Doesn’t the slow design approval and review process bother you?
Imagine you’ve just designed something extraordinary. You then email it to your team and clients for review. And then you wait, for days or even weeks, before everyone reviews the design and send you their individual (often contradicting) opinions.
Not only that sound like a nightmare in 2021, but chaotic email threads also follow it.
This starts a rain of back and forth emails – change this, add that, remove this – and by the time you know it, a month has passed! AARGH!!
As a designer, the most challenging part of the design process has nothing to do with executing the design itself. The part that proves the toughest and most prolonged for most creatives is communicating the first draft changes until the final piece that the client loves lies a hoard of suggestions and feedback.
And the more projects you delay, the more your clients will be pissed. You’ll never know they’ll already be on the lookout for a faster designing team right now!
So, how do you save time during the design approval phase, simplifying it for both you and your clients? In this article, we explore why online proofing solutions like GoVisually saves you and helps you get faster design approval on creative assets.
Let’s begin!

Say no to back and forth emails!
Emails have always seemed part and parcel of the client and designer relationship. For even the slightest changes, a designer will receive emails to address that small point. The number of emails can quickly escalate over time.
That’s where online solutions within design annotation tools become handy. Apps like GoVisually allows everyone involved to work on a single page collaboratively. Thus giving you back the time to focus on designing or marketing your services.
Save you time clarifying questions.
Designer: What do you think of the kerning?
Client: Umm.. what do you mean kerning?
There is often a breakdown in communication between the client and the designer. Designers habitually use industry jargon and language that makes the client go, “What on earth is he saying!?”
Best solution – use no words! Annotation tools allow you to interact with fewer words and more visual expression.
Easy to use for your client
Your client has a lot on their plate; they are running their business, executing their trade, managing their staff and customers. On top, they have to process the material you have given them.
With GoVisually, you are giving your client an easy to use platform that encourages speedy use, saves them time in their workday, and promptly gets the changes back to you.
Supports a range of file types, including video!
Have you ever sent a design proof or a video only to have an email returned, complaining of being unable to open or access the file? Resulting in time spent finding an alternate file delivery system, costing you valuable design time and money?
GoVisually lets you work with all the standard creative and video formats, including JPGs, PNGs, PDFs, MP4, MOV, GIF, and PSDs for proofing. Giving you the freedom to share your files at super high quality. So no more converting file format and compromising quality for small file size.
Centralized feedback – don’t get lost!
Let’s face it while working as a team, everyone will have their own opinion and desired outcome for a project.
GoVisually allows you to centralize the feedback in one place, where the entire team collaborates. This lets you know exactly what each person wants and prevents double up revisions for the same changes.
Push your deadlines backward!
With designs getting reviewed and approved on-the-go there is no more fear of approaching deadlines. The faster you finished one work, the sooner you can jump onto a new one.
By presenting your work on such a modern platform, you are instantly creating a sense of professionalism with your client, building a trustworthy brand, all while saving you time and energy during the process.
