Sponsor Asset And Approval Register
Control sponsor logos, artwork, copy, video, web and signage approvals with this editable Sponsor Asset And Approval Register. Brand and commercial teams complete Event Setup, then track each Asset Register row through specifications, source files, approval deadlines and revision rounds. It prevents outdated placements and missed approvals — and is not a hospitality guest planner, fulfilment delivery tracker or ROI valuation model.

Common mistakes to avoid
- Using a general marketing asset register for contracted sponsor placements — Track sponsor-specific placements and approvers here so commercial commitments stay visible.
- Confusing asset approval with hospitality guest planning — Approve logos and artwork here; manage guest lists in the sponsor hospitality planner.
- Sending assets to production without a final approved version — Confirm the final approved version and production status in Asset Register before release.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as a general marketing asset register?+
No. It focuses on sponsor assets and commercial placement approvals rather than general marketing creative.
Does it calculate sponsor ROI?+
No. It tracks approvals. Use the sponsor ROI report model for estimated value and value-multiple calculations.
Which sheets track sponsor assets through review and approval?+
Instructions, Event Setup and Asset Register.
When should sponsor artwork move to production?+
Move it only when placement, specification, source file and final approval are recorded. Keep prior versions distinct from the approved asset.
