"There is very little guessing work once you’ve set up the recommended hierarchy that ZP customizes for you during the Blueprint process.

Less energy is spent on trying to remember little details or wondering what tasks should take priority. We’ve shifted from reactive to fairly proactive. I have confidence in my team’s ability to get work done, and if I have any doubt, I have full visibility. It allows for a lot of peace and open space to think deeply."

"This isn't working with an agency or consultancy where you just go through an onboarding process and they do it all for you. And rightly so, right? This is the baseline, it's the foundation, it's the engine of your business. You've got to be involved.

But after the two-three months, once that period is over, everything is just so much better. It's the only way I can describe it."

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
