Research Reveals Best Practices of High-Performance Marketing and Creative Teams
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) August 19, 2014 -- ProofHQ, the global leader in online proofing for designers and marketing professionals, today announced the results of its research to discover how different types of creative organizations integrate people, processes and platforms to manage projects and the level of efficiency they achieve in completing them.
“Today’s marketing and creative organizations have evolved into highly-productive teams,” said Mat Atkinson, CEO of ProofHQ. “The data shows the best performing teams have taken an agile approach to collaborate more efficiently, improve project completion speed, and increase marketing effectiveness.”
The survey asked digital marketers, project managers, creative directors and designers, as well as line-of-business executives, how they manage creative teams and the tools and methodology they use during the review and approval process. The survey revealed that high-performance creative teams that deliver projects on time have similar characteristics, specifically:
- Project management is a defined role on the team
- Some part of the workflow is automated
- Review and approval process is adapted to the type of content and people involved
- Project management software is administered by marketing more than IT
Additionally, the survey results revealed tangible, actionable opportunities that even the best-performing marketing teams can make to be more agile and efficient when it comes to collaboration and output.
