A website project stalls most often while waiting on the client: page copy, logins for the old host, photos, answers to small questions. Those requests scatter across email threads, and the developer and designer end up asking the same thing twice.

How web design agencies set up Tandem App

  1. Open #site-greenway-dental for the client conversation and #greenway-build for the internal team, and connect GitHub so pushes and pull requests post into the build channel.
  2. Build a task list for content collection ("Home page copy", "Team photos", "Opening hours"), assigned to the client contact with due dates, so missing items are visible to everyone.
  3. Keep wireframes, the sitemap and approved mock-ups in Docs folders by round, with image previews and comments on each file so design feedback stays on the design.
  4. Write the launch as a single task with a checklist: DNS change, redirects, forms tested, analytics added, old site backed up.

Clients and outside people

Invite the client's project lead with Full access so they can tick off content tasks themselves. Give access an end date a few weeks after launch, covering the snagging period.
