We're a Partner That Understands How Agencies Operate

While running our own agency and building our own project management system, we made a key discovery—agencies need a consistent operating framework (and process templates), clear rules of engagement, and consistent accountability more than they need another project management platform.

Our Story1

We've Walked A Mile In Your Shoes

Before starting ZenPilot, we built our own agency—GuavaBox.

While growing GuavaBox, we experienced all the common challenges of serving clients, managing projects, and developing the agency infrastructure to rapidly scale a cohesive team while delivering consistent client outcomes.

As we grew, we struggled to maintain the visibility we needed to run the business. Along with that, work began to slip through the cracks, we lacked a single source of truth, and client deadlines were not being met.

We Built Our Own Project Management System To Overcome Our Agency Challenges

To help overcome our own agency challenges and streamline our operations, we created DoInbound, a process and project management platform, launching it for other agencies in 2013. 

As we bootstrapped DoInbound and grew to 500+ agency customers, we began consulting agencies needing extra process and project management help. 

But this consulting led to our key discovery: agencies need a consistent operating framework (and process templates), clear rules of engagement, and consistent accountability more than they need another project management platform.

Creating Agency Clarity is Our Focus

In late 2017, we made the decision to exit the software side, partner with ClickUp, and invest all our energy into helping agencies streamline their operations to build more productive, profitable, and healthy teams.

So that's our focus.

We exist to build the systems agencies need to create clarity and build more productive, profitable, and healthy teams. 

Everything we do in our business and for our clients revolves around canceling chaos and replacing that chaos with clarity. 

Need some help?

We've guided thousands of agencies to successfully increase their productivity and profits. Book a call to see how we can help you build a more productive, profitable, and healthy agency in ClickUp.

I'm so grateful that I found ZenPilot because what I desperately needed was a group of people who understood ClickUp inside and out and understood the best practices of project organization and creative team management.

Working with ZenPilot was an absolute dream. 

Melanie Brook
Principal, Creative Operations at LegalZoom

ZenPilot came in with a framework, implementation, and training resources to move our agency through a lot of change in the way our 30 member team does things....change management that is super hard like task and time tracking! 

They really know ClickUp, and we do some crazy complicated things in there. If you need help scaling and measuring operational performance in your agency, ZenPilot is a great partner to get it done. 

Ben Labay
CEO, Speero

The team at ZenPilot has been a godsend for our business.

I am so grateful for their guidance through it all and could not imagine money better spent on a system that runs our day-to-day completely.

Find the budget, make it happen, hire ZenPilot. You will not regret it.
