• We had limited visibility into the current
workload of the team, or what’s coming
next
• Multiple systems and formats for
requests and different project
management tools
• Too many requests coming in to properly
manage against capacity
• No way to report a realistic activity level
• We couldn’t plan ahead
• Always felt like we were in “rush” mode

Traditional “waterfall”
• Great for big projects
• Lots of detailed documentation
• Less flexibility
• Difficult for ongoing “request
based” work
• Tools were harder to adapt to our
needs
Agile
• Very flexible
• Short timeframes helped us
focus only on what's
immediately ahead
• Visual Kanban boards
• Ability to shift priorities

What was attractive about Agile Marketing
Responding to change over following a plan
Rapid iterations over Big-Bang campaigns
Testing and data over opinions and conventions
Numerous small experiments over a few large bets
Individuals and interactions over target markets
Collaboration over silos and hierarchy

• 2 week sprints starting on a Tuesdays
• Planning meeting was the start of each
sprint to go over what is coming up over
the next 2 weeks
• A Sprint Review and Retrospective
meeting was at the end of each sprint
• Our stand up meeting is held every day to
review what we did yesterday, what we
are working on today, communicate with
requestors, and set the priorities of the
day

• Expect lots of process questions
• Not only a review of work being accomplished, but the processes used
• Are there new issues that came up during the sprint on processes?
• How can we make this better?

• 3 points a day for 5 people, over 2 week period
Capacity = 150 Points per sprint
• We would accept all the work and set points to each task
= total work requested
• When there was more on the board than could get done, the
extended team would work out priorities
• Visibility gave us a great way to set expectations
Capacity can change each sprint. Ex. I have one member of my team that will be out for 2
days, that’s 6 points off the board = 144 points for the sprint.
