Why Agencies Fail With Campsend in Client Delivery Workflows
Symptom: Clients complain that links expire before they review the files, forcing re-sends and missed deadlines. Root cause: Campsend's 30-day link expiry is a default that agencies often forget to adjust, so longer review cycles break.

Symptoms
- •Clients complain that links expire before they review the files, forcing re-sends and missed deadlines.
- •Agency staff manually re-upload the same assets for each client because the file library is underused.
- •Delivery open rates stay low, yet no one checks the tracking dashboard to follow up with clients.
- •Branded delivery pages look inconsistent because some team members skip customizing the cover image on the Pro plan.
- •Recipients reply with files on the same page, but those replies are never routed to the right project folder.
Root Causes
- •Campsend's 30-day link expiry is a default that agencies often forget to adjust, so longer review cycles break.
- •The free plan's 15 deliveries per month cap pushes agencies to batch sends, which delays client feedback loops.
- •Agencies treat Campsend as a simple transfer tool, ignoring the file library and reply features that reduce re-uploading and email back-and-forth.
- •Per-user pricing at $9/mo for Pro and $49/mo for Team makes it easy to overspend on seats for staff who rarely send files.
Fast Fixes
- •In Campsend settings, set a longer expiry window for client review links, such as 60 or 90 days, to match project timelines.
- •Train the team to upload every final asset to the file library once, then reuse it across multiple deliveries instead of re-uploading.
- •Assign one person to review the tracking dashboard weekly and send follow-up emails to clients who haven't opened their delivery.
- •On the Pro plan, add a custom cover image to every delivery template so each client sees consistent branding.
