When a startup is composed of only a few people, the small team that started the company, it’s easy to manage everyone and everything. You’ve got your first few clients, and they’re happy with your work, paying all their bills on time and referring your services to other potential clients. But as your startup grows — with more staff, more clients, and more money to keep track of — it can be a challenge to manage all these aspects efficiently.

But there are ways to make this process easier, so that you don’t lose too much time or money. It’s all about ensuring you use collaboration, effective lead generation, and strict budgeting. Here’s how:

Collaboration

It doesn’t matter if you’re working with 5, 25, or 75 employees; any team, regardless of size, needs to have the right tools and resources to successfully collaborate. Teams, whether they are working alongside one another in the same space or remote, need to have awareness of the initiatives their colleagues are pursuing. Yes, there are many collaborative tools available that allow teams to message one another throughout the day and share files, but what these tools often lack is context.

Cage is a new platform that enables contextual collaboration. Through Cage, teams have the ability to gather feedback in real time, assign tasks, edit images, and distribute media files, all on one platform. By facilitating the entirety of a project, from the initial brainstorm to a final review before a video or platform is published, Cage ensures that everyone involved in the projects has full insight into updates and strategic pivots.

Regardless of the medium, every project takes on a life of its own. More often than not, facets shift over time, and these changes and discussions are often implemented across several platforms, which often leads to confusion and oversight. Cage helps teams avoid this pitfall and, as a result, empowers them to collaborate more effectively and efficiently.
