator’s campaign details. - Navigate to the Drafts tab to view all of that creator's submitted drafts.
How to Review Drafts
For each draft deliverable, you’ll see:
- The uploaded image or video.
- The proposed caption (hashtags, mentions, links).
- Submission date and deliverable details.
Check for:
- Brand guidelines (tone, product placement, logo usage).
- Legal compliance (FTC disclosure, required hashtags).
- Accuracy (correct promo codes, dates, links).
- Quality (resolution, framing, creative fit).
Feedback Options
Each draft can be marked as:
- Approved → Ready to publish. No further action needed.
- Approved with Corrections → Publishable with small edits (no resubmission required).
- Needs Work → Major revisions required. Creator must resubmit.
Don't forget to add notes in the Feedback for the Influencer field — which is visible to creators in their campaign manager.
You can also add Internal Comments (visible only to your team).
