The five-stage tracker
Received, In Review, Proposal, Approval, Activation. Partners follow them in Scena; brands follow their request in Vella and, from signing, the partnership in Patron, on one WENOTIFT sign-in.
Deals die in inboxes.
A partnership involves a promoter, a brand, sometimes a label and an agency, often in different countries and time zones. Without one place that says where things stand, the status question becomes an email, the email becomes a thread, and the thread becomes the only record anybody has.
Four things you get.
Always know where the deal is.
Three steps, every time.
Open
A request enters at Received and the desk picks it up.
Move
The desk advances the stage as the work happens, and the partner sees it change.
Close
Activation means the partnership is live, and delivery is stamped on the same record.
Open a deal on the record.
Tell us what you are working on and a person from the partnerships desk replies, not a form.
