Campaign creative help in Marietta

A launch needs more than an idea

Missing promotional materials or an offer that's hard to explain? Start with what's unfinished, then request local design or copywriting help for your campaign.

Gather four things before the next conversation

The offer: Write down who the promotion is for, what they get and what you want them to do. Include any conditions or dates that must appear. If the offer is still undecided, flag that rather than writing around it.

The required formats: List where the campaign will appear—a postcard, shop sign, email, website page or ad. Gather dimensions or publisher specifications if you have them; mark anything unknown.

The approved assets: Locate your current logo files, brand guidelines, approved photos and existing copy. Separate usable material from drafts or images whose usage rights still need checking.

The deadline: Note the launch date and any earlier artwork, printing or approval deadlines. Distinguish a fixed date from a preferred one so a prospective provider can assess the scope.

Is the message missing, or the material?

You may need writing, design or both. Naming what's already approved helps keep the request focused.

Copywriting makes the offer clear

If customers cannot quickly tell what you're offering or what to do next, the words need attention before layout. A copywriting brief should name the audience, the offer, the supporting facts and the action you want someone to take.

  • Identify the pieces that need words: headlines, emails, ads or landing pages.
  • Flag claims, conditions and details that need your approval.
  • Say whether existing copy needs editing or new copy is needed.

Design prepares each campaign format

If the message is approved but the materials are missing, focus the request on layout and production. Print pieces need specifications such as size, bleed and printer requirements; digital assets need dimensions, file types and versions for each placement.

  • Count the distinct pieces, sizes and versions—not just the campaign.
  • Clarify whether editable source files are part of delivery.
  • Separate artwork creation from printing, mailing, publishing or ad setup.

Set the boundaries before production starts

A looming launch makes a clear scope more important, not less. Use these decisions to compare proposals and discuss what's feasible.

01

Confirm the deliverables

Ask for a written list of copy, designs, sizes, file formats and versions. Check whether image licensing, production coordination and final file handoff are included or priced separately.

02

Name the approver

Identify who can approve the offer, copy and artwork, and who will combine feedback. Discuss review dates alongside the launch date so approval time is part of the schedule.

03

Define revision limits

Confirm how many revision rounds are included and what counts as a change in scope. Ask how a new offer, extra format or late feedback would affect fees and timing.
