Getting people to work together is pretty challenging.
There are a lot of moving parts and ways to set things up.
Some tools work better for some things than others.
If all you are using is chat to run your business...
You're almost guaranteed to hit frequent problems and a growth ceiling due to the information scrolling by.
A few of which are important.
Most of which is not.
But it is often difficult to tell the difference between the two on such chats.
Ask any parent with kids' sports being run with WhatsApp.
Some data you want to be persistent.
The important bits.
Not scrolling away.
Like - who is working on what.
This means the team can see the current status of whats being done and what's being produced.
Yes, there is a energy cost to tracking what's being worked on.
Both in documenting steps and updating status.
But when it is done, everyone working on a project can see:
- The work being done
- The order it is being done in
- The results being produced
- The current status of each step
I'm building out a short funnel for a client.
An optin page for a free product and a paid offer on the thank you page.
We used AI to write the initial copy (ojoy.ai), and my team and I edited it.
When the copy was finalized, I met with my build team to produce it.
We split the original copy into a Google Doc for each specific page.
We tracked the backend software link and the front-facing visible page link.
Yes, doing this takes a little time, but it's 10x faster than finding these links later.
You can see exactly how we organize everything on a MagicBoard here:
We will be live with this tomorrow - from start to finish in 2 weeks.
Oddly, the AI writing was fast, but time was still required to set the offers, edit the copy, and build the pages.
The MagicBoard design is a consistent method for running ALL our systems.
It allows us to do the work required without having to design a new way of managing work whenever something needs to be done.
