Different teams need different processes. And within a company, having teams use different processes makes sense — until those teams have to work together. How can teams seamlessly work together using processes that are still tailored to suit their styles, needs, and personalities? The answer: Wrike.
Here are three ways Wrike’s marketing and design teams use Wrike to make working together a breeze.

1. Feature: Request forms
Result: Streamlined task setup
Wrike’s customizable request forms are designed to enable efficiency using structured communication. Here’s how it works at Wrike: the design team created a request form that would provide the information they need to complete every request. Then, the marketer that needs an asset created or edited simply fills in the design request form. When they click submit, it automatically sets up a task, initiates dependencies, stores critical details, and helps tasks move faster and more efficiently to completion.
Gone are the days of confused designers or frustrated marketers — everyone stays on the same page, no matter how complicated the task or project might be.

2. Feature: Proofing and approvals
Result: Accelerated task completion
The design process is iterative and involves several rounds of edits before reaching the final version. In the past, that meant long email threads with confusing layers of edits. But Wrike's proofing and approval feature has been a game changer in streamlining this process.
This feature enables team members to give real-time feedback, make precise edits directly on the design drafts, and provide approval. Seriously, you just click on the document where you need an edit to be made, type in your comment, and hit send — and off it goes, directly to the person who can implement the feedback! This instant collaboration speeds up the approval time, reduces rework, and prevents essential feedback from being lost in long email threads.
And if your task hasn’t been accepted after a few days, Wrike’s automation bot will remind you — and it will also remind designers of tasks that haven’t yet been started. That automation magic ensures we meet all our deadlines.
3. Feature: Custom item types
Result: Increased innovation in brainstorming
Every quarter, our teams get together for brainstorming sessions to generate creative ideas for new banners, landing pages, and other assets. Curious about what we use for such a collaborative task? Wrike’s custom item types. They perfectly allow us to collect ideas, divide them into categories, and push them through Wrike’s custom workflows. Then we use our Board view to track our design experiments while keeping everyone in the loop about the tasks’ progress with a transparent and inclusive atmosphere.

“With just a few clicks, a new project begins, allowing the design team immediate access to all the crucial details needed for our work. Once the task is completed, we easily switch to a Board view to review all our achievements in a visually convenient format.”
