AdCollab: How do notifications work?

In the world of sponsorships, timing is everything. AdCollab is designed to keep you, and your team, updated at every critical step of a campaign. You don’t need to stay glued to the dashboard, we’ll send an alert straight to your inbox whenever action is needed.

When will I receive a notification?

Email alerts are sent to all users connected to a show or its network (depending on their assigned role) for the following events:

  • New Sponsorship Invitations: When a brand wants to work with your show.

  • Campaign Updates: If there is a significant change to a campaign you've already accepted (such as a shift in the dates it will run).

  • Creative Briefs Uploaded: When the script or talking points are ready for you to review so you can start recording.

  • New Chat Messages: When an Acast planner sends a message in the project chat.

    • Tip: You can reply directly to the notification email, and your response will post automatically into the AdCollab chat.

  • Revision Requests: If a recording needs a quick tweak or a re-read.

  • Asset Approvals: The best kind of email: confirmation that your work is approved and the campaign is ready to launch.

Who receives these emails?

Notifications are sent based on your level of access:

  • Network-level users: Receive notifications for every show in the network.

  • Show-level users: Only receive notifications for the specific shows they are assigned to.

Role-based permissions determine which alerts you receive:

  • AdCollab Approvals: Covers notifications about initial deal terms, collaboration offers, and revenue estimates.

  • AdCollab Ad Production: Focuses on alerts related to the creative side, including brief updates and asset uploads.

Managing your notification preferences

If you’re not the best recipient for these notifications but would still like to keep AdCollab access, you can opt out of notifications:

  1. Go to your Account Profile settings.

  2. Locate the Sponsorship Manager updates checkbox.

  3. Uncheck the box to stop receiving emails. (You can turn them back on at any time by re-checking the box).

Important: If you opt out of notifications, you will need to check the AdCollab dashboard manually and regularly to ensure you don't miss invitation expiries or recording deadlines.
