Do you really need a project manager to keep your business running smoothly? It’s a question every growing company faces, and the answer might surprise you. 

Project managers can be game-changers, but they’re not always a must-have. In fact, with the right systems, tools, and workflows in place, you might find you can manage just fine without one. 

Sounds tempting, right? 

But here’s the flip side: skipping a project manager when your processes aren’t dialed in can lead to chaos, missed deadlines, and a whole lot of frustration. 

In this week’s episode of Automate Your Agency, Alane Boyd and Micah Johnson dive into: 

  • The pros and cons of running your business with—or without—a project manager 
  • How to leverage tools like Asana. ClickUp, and Monday.com to streamline operations 
  • Why repeatable systems and automation can be the secret to scaling 
  • And how to recognize when it’s time to bring in dedicated oversight 

Alane also shares a helpful resource to guide your decision-making, our Project Management System Selector Tool, use it to figure out which system best fits your needs! Check it out here: https://bit.ly/3X6EEnj 

The key to growth isn’t about following a one-size-fits-all approach—it’s about finding what works best for *your* team. Whether you’re on the fence about hiring a project manager or just want smarter ways to optimize your agency, this episode has you covered.
