WHAT THE ACCOUNT MANAGER DOES NOT OWN

- Strategy authorship: Creative Strategy builds the strategy. The Account Manager reviews it for client fit and presents it.

- Project logistics: Project Management owns Teamwork, timelines, and resource allocation. The Account Manager feeds client priorities and deadlines into that process.





- Creative direction and quality: Creative Strategy and Editorial own this, and conduct the first review of all deliverables. The Account Manager flags client preferences, not creative quality.

- Report production: Reports are built by the team in our reporting workflow. The Account Manager reviews, presents, and follows up on them.

- Pricing and final commercial approval: The Managing Director approves pricing and signs off on SOWs.

KEY OUTPUTS

- Weekly: Client communication log, content calendars reviewed and signed off, internal status sync with Project Management
