Plan a paid media handoff
Make campaign assumptions and decisions legible to the next operator.
The scenario
A founder hands off a $6,000 monthly ad account with no record of which tests failed.
A single handoff page lists the economic target, budget owner, active tests, tracking checks, and why the last three experiments ended.
Apply it to your own work
Export the current campaign configuration and link naming conventions, creative rights, and approval contacts. Ask the new operator to explain the current budget split back to you.
What to watch for
A historical report is useful context, but it does not document who can approve a promotion or pause a broken campaign.
Run a handoff rehearsal
Ask the incoming operator to locate the budget cap, change approval path, conversion definitions, and campaign stop rule without guidance. Let them identify which changes require finance or sales input and where past tests are recorded.
Add a first-week checkpoint for billing, tracking, creative approvals, and lead quality. If an automated rule can pause or scale spend, document who owns it and how to reverse it. Share durable account access through named roles instead of personal credentials.

Divide remaining spend by the days left in a campaign. Adjust the daily figure for changes in expected demand.
