This software will provide you with everything you need to plan a strategy for your startup, set it in motion, and successfully reach your goals.
Key Benefits of KeepSolid Goals for a Startup
An application can work well for project management in larger organizations, but is it suited for a startup? When looking for startup management software, one should consider a number of criteria that are more important for startups than for other types of enterprise.
KeepSolid Goals is both easy to learn and easy to master. In addition to the in-app tutorial, there is a Wiki section on our website if you ever need more information about how to manage startups and any other business using our application. And if everything else fails, you can always contact our support and ask any questions you have!
Scalability is essential for any startup software. As a startup, your team and plans are expected to grow rapidly and significantly, and your tools should factor this in. KeepSolid Goals offers easy and affordable ways to scale your teams, strategies, and subscriptions.
The ability to access your startup management software across multiple platforms is quite important, as startups often can’t, and don’t need to, provide their teams with unified work stations. Since KeepSolid Goals is a web-based app, you can access it with pretty much any internet-capable device.
Project management in a startup is no easy job, as the work process in such organizations can at times get chaotic and disorganized. To fix this, KeepSolid Goals offers plenty of task management features, such as Sprints, Kanban boards, worksheets, and reports.
Our tool offers startup managers plenty of features to create and manage teams, add members, assign tasks to specific employees, add comments, assess the performance of teams and individual employees, and more.
As a startup, you want to keep everything simple and in one place. But how to do it with an ever-increasing list of tools in use? By utilizing integration, of course! KeepSolid Goals supports Zapier integration, allowing you to connect it to thousands other apps that your startup might be using.
KeepSolid Goals offers a modern and intuitive interface that’s easy to understand and navigate. You will always find the functionality you need where you’d expect it to be in the app, and will be able to do everything quickly and efficiently.
What should an essential startup software offer in terms of pricing? An option to try it for free, price plans that are accessible for small organizations, flexible price scaling, and a money-back guarantee. What does KeepSolid Goals pricing offer? All of the above!
To start it off, you need to determine what goals you want to achieve. Should your startup be focused on releasing an MVP as fast as possible? Would you like to get some press coverage for your latest product? Or are you currently focused on improving your ROI by optimizing and organizing your working processes?
An Objective doesn’t have to be too specific. It should tell you the direction in which to move, but not the exact steps you will take.
Key Result is like a sub-goal that, once achieved, is expected to bring you closer to meeting your Objective. While your Objective is supposed to be general, Key Results should be more specific. For instance, if your Objective is to grow your business, your Key Results can be to grow revenue to $1M, launch a new product, and reduce churn to <5% through customer success.
To determine Key Results, assess threats and risks that can impact your Objective and define what will allow you to negate them and can get you closer to your Objective. That’s what your Key Results are. Set KPIs for them, and assign team members.
This is where it gets the most specific. Tasks are concrete activities required to reach your Key Results (and as such, should always be related to Key Results). After you define your tasks, appoint team members to them and ensure that your team is aware of task priorities, sequence, and deadlines. In KeepSolid Goals, this can be done with Worksheet, KPIs, and Budget Control features.
Managing your startup with our application is exceptionally easy thanks to this step. KeepSolid Goals provides all sorts of features to achieve your Objective, for instance:
- Kanban board and Timeline to monitor the achievement of your Objective
- Reports to track your Objective status, team performance, and other indicators
- My Tasks tab to control the process of task implementation
Stay tuned to market trends and take advantage of market opportunities or avoid arising problems:
- Update your Key Results when necessary
- Assign new Tasks that can benefit your Objective
When your team completes all Tasks and Key Results set for an Objective, it’s time to learn from your successes and failures. At this final stage, answer the following questions:
- Have you reached your Objective?
- Have you allocated your resources correctly?
- What difficulties did you encounter while working towards your Objective?
- How effective was your team at reaching your Objective?
