0:01 Hey, I'm Jed, founder of Hydrant, and I want to give you a quick intro into what is our ClickUp punch card.
0:07 First, what is ClickUp? They call it the everything app for work. It's an incredible project management solution for tasks, portfolios, Gantt charts.
0:19 I started learning project management almost 15 years ago, and we did everything on Microsoft Project. We used Primavera P6 and we used other software tools that have been largely replaced by more modern solutions like ClickUp.
0:34 It's an incredible tool. It's not very expensive in my opinion, especially considering what you get for it. This business, uh, pricing really gets you everything you could possibly imagine, consolidates a ton of other tools.
0:48 It's an innovative company. They're constantly rolling out new solutions or improving features. Um, and we love it. So first of all, what is a punch card?
0:59 Our goal with the punch card for Clarity is ClickUp is basically providing a preset amount of hours that you can check off as you use them.
1:06 Usually it's eight. And that means that we support busy business leaders with the specialization of ClickUp's setup. We're really good at it.
1:15 Our senior project managers are, we're all, we're a verified ClickUp consultant. We're a verified ClickUp power user, meaning we're in the top 10% of users globally for ClickUp.
1:25 And we've been trusted by companies worldwide to help them implement ClickUp and help them grow. Really, you know, make their teams more effective, get projects back on track and all of that other good stuff.
1:37 Some key features for ClickUp I'd like to mention really quick, um, dashboards, project plans, task management, team management, uh, forms, uh, public forms.
1:49 They're really good for sharing views or sharing your project plan dynamically with outside parties. Their guest feature is really powerful.
1:56 So for every single user that you pay for, I believe you get seven additional. That's really cool. Um, workload management, timelines, mind maps, documents. If you use a tool like Notion or something like that, you can actually do a lot of that in here.
2:11 Um, it's really an incredible tool. Um, time tracking is another popular, popular one. And then for leaders and managers, which is a lot of like our customer base, you also can see a pulse of who's working on what, who's more active in ClickUp, who's tracking things in ClickUp, all of that kind of good
2:29 stuff. So it can be a single source of. Truth for your entire business. Um, one other thing, we do have a free guide for people who want to set up ClickUp on their own.
2:39 You can click here and you can get the free guide. It's a large collection of all of our insights and how we do things in ClickUp, kind of our best practices after we're, after working with dozens of different agencies, startups, and enterprises.
2:54 I'll also add that, going back to our ClickUp setup, just a little bit of how we do it. Meet with you to make sure we understand what it is you're looking for.
3:04 And then the popular things are setting up a workflow, uh, say a marketing team or a content team, uh, or an engineering team.
3:12 We'll train your team as well. We can do one-on-one training to help people really get on track with how to use ClickUp effectively.
3:19 Project planning, sometimes folks want to use an hour or two of their ClickUp punch card just to sit with them and help them plan out the project.
3:27 And we can show you how to use AI as well in terms of how to effectively Integrate AI into your workflow because it's a tremendous tool for project managers.
3:35 And of course, you can always buy more hours. Um, we also have API, uh, options for folks who want to see us connect to ClickUp.
3:43 We know the ClickUp API very well with our in-house engineering team. We can help connect, uh, to other apps that you might use, other software platforms you might use, say Gusto or, uh, QuickBooks or Jobber or whatever it is, um, we can help scope that out and build that out for you.
4:00 So that's also there. How does it work? Like I said before, we do an initial consult. We then kind of start using our hours and then we really think iteration is the key to, uh, getting ClickUp to work the best.
4:12 Um, usually once a team kind of gets settled in with the workflow, then there's some, some improvements and we can do that too.
4:19 So forms creation, templates, uh, workspace hierarchy, this is a big one, just helping you kind of get set up initially.
4:25 Automations are an incredible tool. Click up if you want to use those and I think the goal of all of this is, you know, we've worked with so many different kinds of businesses, different industries, we've done all kinds of customized solutions, um, customers love us.
4:40 You can kind of check those out, um, and reach out to us to get going. I think the biggest thing for folks that we find is really just feeling like they can see directly how their teams are executing on work.
4:54 So it really brings a lot of peace of mind for folks who need to spend more time on sales or more time on marketing or more time on product.
5:00 Thanks for watching.
