Project Management for Digital Agencies
At digital agencies, projects are your bread and butter, whether your specialty is apps, websites, CX or any of the other many forms of design that exist. You might even already have qualified project managers amongst your staff already. Nevertheless, you have a lot to gain from going to The Advice Stand for our expertise in project management.
Whether you’ve got project managers already and would like to keep their skills sharp, or you have winged it until now and would like help in establishing an in-house project management capability, The Advice Stand has everything you need.
What are our project management services for digital agencies?
At The Advice Stand, we understand the fundamentals of a successful project, such as scoping documents, status updates, agreed timelines and a consensus around methods of working. That is why our goal is to:
Understand the workings of your company, as well as the problems you are facing and the clients you service
Identify the systems and methods that will help solve your problems
Implement those solutions
Train you every step of the way, so that these solutions become integrated into your business, not just a temporary band aid solution
No matter what your operating style is; whether you’re agile through and through, or you like to be dynamic and flexible, project management is a core requirement in the design industry, which is why we offer our expert services to you.
Why is project management important for digital agencies?
Project management is important for digital agencies because they both operate around the same ethos; in which one party collaborates with another to produce a product that meets their needs. Communication is key, and poor project management will easily kill a project.
Therefore, if there are any problems encumbering your project manager, or worse, if you don’t have a project manager at all, you need to fix these problems immediately or your work will suffer. That is where we come in, as we have the project management expertise to solve your problems in a timely manner.
What pains can arise for digital agencies without a qualified project manager?
The pains that arise from digital agencies with poor project management certainly sound familiar, as they include:
Scope creep
Budget slips
Unnecessary overtime
Dissatisfied clients
Disenfranchised employees
We don’t need to tell you how bad these problems can get. That’s why we, at The Advice Stand, will work with you to make sure that you keep on top of your project management, offering long term solutions in which we will guide you every step of the way.
Do you provide project management training for digital agencies?
We provide a project management training course that comes in two different iterations:
Informal coaching, in which we guide clients throughout the project life cycle, resulting in more confidence and stability once their project wraps up
Formal coaching, in which we offer larger training sessions and workshops to help hone project management skills as well as fine-tune methodologies so that they cater to your environment.
