Let’s Eliminate Your Agency Issues

If you're like most agencies you're probably spending way too much time and money every month trying to find and design a project management solution that helps your team get their work done. Unfortunately, the investment still hasn't paid off and your team continues to face chaotic project management.

Lack of Visibility

You can't easily see client health, project progress, profitability, or utilization, and work is delivered inconsistently due to lack of standardized processes.

Chaotic Projects-1

Chaotic Projects

Without a single source of truth, you're left constantly switching between tools like Slack, Google Docs, Sheets, and email.

A Frustrated Team-1

A Frustrated Team

The features of Teamwork and ClickUp are exciting, but spending months with trial-and-error setups and half-built processes isn't. 

Here's How We Help

Let's be honest, fixing your project management woes involves more than just the technology. We'll lead you through our proven process to help you choose the right tool, design your processes, and establish healthy team habits - canceling chaos and creating clarity for your team.

Step 1: Blueprint

We begin with a 2-week project management blueprint. We'll identify current operational inefficiencies, document your goals, and design a technical blueprint and implementation plan to help you 4-10x your return on investment.

We'll lead your team through the technical implementation, process development, team training, and healthy habit building to lift the weight off your shoulders and help you solve your project management woes once and for all.

Step 3: Optimize & Reports

Lastly, we'll serve as your fractional project management champion and provide:

  • Training and accountability for your team.

"We tried every PM tool out there, but could never get project management just right for our team."

"We were constantly switching between Slack, Google Docs, Sheets, and email because we didn’t have a single source of truth for our agency work."

Our agency has tried many project management tools over the years, but when we migrated to ClickUp we finally felt like we got it right. But hiring ZenPilot to help us implement it was an even better decision -- easily the best investment we made in our agency's growth. In the year since implementing ClickUp, our business has doubled, and our project management systems and structure have been able to adapt and scale with us

How much does it cost to work with ZenPilot?

We'd begin answering this question by asking "How much is inefficient operations currently costing you?", but...

To briefly answer the question, a full transformation can be $25,000 to $75,000, but most of our clients can get started for as little as $3,000.

However, even if you do have an appropriate budget, we won't move forward if we can't all see a clear path to achieving a 4-10x year one ROI for you.

When you have a conversation with ZenPilot, we'll walk through your situation, your goals, and the best path to achieving the outcomes you want.

Based on that, we will determine if you can get the ROI that would justify using our services.

Booking a call with us is completely FREE, so let's start there and see what we can improve in your business!

What results can we expect to see? How do you measure results?

That depends on your goals and your plan, but it's not uncommon for us to see up to 300% increase in efficiency for our agency clients.

But that's just one example. Working with us will allow you to reliably measure + improve a variety of agency metrics.

Our main tool for measuring success is called the Agency Operator Scorecard. The Scorecard gives you a clear view of key data about your agency (target vs actual), such as utilization, earnings/FTE, net margin, PM technology costs, and more. The Scorecard will show you how much money you're leaving on the table by letting underutilization and inefficiencies persist in your organization. Working with us will allow you to get that money back.

To see an example of the Agency Operator Scorecard, book a call with us.

How long does the process take?

That depends entirely on your stated goals, but most agencies will undergo a complete transformation in 10-12 weeks and will have reached 4x ROI by 12 months.

Do you only work with agencies?

Not exactly! We also work with in-house marketing teams (who often see themselves as an "internal agency")—one example is the marketing crew at LegalZoom.

And we work with businesses who do client work that may not necessarily see themselves as agencies, such as accounting firms.

While it's true that our expertise runs deepest in the agency space (and we have a library of 200+ plug-and-play process templates for that specific context), we have lots of advice and specific frameworks to share for any business that wants to put an end to chaotic project management and stop hopping from one PM tool to the next.

Book a free consultation with us and let's find out if we're a fit for you!

Do we have to use Teamwork or ClickUp?

Technically, no. You can work through the 1-3-5 Formula with whatever tool you currently use.  In fact, we wrote a guide on how to choose the best project management tool for your organization.  However, in our experience working with hundreds of agencies, ClickUp and Teamwork stand out as the most versatile and easy-to-use tools for agencies.
