Reportei&#8217;s Timeline lets you do just that!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Released in 2018, our Timeline helps you use data and your marketing actions in a project to tell a story. That makes smooth communication with decision-makers, the agencies, company leaders, or the team working on the project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, it&#8217;s a more practical and comprehensive way of recording the milestones of each project and how invaluable that makes your services.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we cover the timeline basics and three examples of how to use it.

These can be campaigns, outstanding results, important meetings, or others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This tool gives you a clearer picture of the client&#8217;s journey in the agency, strings events together, and makes the information you deliver to decision-makers more straightforward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the reports show you data and let you compare between periods, the Timeline puts results into context, building a history for each project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, besides simplifying communication,\u00a0 it&#8217;s a great resource for centralizing and managing data in companies.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><strong>How does the Timeline work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can access the Timeline in any of Reportei\u2019s plans and create one for each project. You can also update records for any customers you\u2019ve integrated into the platform, no matter what goal you\u2019ve set for the timeline.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Events are called milestones, referring to strategic meetings, achievements, important campaign history, or others, as you can see below: <\/span><\/p>\n<p><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-28737\" src=\"https:\/\/reportei.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Captura-de-Tela-2023-04-06-as-10.41.22-259x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"427\" height=\"495\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reportei.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Captura-de-Tela-2023-04-06-as-10.41.22-259x300.png 259w, https:\/\/reportei.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Captura-de-Tela-2023-04-06-as-10.41.22-885x1024.png 885w, https:\/\/reportei.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Captura-de-Tela-2023-04-06-as-10.41.22.png 1077w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also place milestones in categories to help you identify the event type and channels.

Here are three good examples. Keep reading!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Creating a project history<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we mentioned earlier, Timelines are a great way of centralizing project information and sharing it with team leaders and other members. That will keep everyone on the same page and help internal communication flow smoothly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, you can add milestones for strategy meetings, the offset and end of campaigns, and reports presented to decision-makers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, this process contributes to managing knowledge and makes any changes in the team easier.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>2. Sharing results with customers<\/strong> <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second way of using the Timeline is to share results with clients. Having a history helps you track the evolution of your project more easily and manage expectations for future actions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another way to use the Timeline to relay results to clients is to record data and project progression faster. That way, decision-makers won\u2019t have to wait for monthly reports.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s easier to follow up on and ok action or necessary changes quickly. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><strong>3. Registering specific campaigns<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a client\u2019s company works with product launches and seasonal campaigns, the planning, execution, and result analysis should be recorded.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What better way to do that than by using a Timeline? It makes the process visual, and you can refer to it when planning campaigns for insight into what worked and how to get better results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you like reading about our Timeline and how to use it on the go?
