The handoff

A concise collection of relevant stories with source links and a proposed email ready for review.

Keep in mind

Summaries can miss context, repeat errors, or overstate a story, and an email can disclose reading preferences to the wrong audience. Check important claims against their sources, respect publication terms, and approve the exact digest and recipient list before distribution.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Assign editorial and distribution reviewers
