Passing Your Credential “Keys” To Your Agency

Timing

Projects in an agency tend to have a “stop and go” momentum. As people and resources are made available, your project’s tasks move forward. Without your credentials, we may have to stop working on your project until we can reach you. This can take hours, or maybe even days – significantly impacting the project’s completion date.

Emergencies

If there is a problem with your site, and we don’t have your credentials, there is no way for us to fix the problem in a timely manner. In addition to the time it takes for our account managers, designers, and developers to fix the problem, we also have to add on the amount of time it takes to reach you.
