Format, length and number of deliverables. Posting dates and times. Disclosure requirements. Usage rights. Contact person and approval turnaround.

Before approving a draft

Product shown correctly and claims accurate. Code and offer correct. Link or link sticker present. Disclosure visible. Music and visuals licensed for brand use. Tone fits the creator's normal content.

Before content goes live
