FOR A marketing team, department or an Agency
Workflow are pre-built set of Milestones, Task Lists and Tasks that you can easily apply to a new project (also know as a pod in Brightpod). Think of workflows as templates to help you work faster and smarter. Why duplicate similar tasks for another marketing project when you can easily clone them?
You can even add your workflows and apply them to new projects that you create.
Receive a daily (7am) email notifying you of what happened the previous day and a list of your overdue work. By default, everyone in your team will receive the daily digest email. Great way to keep everyone in the loop and also aware of their overdue work.
Your team members could be working on multiple tasks across many projects in a given week. The Work Priority List will allow you to look at a task list under any team member, drag and drop their priority and notify them via email of the set priority.
Recurring tasks lets you repeat tasks. Create a task followed by “every”
and one of the following: day/ week/ month/ year/ Monday/ Tuesday etc.
For example: Check Google Analytics every week, Send clients reports every Monday, Publish an editorial calendar every month.
Brightpod will do the rest to remind you.
The activity page shows everyone a real-time view of what is happening within a project. You need to play catch-up? Just glance at the activity page for a particular project and see what everyone is working on.
A list of all your team members neatly displayed so you always know who is part of your project. Brightpod is permission-based - only people who are part of your project will be able to access that project. Each project has one project lead (marked in a green circle).
When you enter time you can mark the entry as Billable or Non-billable. Billable time is time that you want to bill your clients towards.
The Insight scorecards gives you a quick total of all projects (pods), milestones, tasks and time across all your work.
Brightpod supports attaching files to task and message comments via Google Drive, Dropbox and Box. Your file will still reside in the storage platform of your choice. Brightpod will only link to that file. This eliminates the need to constantly update a task or a message with the latest version of the file.
The interface is clean and simple. If you run a business or manage a team of people you should definitely look into Brightpod for your next business project or marketing campaign.
Although Brightpod offers a number of other useful productivity tools, it’s the platform’s editorial calendar that really stands out.
