We’ve been hard at work this past month improving our platform to make Cohley even more valuable for you. We hope you enjoy these updates as much as we do!

Here’s a quick summary:

  • Improvements to Briefs
  • Improvements to the Content Library
  • New features for Professional Briefs
  • And more! 

Improvements to Briefs

The Cohley team is working on a brand new look for brands that will improve your ability to vet creators and content within each Brief. A lot of these changes are still behind the scenes or in progress, but we have a few new items you can start using today:

  1. Notes have been repositioned to make them more accessible and easier to view in relation to the chat
  2. Chat can now be expanded or collapsed and will have a ‘New’ badge for any unread messages. Simply interact in the chat space for the badge to disappear. 
  3. Accept or Reject a creator without having to start a chat with them!

  1. Any filtered list of applicants can be messaged in mass. Simply use our additional filters, click on mass message, and the pop-up will confirm the number of recipients. (Note this previously only worked on Maybe creators.)
  2. A new look and feel for a Creator’s profile - improved navigation and removal of Social Profile and Social Metrics if the creator has not authorized Meta.
  3. Creator’s Cohley Work now includes videos and the brief type for the asset

Additionally, you can now easily update your brand logo! Navigate to your profile and click on the photo icon next to your logo. Upload a new logo and quickly zoom in or out to ensure it is captured within the circle for display. 

Cohley tip: Are you running a review brief? Next time you add a note about the deliverables, consider asking for the creator to add a video with their review. My gut tells me that a video of my pup loving his treat or new toy will perform better than a blurry photo, but please test to be sure!  

Improvements to the Content Library

An exciting update is now available in the Content Library! When you select multiple files and enter your email address, you will receive a zip file containing the original uploaded file - this includes jpg, raw, heic, and additional file types in their original format and size! Be sure to activate these files versus the compressed png that we use to display the file within Cohley.

New Features for Professional Briefs

Professional Briefs now have upgraded fields for brief creation, overview, and creator upload to ensure a strong agreement and understanding of expected deliverables between brands and creators. Brands will be able to select if they expect unedited or edited assets as the final deliverable, and can choose a date for when the first round of unedited assets will be due vs. the final edited assets. Payment remains a flat fee, but now provides the option to cover PayPal fees. Additionally, a question can be added that applicants are required to answer upon applying.

Bug Fixes

  • Style guide issues when copying a brief have been fixed
  • Navigating a user to the correct page in the brief creation when the user wants to select review integration products 
  • Professional creators were not able to update their profiles, this bug has been fixed.
  • Issues with saving images in Style Guides have been fixed
