HoneyBook for Agencies: Manage Projects, Clients & Teams in One Place

Whether you run a creative studio, a marketing team, or a service-based agency — you know the pain: multiple clients, scattered communication, missed deadlines, and “wait, where’s that contract?”

HoneyBook solves that.

More than just a CRM, HoneyBook is a full-service clientflow platform that helps you run your agency like a system, not a circus. In 2025, it’s one of the top tools for small to mid-sized agencies that want to scale without chaos.

Here’s how HoneyBook helps you manage clients, projects, and teams in one place.

👥 Manage Clients at Scale

As an agency, you don’t just work with one client at a time. You’re juggling 5, 10, or 20+ active clients with different timelines, deliverables, and expectations.

HoneyBook makes it manageable:

Key Features:

• Project workspaces for each client
• Visual pipeline to track where each client is (inquiry → booked → active → offboarded)
• Client-facing portals to centralize messages, files, invoices
• Smart Files to send proposals, contracts, and invoices in one click

📌 Pro tip: Tag clients by service type or campaign for faster filtering.

📁 Stay on Top of Projects (Without Google Sheets)

Tired of tracking projects in outdated spreadsheets or scattered Asana boards? HoneyBook turns chaos into clarity.

Project Tools Include:

• Task lists with due dates
• Internal notes for your team
• File storage (PDFs, images, strategy decks, etc.)
• Timeline tracking and automation
• Custom pipeline stages like: Discovery → Kickoff → In Progress → Review → Complete

Every project lives in its own clean workspace. You’ll never say “Did we send the invoice yet?” again.
