How to Brief a Creative Agency (So You Get Better Work Faster)

Start a Brief

A strong brief is the fastest way to reduce revisions and improve output quality.

**Use this structure:**

- Objective (what must change?)

- Audience (who exactly?)

- Offer/value (why care?)

- Mandatories (logos, legal lines, brand rules)

- Deliverables (formats + sizes)

- Timeline (drafts + approvals)

- Budget range (even a bracket helps)

If you're not sure, start the brief anyway — Adshop will convert it into a scoped plan with a vetted team.
