How automations help keep a creative agency’s recurring projects on track. 

 

Now that I’ve gone in-depth on how Pipefy Helps Our Ad Agency Field 100+ Requests Monthly, I thought I would share a simple hack in our workflow that you can apply to any project management pipeline.

 

For us, we know that every week we have to produce 6 newspaper ads. As such, we have created simple automations to create cards at a certain time every Monday at 8AM.

 

The great thing about this process is that it allows us to include pre-populated information in the card that saves time. We can automatically include all the information needed to complete the project, rather than having to manually create a card each week.

A preview of our simple card creation automations that keep us on track!

 

Here’s how it works, on your left-hand menu, press “Automations” --- > “Create a New automation”. Here is a preview of what our automations look like.
