4 Signs Your Team Has Outgrown Email for Creative Feedback

Email is great for scheduling meetings. It is terrible for Creative Feedback.

If you are using email to manage the final review of your Brand Creatives, you are likely experiencing these four painful symptoms. Recognizing them is the first step toward adopting a modern Online Proofing solution.

1. You Waste Hours Chasing Approvals
  • The Symptom: Your designer waits days for a simple "Approved."

  • The Fix: Online Proofing systems have automated reminders and clear due dates, leading to reliably Faster Approvals.

2. You Can't Consolidate Feedback on Creatives
  • The Symptom: You get ten emails back with conflicting notes.

  • The Fix: A Collaborative Review platform centralizes all notes, giving the designer one consolidated set of Creative Feedback.

3. You Constantly Question Version Control
  • The Symptom: You open a folder of assets labeled V1, V2, V3, and V-Final-Real-Deal.

  • The Fix: Online Proofing offers mandatory and automated Version Control, simplifying your entire Proofing process.

4. You Can’t Prove Who Approved What
  • The Symptom: A costly error is found after launch, and no one can definitively prove who signed off.

  • The Fix: Dedicated systems provide a mandatory, time-stamped digital audit trail, ensuring accountability and Brand Compliance.

It's time to upgrade your workflow. Join the proofrr waitlist for the ultimate solution to feedback chaos.
