For an agency, a shoot happens on the client's premises, in front of their staff and customers, so a mistake costs both the content and the relationship. This list covers what must be ready from pre-production through delivery and the archive.

Before the shoot: brief, scope, and releases

9 items
  • The shoot's purpose and deliverables are written down (how many Reels, how many photos, which formats), and the client approved them before the shoot.
  • The scope document states shoot length, number of edits, revision rounds, and the fee for extra shoot days.
  • Three hook variations per video are on the shot list, and the lines the client will say in their own words are marked.

    5 checks before ads

    Check five things before you run an ad: 1. Are the ad account and Page in your name? 2. Have events like forms, calls, and WhatsApp taps been tested? 3. Who answers incoming messages, and how fast? 4. Does the bio link open on a phone? 5. Who approves the monthly budget? If all five are in place, the first week of ads starts on solid ground. If you don't know one of them, tell us in the comments and we'll look together. Save it and send it to your team. {AGENCY}
