> Canonical: https://skedsocial.com/solutions/in-house-teams
For in-house brand and marketing teams whose posts need stakeholder, legal or leadership sign-off. Approvals, publishing and reporting in one place.
In-house brand teams on Sked Social

## Sign-off shouldn't live in email threads.

- Brand, legal and leadership replies scatter across inboxes.

- Posts go out late, or before anyone said yes.

- Nobody can find the final version.

### Decide who can approve, and when a post can go out

Set the statuses a post moves through, choose which teammates can move it to each one, and hold publishing until it reaches approved.

How it works

### From draft to published, with sign-off in between

1. Draft in Create post – Write the post once, then set it to ready for review.
1. Send a review link – Stakeholders and legal open the link. No login, nothing to install.
1. Approve or request changes – Feedback lands on the post, and every decision is time-stamped.
1. Publish on schedule – Approved posts go out at the time you set.

### Then publish, report and reply from the same place

- **Every brand and region, one workspace** – Group social accounts by brand or region, plan in one calendar, and schedule a post to several networks at once.
  - Accounts grouped by brand or region
  - Choose which accounts each teammate can access
  - One post, scheduled to several networks
- **Reports that arrive on schedule** – Build a report once and schedule it daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly, so results reach your team without a monthly scramble.
  - One-off or recurring reports
  - Daily to yearly schedules
  - Sent to people in your workspace
- **Replies in one inbox** – Comments and messages from Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn company pages and TikTok, plus Google Business reviews, land in one inbox, and each conversation can go to the right teammate.
  - Comments and messages together
  - Google Business reviews alongside
  - Assign conversations to teammates

## Questions about Sked for in-house brand teams

### Can stakeholders approve posts without a Sked Social login?

Yes. On Accelerate and Custom you send a review link. Stakeholders, legal and leadership approve or request changes from that link, with no account and no paid seat.

### Is there a record of who approved a post?

Every status change, including approvals and change requests, is saved in the post's history with a time stamp. Changes by teammates show their name. Approvals from a review link show the name set on that link, so give each reviewer their own link to see exactly who signed off.

### Can we stop a post from publishing until it's approved?

Yes. On Accelerate and Custom, you set which statuses allow publishing, so a post waits until it reaches approved. You also choose which teammates can move a post to each status.

### Can we run several brands or regions from one workspace?

Yes. Group social accounts by brand or region, and choose which accounts each teammate can access.

### Can reports go out to the team automatically?

Yes. Build a report once and schedule it to send daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly to people in your workspace.

### Which plan do in-house teams usually choose?

Accelerate, because it includes internal and external approvals with no-login review links. Custom suits larger teams that need more accounts, users or support.
