Sitecore less known gems - Live site setup

Case A web editor has created a large amount of content that is ready to be published. However, in order to get the final 'OK' on this newly created content, he needs to get the buy-in of specific persons in the company. The default answer here would be to use the Sitecore preview mode or use well devised workflows within sitecore that are automatically notifying the correct group of persons by sending mails or updating their RSS coupling (in outlook for example). These notifications would in turn push the stakeholder into taking the right actions needed to ensure the content gets published in the correct form. However,  what is the best possible approach if your target audience has no knowlegde whatsoever of Sitecore? Users that don't have an account and can not (or should not) be motivated into adopting your well designed Sitecore content approval approach ? At that point the Sitecore Live Mode can come into play and offer a relatively elegant solution.
