Monthly reports are an excellent tool for keeping team members and stakeholders updated on things like project statuses, company goals and milestones, department performance, and a broad range of other pertinent information. However, generating numerous reports each month can often be an overwhelming task. Today, most project managers rely on monthly report templates to streamline this process and ensure that all the most important details are covered.

Does your agency's project management software live up to your expectations? Only 35% of project managers report being somewhat or very satisfied with their organization's project management process — and not having the right tools is a big part of that.

The only reason we can deduce this number is so low is that it seems too time-consuming to commit to.

Here at Teamwork, we love helping organizations improve their approach to projects.

We use emails for business all the time. Transactional emails to share pricing with a prospect, as a meeting follow-up, or as a notification that an item has shipped are common. Email campaigns differ from one-off emails and can make or break important company initiatives. And they don’t just happen: Hitting the right target at the optimum time with the perfect message is no easy feat. Email campaign management's many moving parts can be confusing to execute and oversee.

Over a quarter (26%) of workers struggle to prioritize daily tasks, citing the lack of a system and the effort needed to create one as the major reasons why.

On the surface, email project planning tools may seem like an obvious solution.
