Bring order to your advertising pipeline. This internal request form captures ad type, channel placement, creative asset status, target audience, budget, and launch date — so your media team or agency has a complete brief before campaign setup begins. No more half-baked ad requests by email.
An advertising request form is the intake mechanism that keeps a marketing or media team from being overwhelmed by unstructured ad requests from across the business. Sales teams, product divisions, and regional offices all need advertising support — and without a consistent intake process, requests arrive incomplete, out of sequence, and without budget authorization.
A well-structured form requires requesters to specify the ad type, target channel, audience, CTA, and budget before the media team begins any work. The creative asset status field is particularly important: knowing upfront whether creative needs to be produced prevents the most common timeline bottleneck in campaign execution — waiting for assets that were never ordered.
formformform makes it easy to centralize all ad requests through a single form, regardless of where requesters sit in the organization. The form can be shared via a Slack channel, embedded in an intranet, or linked from a marketing services portal. Every submission is timestamped, attributed, and searchable — giving the marketing team a complete record of what was requested, approved, and launched each quarter.

knowing whether assets are ready, partially ready, or need full production is the single most important factor for accurate timeline planning.
an ad without a destination is incomplete; making this field required prevents the campaign team from discovering a missing landing page at launch.
for organizations with formal budget approval, include an 'Approved by (finance/manager)' name field or require a budget code to ensure spend is pre-authorized.
requiring requesters to state their success metric (CPL, CPA, impressions, ROAS) aligns expectations before media planning and prevents post-campaign disputes about performance.
add a paragraph note specifying that requests need to be submitted at least 5–10 business days before the desired launch date for standard ads and 15+ days for complex campaigns.
these are related but different decisions; asking for both separately surfaces cases where the requested format is incompatible with the intended channel.
You need the ad type, target channel, audience description, primary CTA, budget, and desired launch date. If creative assets exist, a link to them. If creative needs to be produced, a brief description of the visual and copy direction helps the team scope the work.
For standard digital ads with existing creative, 5–7 business days before launch is typical. For campaigns requiring new creative production, 15–20 business days is more realistic. Out-of-home and print ads often have longer lead times set by the vendor.
Yes. The ad type dropdown includes out-of-home (billboards, transit), print, and radio alongside digital formats. Add any format-specific fields your offline campaigns require, such as print dimensions or OOH locations.
Add an 'Approved by' name field or a budget code field to the form. This creates a paper trail showing budget was authorized before the media team begins work. You can also add conditional logic to notify a manager for requests above a certain spend threshold.
