By consolidating everything that needs review into one spreadsheet and handing the client batches of pages (for example, five pages in 30 minutes), so they approve rewrites in one place instead of page by page, keeping the team set for about a month.

Quick Answer

  • Put everything that needs review into one spreadsheet so the client isn't chasing individual pages.
  • Hand the client batches, like five pages they can knock out in 30 minutes, then approve with a thumbs up.
  • One reviewed batch keeps the team set for about a month, then you run the next batch.

This fits inside a bigger picture. If you want the full view first, here's the bigger picture.

How to make content review easy for clients

Brenton Thomas, who runs the agency Twibi, explains the simple system his team uses so clients can stay engaged without it eating their day.

"Me and my team, we put everything into spreadsheets. We consolidate everything that needs to be reviewed all into one spreadsheet. The client doesn't have to look at each individual page. It's like, here's a batch of pages. So if you have 30 minutes, you can knock out five pages and then we'll take it from there." — Brenton Thomas

The batch approach also keeps the cadence predictable, so the team always knows what's approved and what's next.

"We'll basically write everything and you do the rewrites for the pages and give us a thumbs up. And then in that batch, after it's reviewed, we're good for about a month. And then we'll do another batch next month. So that works really well to consolidate everything that needs to be reviewed." — Brenton Thomas

The practical takeaway: lower the review burden by batching the work into one place, and the client gives you fast approvals while the team stays productive for weeks.

Doing the thing is the easy part. The hard part is knowing where you're already winning and where you're invisible. That's exactly what our free AI Visibility Snapshot shows you, before you spend a dollar.
