ClickUp, Slack & Drive

Owner: Bryan · The working tools around the docs. Each has one job; keep them in their lane.

ClickUp: tasks and tracking

  • Holds tasks, deadlines, ownership, and the per-client onboarding checklist (copied from a template per client).
  • ClickUp tracks whether we did it; this manual explains how. Keep the checklist steps aligned with the Client Onboarding SOP so neither drifts.
  • Durable decisions do not live only in a task comment. Record them in the relevant docs page.

Slack: discussion

  • Fast decisions and day-to-day discussion.
  • When a Slack thread settles something durable (a process change, a client rule), write it into the SOP or Gotchas. Slack is not the record.
  • One channel per client; keep client-specific talk in the client channel.

Google Drive: files

  • Files, exports, creative, and source assets.
  • Client Shopify exports usually arrive here first, then get dropped into the client repo's team-data/ for the Data Refresh.
  • Version-controlled code belongs in GitHub, not Drive.
