# **What Are the Different Sections of your Business Account?**

This guide is for brand, media, product, growth, and operations teams responsible for launching, operating, or scaling a **brand-owned Commerce Media Network** across web and mobile apps.

Use this guide when you need to:

- Understand how Business Account is structured
- Identify where specific workflows live (content, communities, monetization, moderation, reporting)
- Operate a Commerce Media Network with clear ownership, governance, and accountability
- Scale video, UGC, and AI-assisted content without losing control

Running a Commerce Media Network is not a single workflow, it’s an interconnected system. Content creation, community structure, distribution, safety, monetization, and measurement must work together.

**Business Account is designed to be that system.** Each section of your Business Account maps to a distinct stage in the content and community lifecycle, ensuring brands maintain **control, trust, and performance visibility** as they scale.

## **What Business Account Enables for Brands**

With your Business Account, brands can:

- Centralize all community and content operations in one governed interface
- Deliver contextual, video-first experiences across websites and apps
- Apply consistent brand safety, moderation, and editorial standards
- Convert engagement into measurable outcomes, including revenue
- Operate like a media network, not just a content feed
