“The first creative project management software… designed with creatives.”
Fact: few creatives like admin. Yet, in many advertising agencies, communication consultancies, DTP companies, much time is wasted in project follow up, from initial quote stage – and their numerous edits – to final invoicing, through artwork purchasing, outside supplier quote integration & mark up, and the management of the dreaded 'time sheets'.
Faced with a growing demand from agencies themselves for a simple yet powerful solution that would allow them to focus on their creative work, we almost naturally developed BeCreative. BeCreative is the first creative project management software based on FileMaker, the most powerful and flexible database development tool. A feature which may sound trivial in other, PC dominated industries, but is of acute importance in the graphical & design industries, FileMaker, and therefore BeCreative, run in both Mac and PC environments.
BeCreative has been developed with end-user involvement from the outset, from creatives and lay-out teams to accounts and production people. This was the only way we could integrate, right from the start, the whole range of features expected from these teams and agencies.
BeCreative is actually based on a careful analysis of the most frequent processes encountered in these agencies: writing up quotes and offers, handling external suppliers, purchasing artwork, following up detailed time sheets from accounts, planners, creatives, designers, lay out teams, production people, and of course detailed handling of in & out invoicing.
BeCreative will simply allow you to focus on your core business: being creative.
