Adapt Sprints for non-programmers and individuals

Adapt Sprints for non-programmers and individuals

Agile & Scrum are great tools and methods to get more done in the same amount of time, but right now Sprints feels like it's built specifically to serve programmers and developers.

What if I want to use it for Content Marketing?

I'm going to manage the creation of blogs, podcasts, social media posts, online courses and more using Sprints. Right now, though, there's features that have no relevance to me (like github integration) that I'd love to hide, and other features I'd really love to have (like a global scrum board.

As a solo entrepreneur, it would also be useful to see this able to be customized for an individual. This means hiding features that are only relevant for a team, like the team-based report features, and maybe turning the "meetings" module into more of a journal or note-taking area.

Also, we need to look beyond "the project". For example, in content marketing, you might have a theme for the month. Within that theme are a few "content ideas" you're going to develop. Each "content idea" will inspire a podcast episode or two and a few blog posts that you'll then want to plan, create, and publish. Each of THOSE will then have tasks, work items, issues, etc that will need to be worked out.

What I'm saying is - we need something like "epics" that can work across multiple projects. We need to be able to group epics into a larger "theme". and it'd be REALLY nice if we could view related projects on the SAME scrum board. What if I'm working on a podcast and blog post at the same time... but they're each their own project? I can't have them in the same sprint. That sucks... they're related. It might make sense for me to work them at the same time.

Is there a way we can make this happen?

      • Bug Viewer for Zoho Sprints

        Project managers work on multiple sprints simultaneously, and given the potential for a number of bugs that can crop up, it is helpful if the bugs can be viewed in a single location. This is made possible by the Bug Viewer for Zoho Sprints extension.
