In the recent updates, we have been continuously focusing on smoothing out the small creases in Scoro’s workflows – updating and improving our core functionality to match our clients’ (your) business needs. Here’s what’s new in Scoro.

It’s safe to say the way we work has changed forever. Three-quarters (74%) of professionals expect remote work to become the standard, and we’re seeing more and more companies implementing remote or hybrid working policies. This has been accelerated by the pandemic, but the tide was already starting to turn long before that. The number of employees who work remotely at least once per week has grown by 400% since 2010.

Although social media marketing is currently in vogue, email marketing has long proven to be highly effective at boosting a business’s customer base, building customer loyalty, and reinforcing brands. In particular, Mailchimp has shown itself to be one of the best email marketing platforms for companies in need of email marketing tools.

Marketing agencies are acutely aware that higher efficiency ratios and agency productivity leads to profit. But these are challenging times for marketing professionals, and it is not so easy to realize. With technology and digital marketing evolving so rapidly, working in a highly competitive milieu makes falling behind something to be avoided at all costs. Being effective and efficient is how marketers achieve impactful marketing metrics.

Given the seismic changes in everyone’s lives since March 2020, it’s little surprise that the way we work has become just as radically different. However, the conversation around remote and hybrid working has continued to rage on, especially in the UK. That’s why the team at Scoro wanted to get to the bottom of the situation. We’ve conducted a thorough survey to understand exactly what Brits’ attitudes towards the way they work have been over the past 18 months.

There was a time, not so long ago, when the idea of managing projects remotely would have been laughed out of most offices. Since then, however, a few things have changed. Many businesses are returning to the office after the pandemic, but a full return to work is not what many employees and employers want.

As the world navigates towards the new normal, most companies are rolling out a hybrid working policy. This comes as a report by the UK’s Chartered Institute of Professional Development (CIPD) reveals that two-fifths (40%) of employers expect more than half of their workers to work regularly from home post-pandemic. Hybrid working can improve work-life balance so that staff remain motivated and work better.

Whatever field you work in, whether it’s product development, marketing, or web design, you’ll hear talk about ‘deliverables’. Initially, you might write it off as an example of unnecessary corporate jargon. However, a deliverable is something very definite and concrete. It has a specific meaning and is a crucial aspect of any project or marketing campaign that you should be familiar with.

Why do projects fail? If only there was a simple answer. Even with the best intentions and a highly motivated team, every experienced project manager knows that any number of unforeseen problems and challenges can derail even the best-laid projects. According to a UK-wide survey, 31% of business projects fail at an estimated overall cost of £250 billion to the UK economy. Why?
