Problem

Retainers and actuals drift apart?

Retainer entitlements live in decks, while producers track tasks elsewhere and finance reconciles hours at month end—so no one spots over-delivery until margin slips.

Solution

Flowtly codifies retainers with deliverable limits, rate cards, and change rules. As producers log work, burn, allocations, and invoices update automatically so AMs, finance, and clients see the same numbers.

Problem

Media pacing isn’t tied to delivery?

Spend, creative throughput, and client approvals live in different systems, so pacing calls rely on screenshots and stale spreadsheets.

Solution

Flowtly pairs media KPIs with delivery status and budgets. Dashboards show pacing against scope, required approvals, and billing triggers so AMs act before underspend or overburn hits invoices.

Problem

Creative bandwidth is guesswork?

Producer gut-feel drives resourcing because work type, channel mix, and seniority aren’t tied to a central plan.

Solution

Use Flowtly workloads to model briefs by channel and role. Capacity auto-updates from time tracking and bookings, so you see which squad or skill hits limits before saying yes to changes.

Problem

Contractor access and NDAs scattered?

Freelancers join via chat, get tool access ad hoc, and no one tracks NDA status or offboarding—risking leaks and compliance gaps.

Solution

Onboard contractors in Flowtly with NDAs, asset checklists, and time-boxed access tasks. Offboarding workflows revoke credentials, collect files, and log history so legal and ops stay covered.

Problem

Assets and versions scattered across tools?

Design files, exports, and copy decks live in Figma, Drives, and email threads—so teams ship wrong versions and clients can’t see approvals.

Solution

Flowtly keeps briefs, versions, and approvals together. Asset checklists link to the right folder, every file has a status, and client approvals sit beside what’s shipped for a clean audit trail.

FAQ

Marketing & advertising FAQs

How Flowtly handles retainers, scopes, and creative toolchains.

Can Flowtly track both retainers and project-based work?

Yes. Run retainers with entitlements next to fixed-fee or production projects. The same approvals, time tracking, and billing rules keep AMs and finance aligned.

Can we forecast utilization by channel/team?

Yes—once you capture current work. Flowtly rolls time tracking and bookings into channel- and role-based capacity so you see when squads hit limits before overpromising.

How do creatives log time and deliverables without friction?

Use lightweight timers, checklists, or Slack commands. Flowtly attaches files and approvals automatically so producers never chase status.

Does Flowtly pull performance data for reporting?

Connect ad platforms or BI dashboards via API. KPIs appear next to scope and budgets so account teams discuss results with the right context.

How does Flowtly handle contractor access/NDAs?

Contractor NDAs, credentials, and access tasks live in one checklist. You get a full history of who signed, which tools they received, and when access was revoked.

Can we combine retainers and production projects?

Model retainers alongside production scopes, allocate hours or budget by channel, and monitor burn per client with live warnings.
