ApproveThis manages your NetBase Quid Integration approvals.

When Approval Workflows Meet Market Intelligence

Approval processes often bottleneck marketing teams just as critical opportunities emerge. NetBase Quid delivers real-time consumer insights, but acting on them requires coordinated decisions across stakeholders. This is where ApproveThis transforms data into action.

By connecting NetBase Quid's market intelligence with ApproveThis' structured approval workflows through Zapier, companies gain two strategic advantages:

• Trigger approval workflows automatically based on social listening data
• Execute approved actions directly within NetBase Quid's platform

A beverage company used this integration to reduce response time to viral TikTok trends from 72 hours to 9 minutes. Their legal team reviews potential campaigns triggered by NetBase Quid sentiment spikes, while regional managers approve localized adaptations through parallel workflows.

Three Teams That Benefit Immediately

1. Crisis Management Teams

When NetBase Quid detects emerging PR crises through sudden sentiment shifts, ApproveThis automatically routes escalation requests to designated responders. Approval thresholds ensure only C-level executives review high-risk responses, while regional leads handle localized issues.

2. Content Marketing Teams

User-generated content flagged by NetBase Quid's AI as brand-relevant triggers approval requests to legal and creative teams. Approved assets get automatic rights management flags in NetBase Quid's platform using calculated fields for usage terms.

3. Product Launch Teams

Pre-launch social listening in NetBase Quid initiates phased approval workflows. Early buzz metrics determine which mockups get executive review, while regional pricing approvals trigger only when conversation volume crosses predefined thresholds.

Why This Integration Works

NetBase Quid excels at detecting opportunities but wasn't built for cross-functional decision-making. ApproveThis adds critical layers:

Compliance Safeguards

Automatically require legal review for posts containing regulated terms identified through NetBase Quid's NLP capabilities.

Budget Control

Sync campaign budgets from approval requests into NetBase Quid's performance forecasts using calculated fields.

Global Coordination

Regional teams approve localized responses in their time zones while maintaining brand consistency through centralized templates.

Getting Started

Begin with high-impact/low-risk scenarios:

1. Influencer content approvals for brands with strict guidelines
2. Rapid response protocols for customer service escalations
3. Budget reallocations based on real-time campaign performance

Key reminder: External partners can approve requests via email without needing NetBase Quid licenses - critical for agencies managing client approvals.

Final Recommendation

Companies using NetBase Quid for social listening but lacking structured approval processes leave value on the table. The Zapier integration with ApproveThis turns insights into approved actions while maintaining necessary controls.
