In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/financesonline.com\/graphic-design-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">over 60 percent of digital marketers<\/a> share that visual assets are essential to effective marketing strategies &#8211; and there\u2019s plenty of proof to back this up. For example, when people hear or read a message, they can recall and relay about <a href=\"https:\/\/financesonline.com\/graphic-design-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10 percent of this information<\/a> three days later. However, when that same message is paired with some visual graphic, people can remember 65 percent of the information after the same amount of time.<\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s the kicker: You can only use the assets that you know you have. So, there could be plenty of unused assets, or worse &#8211; your organization could wind up spending time and resources to recreate assets you already had but didn\u2019t know were there.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most important things you can do when moving to a DAM solution is to <strong>conduct an audit<\/strong> of your existing assets, looking for things like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What assets do you have?<\/li>\n<li>What kinds of assets will you need to manage?<\/li>\n<li>What are your assets used for?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This audit can help you not only make better use of your existing assets but also get a better idea of your digital asset management goals and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comosoft.us\/lat\/blog\/finding-your-best-dam-self-in-2023\/\">find a DAM solution that fits your specific needs<\/a>. For example? A DAM solution designed to manage videos and images over multiple channels and outlets might mean that you should choose a DAM with an integrated workflow tool that fosters faster approval, collaboration, and distribution.<\/p>\n<p>When moving to a <b>cloud-based DAM platform like LAGO<\/b>, an audit will help you compile all your assets across your entire organization and bring them together in one place.

Permissions<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p>DAM solutions are used to unify the work of multiple departments and many team members whom all play different roles within the same organization. Establishing things like roles and permissions not only makes it easier for everyone to use the same platform, but this process also gives all your assets an extra layer of security.<\/p>\n<p>When you set roles and permissions, you can limit access to certain assets to specific campaigns or even a single team or department. This layer of permissions means unauthorized users can\u2019t gain access to assets they don\u2019t need, those still in development, and those awaiting approval. As a result, your assets stay secure, and everyone uses the most current version of every asset in your toolbox. Especially with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comosoft.us\/lat\/lago\/software-solutions\/digital-asset-management-system\/\">cloud-based DAM platforms like LAGO<\/a>, where cybersecurity is crucial, your team and third-party partners can securely access the assets they need from anywhere.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, it\u2019s a good idea to set up access control functionalities. Often, organizations are handling photos that are copyrighted or have been created with one use in mind. When you establish access controls and restrict access to these assets, you limit the chance that an asset winds up in an unapproved use case that could exceed the bounds of copyright agreements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BONUS: <\/strong>Speaking of copyright, you should use your DAM platform to set alerts on copyrighted assets to stay in the loop regarding upcoming expiration dates so you can renew licenses when necessary.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-5 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1206.4px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-5 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:10px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:10px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-4 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three blog-list\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:0px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:20px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:30;line-height:1.33;\"><ol start=\"4\">\n<li>Unify Your Naming Conventions<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7\"><p>Creating &#8211; and sticking with &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesstechweekly.com\/digital-and-online-marketing\/content-marketing\/digital-asset-management-best-practices\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">naming conventions<\/a> is an indispensable way to organize everything in your digital asset management system.

It helps you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesstechweekly.com\/digital-and-online-marketing\/content-marketing\/digital-asset-management-best-practices\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">optimize this data<\/a> as well. A critical best practice for digital asset management is to utilize analytical data to your advantage. After all, a DAM not only helps you organize and locate digital assets, but it also provides information like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When an asset was used.<\/li>\n<li>Who used it.<\/li>\n<li>What was it used for.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your entire team can use these features to unlock all insights about team engagement with your assets. Your DAM analytics tools can give you information about what assets are used most and discover which content gaps need to be filled, what\u2019s working, and what needs improvement.<\/p>\n<p>One example would be to discover which assets are used more or less frequently than others so you can modify underutilized and underperforming assets, so they serve your team &#8211; and your goals &#8211; better.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-7 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1206.4px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-7 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:10px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:10px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-6 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:0px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:20px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:30;line-height:1.33;\">Elevate Your DAM Potential<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-9\"><p>LAGO by Comosoft was created to help brands collaborate better.
