We color code our folders according to the clients session line. This is a quick way to look for a specific client in the bin. If I am looking for a senior who is getting an announcement made, I just search through the purple folders in the press design bin! The folders hold paperwork for the client's order. We also will include client information, emails, paper trails, and their full order along with changes and additions.
Organizing our orders this way is not only visually helpful, but an easy way to always keep up with the status of the client's order(s). This may be helpful for you when it comes to quickly finding the progress of your orders.

What a great idea! You guys should put together something to outline how you organize your orders. workflow, etc. And then you should email me telling me how to buy it!! Lol.

LOVE this! I am just hiring a studio manager and am going to have her take this post as a sample to create our workflow! Thanks!!!
