The handoff

A source-aware post draft with its proposed audience, destination, and editorial approval status.

Keep in mind

A popular search is not automatically relevant, accurate, or appropriate for a brand. Check original sources and claims, avoid private or misleading material, follow each community’s expectations, and approve the exact text, account, and destination before public posting.

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.
