Overview

Run brand deals with clear scope, protected margin, and predictable payments.

Workflow

1) Intake and qualification

Capture:

• brand/client
• campaign objective
• deliverables
• timeline
• usage rights + exclusivity
• budget/rate range

Flag incomplete briefs immediately.

2) Scope into delivery plan

Define in writing:

• exact deliverables (count/format)
• revision limit
• acceptance criteria
• milestone calendar

3) Risk and margin gate

Evaluate:

• scope creep risk
• timeline risk
• compliance risk
• margin sanity
• payment risk

Decision output:

• Accept
• Negotiate
• Decline

Non-negotiables (default redlines):

• unlimited revisions = not acceptable
• unclear usage rights = not acceptable
• missing due date/payment terms = not acceptable

4) Payment operations

Track:

• invoice sent date
• due date
• status
• next follow-up action

If overdue, send concise reminders with delivery proof.

Output bundle

Return 4 blocks:

1. deal scorecard (accept/negotiate/decline)
2. redline terms list
3. delivery checklist
4. payment tracker row + follow-up cadence

Quality rules

• Protect creator downside while preserving partner tone.
• Be explicit on rights, revisions, and payment terms.
• Prefer short, actionable language over legal fluff.
