The creative process should be exciting, not exhausting. But if you’ve ever found yourself drowning in chaotic feedback loops, lost task assignments, or never-ending approval cycles, well, you’re not alone! Managing creative workflows- whether for design, video production, or marketing- often feels like herding cats.
That’s exactly why ButtonShift was built: to simplify the way creative teams collaborate. Here’s how it tackles three of the biggest workflow challenges creatives face every day.
1. Feedback Chaos? ButtonShift Keeps It Structured
Feedback is an essential part of the creative process, but sometimes, it can also be a nightmare. Ever had a client send revision requests across three different platforms, leaving you scrambling to piece them together? Or worse, receive indistinct feedback like “Highlight it a little more” with no real direction?
How ButtonShift Fixes This:
- Add Annotations & Contextual Comments: Instead of deciphering feedback from scattered emails or messages, ButtonShift lets you drop comments and visual annotations directly on the file. Need the logo moved slightly to the left? Just pin the comment right on the spot.
- Turn Feedback Into Actionable Tasks: No need to copy-paste comments into a to-do list. With one click, you can turn feedback into tasks, assign them to the right person, and set due dates- all within ButtonShift. Cool right?
- All Feedback in One Place: Every revision request, comment, and approval stays inside the same file thread, making it easy to track what’s been changed and what still needs work.

2. Task Overload? Worklist Feature to the Rescue
Even the best feedback is useless if it doesn’t translate into action. One of the biggest challenges creative teams face is managing who’s doing what, by when, and in what order.
When priorities change last minute (which they always do), juggling multiple projects can feel overwhelming.
How ButtonShift Fixes This
- Worklist for Clear Prioritization: Instead of keeping notes or scrambling through emails, the Worklist feature lets you see all tasks in one place, sorted by priority. You know exactly what needs to be done first.
- Assign, Update, and Track Progress Easily: Task assignments don’t get lost in endless email chains. Whether you’re assigning an edit to a video editor or finalizing an ad campaign, tasks are clearly outlined with deadlines and responsibility.
- No More Missed Deadlines: With notifications and due-date tracking, you’ll never hear “I didn’t know this was urgent” again.
3. Stuck in Approval Limbo? Simplify Your Workflow
The final roadblock in creative workflows? Getting things approved.
You send a file. The client requests revisions. You send another version. They reply a week later with “Sorry, missed this!” And the cycle continues.
Does this strike a chord?
How ButtonShift Fixes This
- One Platform for Reviews, Revisions & Approvals: Instead of bouncing between Apps, Drive, and email, everything stays inside ButtonShift Workspace. Share files, get instant feedback, and track approvals in one place.
- Version Control That Works: No more losing track of which version is the latest. Every revision is stacked within the same file thread. For videos, you can even compare versions side by side if they are of the same size.
- Faster Approvals, Less Waiting: Clients can approve files with a single click. No more waiting for ambiguous “Looks good” emails- ButtonShift logs every approval with a timestamp.
